Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!! I just bought tickets for the Seattle show in August. I saw you last year at the Idol concert but am SUPER excited to see your personal tour. Thanks for fitting us in in Seattle! Smiling

Hey David! Yes, you, the one who was on stage. Not any of those random other Davids in the audience. Smiling I had the pleasure of seeing you and the band in Lansing last week. Brilliant! You may crack yourself up, but rest assured you crack the rest of us up too. Wish the concert had been longer, but it's always good to leave 'em wanting more, eh? Anyhoo, I have a burning question...

Dude! How on earth did you manage to woo Animal away from the Muppet Show??? What a coup.

Seriously, The Drummer [capitalized because I don't know his name because you didn't introduce your band, tsk tsk] was almost as much fun to watch as you were. Totally reminiscent of my favorite Muppet, what with the wildly flailing arms and hair and all.

You said you'd come back to Common Ground next year. I'll hold you to that, see if I don't! Meanwhile, cheers, and let the good times roll.

i was looking for a presale password for spokane concert aug 25th at the knitting factory. i have tryed radio stations even knitting factory. no luck i would really appreciate it. thanks

I hope their are plans for you to come to canada. I am quite literally dying to see you in concert and my parents will not let me go to America to see you! Plz, plz, plz, plz * gets to knees* plz, plz, plz come to canada soon!

Does anyone know if there are any plans for David to come to the UK, I have been a fan since Day 1 and would give anything to see him live!
xxxx

THIS WAS THE BEST SHOW I'VE EVER BEEN TO. HE WAS VERY CLOSE TO HIS CROWD, IT WAS THE BEST....I WILL MAKE EVERY SHOW I CAN. ALSO PLEASE COME BACK TO NEW ORLEANS. THANKS

What a show! It was awesome. One of the best concerts I have seen in a long time. The venue is small so David Cook was close to the audience. He looks like he really enjoys performing, and the performance was packed with enegry. Many of my friends couldn't make the show because it sold out so quickly.

Thanks David for a great show. COME BACK TO NEW ORLEANS!!!!!

Hey David,

Just a great big HELLO all the way from Scotland!! I love your music and your soul. I listen to your album driving to work - the best part of the day ... If only you could tour in the UK so I could hear you live!!

Thousands of miles away Smiling
Best wishes

I'm so glad that you decided to come to Amarillo, TX! We don't get very many great concerts here, so this is a real treat! I saw on the American Idol tour last year in Tulsa, OK with my great aunt, cousin, and my mom. We had a great time! I'm really looking forward to tonight's concert! I know it's going to be great! Maybe I'll get lucky and get to meet you tonight! Hope you have a great time here!

Jill J. Smiling

I heard something on the radio once but didn't get all the details?? I missed the last one in March! Sad
If anyone saw something, please LMK. Thanks!

Anyone know how I can get 1 ticket to David Cook sold out concert in Santa Fe June 30th?
I'm so bummed I just heard about it.
maybe it would be ok to leave my e-mail ruth702@aol.com

Thanks

Crap... I saw dates in Colorado, why not swing by Utah? There ARE FANS IN UTAH!!

On a side note, reading some of the comments makes me laugh.... I saw someone mention no show in Charlotte NC? I am in Utah and my sister lives in Charlotte, NC. I rarely travel, but DID make the trip from Utah to Charlotte at the end of May.... my sister and I made the 2 1/2 hour drive to Carborro, so I could see David at the Cat's Cradle concert... AMMMMMMMAAAAAAAZING!!! Wishing I could go back again to make the South Carolina Fair concert (apparently that location is even closer to Charlotte). My point? Well, I know everyone is in a different situation, but there are some states that have had no concerts at all... and none scheduled (*cough* Utah!), and some states have had various concerts throughout.... just a suggestion, maybe take advantage of a concert *near* you if you are able. The 2 1/2 hour drive from Charlotte to Carborro was nothing compared to traveling across the country....LOL I would go NUTS if David would come anywhere CLOSE to where I live!!

I am so sad that you are not coming to Vegas!

Yes you are expanding your tour woohoo>>>, NOOOOOOOOOO, but you not expanding it enough you are not coming to Charlotte N.C. Why david why we love you here too. Please come !

DOES ANYONE KNOW THE PRESALE PASSWORD?

HELP !
THANKS
DORA

Could not figure out where to post this after the show but was just BURSTING With Energy and had to post.

A million times THANK YOU!!! You ended with "Daily Anthem"!!! I was so ecstatic!!! Wasn't it powerful?? Wondering what it felt like to you and to see all the arms waving back and forth from your view & than the fireworks. WOW! WHAT A FINALE!!

You were so in your element last night. I have to admit I missed being up close and personal like at Ameristar but really enjoyed the box seats surrounded by the night sky.

Enjoyed all the other surprises you had for us that night...so enjoyed your well planned set & I didn't feel like you left us wanting more too much although, I could have stayed and listened to you play All Night Long.

PS. Thanks for sharing the news with us that you've decided to keep this your home. We would love to see the picture you took of us to hang in your new home.
We are thrilled eventhough with your schedule I don't see you being home much!

Comfortability,
Kim

Cant wait till August 1st... You are going to make my trip- to Foxwoods the best its ever been. You are worth much more then the money I have won...

I am so thrilled about the new dates in the NY area and I've already secured tix!!! DC is way too good to us, because the schedule for the rest of the year looks GRUELING. Hope someone is scheduling nap time for DC and the boys! Take care of you, and you'll take care of us!

AHHHH!!!!!! david THANKYOU THANKYOU THANKYOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh my god i FREAKED OUT earlier this year when i found out your closest show 2 me (in CA) was in friggin TULSA!!! (i have nothing against tulsa, its just very far away.) i was soooo depressed for like, MONTHS, until i saw these new dates. i, as well as many others here on dco, begged you to come closer to where i am, and now YOU WILL!!!! hahaha u have no IDEA how much this means to me and my friends. (they no longer have to put up with me complaining every 5 seconds). so ill c ya august 21st, baby! whoooooo!!!

~L

i was really excited when i logged on and saw that you were adding dates to your already jam packed list of places... however i was let down a couple minutes later when i discovered that you weren't coming to Utah... oh well..... hopefully you will think about adding even more dates further down the line and will decide to include Utah if you could that would be AWESOME!

Hiya!

Any plans to tour 'the rest of the World'? You are bound to have a great fan base outside the US. Would love to see you in London !

Never tire of listening to your wonderful album.

All the bestest,
Cherrie. x

..Nice.. Smiling okay well, I hope November and December, while you are working on your next cd enjoy the holidays with your family, if that is, time is generous to you. If not, make it so, because family is important.

Hey David, I don't know how to write this so you'll read it so sorry if you see it on the site a lot. Anyhow, if you would be able to make a Canadian tour sometime it would be greatly appreciated. Smiling Thanks!

Anybody know now I get a presale code? I thought I would get one as a registered member of ticketmaster. No such luck.

does that mean that hong kong has to wait a year before david cook considers hong kong for touring? Sad

Cant wait to see David on the Showboat in Cheasening, MI. July 11th. Very excited

I was getting worried that we were being penalized for not living in the midwest! Smiling

Fortunately your mgmt remembered us urban dwellers. In exchange for the nod, we promise to rock on and rock hard with Dave and his sexy band. No sitting, no sleeping, no yacking during songs. No, only energized fans, with bobbed heads, raised arms and songs sung at the top of our lungs!

Be sure to get some rest in between dates. Your schedule is MAD PACKED! Bring it Boys! Can't wait.
