on David Cook and The Anthemic in Phoenix 11/3/09

Well Coolie, at least you got to see the entire show! My drive to Phoenix from L.A. turned out to be one big nightmare... traffic, unexpected construction slowdowns, getting lost, forgetting about the one hour time difference, etc.

Another Pinch-me Moment!

on VIDEO: David Performing With Our Lady Peace

This must seem surreal to you, David -- to be on stage playing with a band you used to idolize from afar as just another fan in the crowd. Keep livin' the dream --- couldn't happen to a better guy!

Great Recap!

on Alas, a decision made for happy feet produces crappy seat...

Thanks for that Gueseppe.... Loved all the detail. Very funny as well as informative. Yep, GA is the only way to go if you want to really be part of the show! I thoroughly loved every one I've done, including the line-waiting and meeting/talking with fellow DC fans. As coolshades says, it's totally worth the pain LOL!

Best Laugh of the Week

on It isn’t a house and there ain’t no blues and I’m okay with that.

....or maybe of the month! Your recap had me cracking up here all by myself. I read it to my sis and she laughed, but I think it lost something in the translation when I had to keep explaining references to basements, slaughtered eagles, etc. We need to find a way to make sure you get to more concerts. Maybe we can start a 'Gueseppe Review Fund'. We could write off donations at tax time --- after all, it'd be for a good cause.

So Entertaining!

on Spreckels - WTF does that mean anyway?

I am such a fan of your posts, Gueseppe, and this one is no exception! I'm just sad that I didn't get a chance to meet you at the Spreckles (yeah it does sound like colored sugar crystals, huh?).

I'd like to comment on this, from your recap:

Even better, who woulda thunk that the under-rated, overlooked simple, little tune would earn its place as an epically spectacular final encore? It’s crazy what’s happened to that song. From a lonely place in a forgotten tier to a show stopping, concert ending blowout.

I hope this isn't the end

on FANPOCALYPSE NOW (ISH): A Belated FINAL Fan Report from March 2009

Your last Fan Report has a bit of a "final" vibe. Say it ain't so, kdc. Whenever the spirit moves you, and you have the time, please feel free to gift us again. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading everything you've written and don't want to stop now.

Why I'm a Fan

I became a DC fan in much the same way a person typically falls in love.

1st Stage: Physical attraction. David's appearance has a very personal meaning to me --- not only his facial features and body type --- but also his mannerisms and expressions. Except for the hair and eye color, David could be the reincarnation of my first real love.

2nd Stage: Excitement. As David's incredible talent became apparent to me, the anticipation of seeing him again was overwhelming to the point of exclusion of the other contestants (and also a good part of my Real Life).

3rd Stage: Discovery. Learning what a compassionate, caring, humble, and "real" human being he is has only strengthened my attraction to David and cemented our "bond".

4th Stage: Sharing & Compromise. In exchange for him pouring out his heart and soul to me through his music, I will offer my undying appreciation, support and adoration.

5th Stage: Devotion. I know his fans are extremely important to David as evidenced by showing his sincere gratitude for our interest in his music and career. He will no doubt spend the rest of his incredible journey pleasing his fanbase by exceeding their expectations at every turn. As a rabid (yet fairly civilized) hardcore till-death-do-us-part David Cook fanatic, for my part, I vow to love, cherish, respect, and honor our relationship 'til the end of time. Amen.
