I just bought a 4th row non-Mavid side ticket for the 8/30 show. You guys should try calling the KC Ticketmaster number. They are so helpful and you can get awesome seats to both shows for FACE!

Good luck! Here's the number: 816-931-3330

I just got floor 2, row 15...right in front of the center catwalk for the 30th! ~does the happy dance~

I got all excited, cuz I'm row 14...but then i realized those seats are for the night before. LOL...you know you're going to too many concerts when...

i'm in floor 2, row 15, seats 7 & 8 !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll be at the one too...but I think it's floor 5




See you there!

I'm so excited! I can't believe the concert is in a week!

BUTTERFLIES IN STOMACH BEGINNING................NOW!!!
ONE WEEK TO GO!

***************************************************************************
who else thinks ---- KC airport is being bombarded with incoming flights this weekend and the staff will be all WTF? seriously, i bet it is soooo much more activity than normal. would love to know. anyone got connections to find out?

Official countdown mode has definately started

we'll just have to invite them down to the power & light distict on the 30th to see what all the fuss is about

good idea!!! *runs off to start flyers for airport staff (LOL)*

ONLY 6 More days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can hardly concetrate on this little thing called life.....all I can think of being at the concert and seeing DC!!!!!!!

I'll be there in 4 days!

Here are my seats for both shows:
Friday - FLR 2, Row 11
Saturday - FLR 2, Row 14

Can't wait to see you all!

Hey KC concert goers!

We are officially recruiting volunteers for the big Cook Fans Unite 2 Fight Event at The Power & Light District on 8/30. Hop on over to THIS THREAD for all the details and to sign up. Let's see how many David *dash* Cook.org peeps we can get to volunteer!

Oh, I will be at the show on the 30th as well. FLR2, row 22, seat 4!

I am so excited right now. I've already gone to 1 Idol show ( I went to the 1 in Glendale ). I just got tickets for both shows in K.C. talk about excitement. Not only am I seeing David and the rest of the idols again but K.C. is also my hometown. So I am pretty stoked right now. I haven't even mentioned how excited I am about the K.C. event(which I am)!!!!!

Heather

Floor 2 row 15, seat 16 for Sat

i'll be there - mavid side - (section 1?) - row 3 - seats are in the middle of the section...

I love how we have created new terminology for a section of a concert venue. Mavid side! I totally emailed that out this afternoon to describe where some available seats were for the Tulsa show.

^^^^^i think we should submit this into websters for next year!

hey, is kc on central time?

darling, darling thing to tell yall about my hubby...
i was quietly working at the kitchen table, packing up my sign to ship to the hotel (i am nervous about my famous sign being out of my hands!)... and he came over and starting helping me...got the box cutter and the tape, and without a word, just started helping. i thought i would literally cry. to just feel so supported like that. i mean i am flying how many miles and paying how much to go see david cook. and he has not said one negative word about the craziness of it or the financial aspect of it all.

i try unsuccessfully to keep quiet about dc to him -but i do hold back a lot- cuz he is a teaser and i dont want him to tease me. he has yet to tease me about dave - not even once....

i think he knows how much i have been inspired by dave and how much being led back to music has helped my healing process...

i am married to the best sweetest most darling man in the world ------ even if he was irritable all weekend.
*sniff, please pass the costco economy tissue box, please*

Yes, I'm replying to my own post.

I called Ticketmaster again because the woman on the phone gave me seat 16, not seat 1 like she implied. So, they changed my ticket and I now have Floor 3, Row 3, Seat 2. Non-Mavid side on the barricade! SCORE!

Apparenly there are still 3rd row seats available, guys! You can get seats on the phone that don't come up online. The only catch is that you need to speak directly with a customer service rep. Keep pressing ZERO til you get a live person. And again, good luck!

Friday: Floor 1, Row 7, seat 15
Saturday: Floor 3, Row 3, seat 2

Yes! I am so excited to see you all there. I'll be in KC on Thursday night! WOW! I can't believe it's almost here!

stacey that is sooooo awesome!
i have convinced geezlepete from this site to come to! WORD NERDS WILL BE DESCENDING UPON KC!!! KC HAS NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE!!!!

LOL. Woot! Can't wait to see you all there. *crossing fingers the benefit will have so many people they'll need to call in crowd control*

they may have to call in the freakin national guard to control us all!
*having warm and fuzzy thoughts of dave in army fatigues - oh my!*

(kc on central time?)

anybody heard about this?
http://www.david-cook.org/index.php?showto...mp;#entry364355

ok I don't have time right now to read all this so sorry if this has been mentioned already.


HUGE REQUEST !!!!

PLEASE get as many video cameras going as possible during the KC concerts bc the rest of us will be living vicariously through you all.

Especially the banter and the end for PDSTM bc I have a feeling the gang will do something fun with David being home like the Jason Jiggle they did last night.

so PLEASE for all us poor saps sitting home and drinking away our sorrows bc we can't be at what may be the BEST show yet take extra vids for us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

((HUGS))
Sue

We'll be posting a thread in this homecoming forum with media and stories from all the events this weekend

going on record right now to say
YOU ROCK

THANKS

Cookies, no worries, BELIEVE ME!! I dropped a wad of cash the other day on a brand new camera, which will be glued to my arm the whole weekend. I am determined to get some good pics and vids 'cause I have pretty good seats for both shows. And since it's the weekend, it'll be no problem to come home and post the pics, vids and recaps right away!

We'll hook you up, no sweat!!

well int hat case YOU ROCK also

Thanks, I can't wait til this weekend and I don't want to miss a thing LOL, corny pun there


Sue

I'll be texting/calling Jul and possibly Sammi with updates all weekend. Jul promised to keep you all updated on Saturday (she might be working Friday). Hopefully Sammi will do what she can on Friday! I also might have to hit Nicole up too. Sooo be on the look out!

Do you think if I went to the box office at the Sprint Center they could get me in that same row and section or do you think I'd have to call the ticketmaster? Because if I go directly to the box office then I wouldn't have to pay the fees.

Stacey you Rock! I did this today, spoke with customer service rep and I am now in the 6th row non-Mavid side (but seat more towards center stage)on the floor for 8/29. I can't believe it worked! Thank you so much for posting this and then reposting to encourage us to try it. It really works. As David would say Thank you seems trite, but THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!!!

hooray for sesot!!!!

Hey all! Who's excited Just a few days away now!

We're working really hard to make sure that everyone can relive the experience of this weekend in some part. I'm looking for volunteers to record video and post experiences. Since there will be so many of us there, we're hoping to coordinate a sort of tag team effort in order to allow individuals to focus on specific aspects of the show without becoming overwhelmed. For example, one person could video hello, and then have the oppertunity to enjoy the rest of cook's set without having to worry about the camera (other than taking pictures of course )

We need your help! Please PM or shoot me an email @ callmechech@verizon.net if you'd be willing to help out.

Thanks so much and see you there!

Wow.. I'm on the other side of the world but I'm EXCITED for you guys! Sounds like its going to be a BLAST! I'm sure David's going to be blown away by all that you guys are organizing in his honour.

Have fun everyone! Those flying in, have a safe trip and thanks in advance to everyone who promised videos and recaps and live updates. DC fans are the best at hooking up fellow fans! Special thanks to BLake and sesot for spearheading this. We're all going to be glued to David DASH Cook.org enjoying the experience vicariously!

We will be waiting for all your updates, thank you so much to everybody. Its gonna be CRAZY over there, our Cookie will be so happy!!!

IMPORTANT TO ALL THAT ARE THERE RIGHT NOW!

I found a flight that will get me there on Saturday and leave Monday morning. I need a room. Problem: I can't pay a damn cent till Friday, Sept 5th. Would there be ANYONE willing to house me? Crap you don't even have to really house me, just at least let me use the shower on Sunday? I've gone to 23 conventions in the past 8 years all over the country ((soon 2 more in England, !)), and I always keep my word. If I say I'll pay you on the 5th I mean it.

Just a request from a fellow gal that is DESPARATE TO GO! ;3;~~~<3!!

thank you!!

any bus info for kc concert? i figure dave will tied up with prior obligations....

********************************************************************************

i am not working monday due to the trip. and today i told my boss why - that i was flying to kc to see david cook perform in his hometown.

his response was hilarious...................................

after asking me "are you serious?" like three times, he said,
"this is becoming unhealthy!" (LOL - kiss my butt!!!)

The things we do for DC! While I *should* be studying for my Gross Anatomy test this weekend, I'm spending it going to KC for the concert instead.... and of course it's going to be worth it!!



Whoo.. just got my "upgraded" tickets for Saturday. Floor 2 Row 8!

I'll be there on Saturday, with camera in hand...but I'm in the upper level so I'll be happy to give a weather report review from the clouds! LOL I assure you...even in the upper seats I'm on CLOUD-FREAKIN'-NINE!

See (hopefully) a bunch of you there!!!

Hey All! I cannot wait for tomorrow night! I am so excited! AND I just called The Sprint Center and the Guest Services person I spoke with said it was her understanding yes, they will be making appearances both days to meet & greet fans but they have no idea what time or where exactly but when I asked her if it was likely to be on the south side of the building where the buses normally park she said it was a possibility. So there it is. Sorry I couldn't find out anything more.

practicing posting a pic...
