Full Version: Meeting Dc At Ford Day Event
David Cook > David Cook > Getting "close" To David
Julie Ann
I was fortunate enough to attend the Ford Day mini concert on 9/19 (A nice DC fan in Ohio had an extra ticket and was kind enough to send it to me). I am a Ford employee so it was really nice to be there. Both David C and David A put on a great performance. I had heard rumors that they might come out after the concert and sign some autographs so I brought my favorite photo of DC from Rolling Stone Magazine (the one with him and the martial arts student doing a punch). I love this photo because I taught martial arts for 12 years.

I was standing a few people back when my photo was finally passed into his hands. He looked at it, looked up and found me and said "I love this photo, this little girl had no idea what was going on, they just grabbed her off the street as she was walking by." I laughed and told him I was a martial arts instructor and I thought it was a great photo. He smiled and handed it back to me (he signed it perfectly) I resisted the urge to critique his martial arts technique since I figured he’d probably just learned the punch a few minutes before the photo was taken (LOL). Smiling

My favorite moment was a few minutes later when I was able to get close enough to him to get a photo. He was signing something and he turned around and I caught his attention and asked if I could get a photo with him. He smiled and said "absolutely” came over to where I was standing and leaned over (he was standing on a stage )and gave this great smile so we could get the photo.

I want everyone to know how patient, gracious and kind he was to everyone there. He hung around for over an hour signing, taking photos and just chatting with everyone. He was a true gentleman and it is apparent that he really does appreciate his fans!
