hey

Hey Daughtry, just wondering if you guys license your music...if so, we are interested in the song 'home' to license for a commercial...if this is something you can do please contact me! mina@fingermusic.tv

Thanks,

Mina.

Just want to wish you a happy and healthy new years.
I really enjoy the messages in your music.
All the best.........Lisa

I was looking all over the web site because a friend told me Chris is going to be in CSI NY tomorrow night, but can't believe there is nothing about it on here!
I was so excited to learn he is going to be on the show tomorrow 11/19/08 at 10pm!!!!!!
I sure will be watching! Can't wait to see you Chris! Smiling

Chris,

You and the band were great!!! Let's face it though, Oprah makes any and everyone look great!!! Now it is time for a challenge .. appear on the Bonnie Hunt Show. I have a certain song in mind that would be a great remake for you this year. Hey, if you try to book with my cousin's show, I'll inform you of the song that would be a great remake hit for you.
.... furthermore this challenge/dare isn't "cheesy"!!!!!

You guys sounded fantastic and loved your interview!! It was so great to hear you out there encouraging first time voters. It's only been 2 months since my last concert but it feels like forever. I needed a Daughtry fix...too bad it wasn't just alittle longer!! Can't wait for CSI:NY!!

watched the interview and performances on You Tube, just as everyone outside the US.
It is awesome that Daughtry didn't go into a particular direction in this election and called on everybody to think and make a decision themselves. This is what is needed, thinking peeps who get up and know that they can make a difference.

Loved your performance of "It Feels Like The First Time" on “The Oprah Winfrey Show”, it was amazing. Again, congrats on your band selling 4 million copies of your debut CD (WOW!). If anyone missed it you can see their performance on Oprah.com

Peace

The performances were great & the interview bit was the best coz Chris & the guys share their beautiful hearts & lives with us directly and it was so beautiful. All the fun, the laughs...every little thing about Daughtry ROCKS!!
So here's to many more opportunities and bigger platforms for Daughtry.

I thought you did an amazing job and it made me smile!! I am so proud of you and it's nice to see you trying to get others to take a stand and help make a difference!! I thought WAN was so beautiful and heartfelt and just loved what you did with it. And of course FLTFT was rockin and catchy and great. I am glad there was a little interview there b/c that's always something special and it was interesting to hear what the guys had to say.
I love Joey's new do and think he looks absolutely gorgoues and hot!! That man always looks so good and he did awesome on the drums. All the guys looked good though and it was the perfect way to end the day!! I needed a Daughtry fix and this helped big time and I know Chris' stint on CSI NY will be just as memorable!!

Good job guys. You never let me down and I am so proud of you and can't wait to see you and hear you rock again!! Never stop living your dreams b/c you truly have something special!!

Smiling I don't think it's a good idea to bombard anyone with emails. It's one thing to show appreciation with a few emails but I think it has the opposite affect when fans go overboard. The last thing we would want is to push someone away. I'm sure Oprah was impressed by Daughtry. How could she not be? Smiling
I am going to re-watch this again today. It was so good!!!

YAY

You guys were amazing, and I'm so proud!!! It was nice to see you guys during the whole show. I also like the fact that you didn't stick with one candidate, you made it about just getting people to vote which is soooooo important!

Some people call me a Daughtry dork, but I'm gosh darn proud to be a Daughtry dork!

let's all email Oprah show and THANK her for the Daughtry fix; bombard her (after she comes back down to earth after the election) and maybe she'll have them again!

Smiling as always. I love how u guys were at both conventions and just tried to get people to get out there and have their voice be heard! You ROCK on and off the stage! Laughing out loud WE LOVE U!

The performance was great as usual but what really impressed me was that they just wanted people to vote. They remained neutral and that is commendable.
In another note, I can't wait to see Chris on CSI. I'm sure his talent goes beyond music Smiling I already watch the show and have it set to record.

I just can't tell you enough how great of a job you guys did on Oprah. Not only did you put on two incredible performances, but I'm glad that you sent a message to people out there to do their own research and follow their beliefs while voting. The fact that you guys decided to stay neutral shows how great role models you are. I'm very proud of you guys! And I'm looking to more future endeavors. Smiling

Hey guys I'm feeling all left out of this event...being stuck in the UK. Does anyone know if the whole programme is available on the net or whether it will be shown later on a Sky channel somewhere???? Congrats to all our US pals that are celebrating the election result right now xxxxxxx

I am so proud to be a Daughtry fan! It is also great to have taken part in making history. It is so important to vote and I love how Daughtry took a neutral role and just wanted to get the message out there to vote and make your own decision. Although if it would have been possible I would have voted for DAUGHTRY!

Janine said it all in her post.... the guys were awesome and very inspiring. I am so glad I did not miss the show. My eyes swelled up with pride just listening to them. Just one more Step of Acomplishment for Daughtry. Next up is for them to win both AMA's we have 2 more days of voting left..... Thank you again Daughtry for being so wonderful in heart and soul.

Thanks Oprah for giving us our Daughtry fix and the important message to VOTE!!! You guys were awesome and sounded amazing. I love you guys!!!

Daughtry Fan 4 Life

CHRIS AND THE DAUGHTRY BAND ROCKED AMERICA ON OPRAH TODAY!!! JUST AS BARACK OBAMA ROCKED AMERICA!! BYE BYE F!@#ING BUSH!!

What an emotional day! Daughtry on Oprah was so fitting on this election day. Getting the word out to first time voters and staying bipartisan is something you guys should be commended on...encouraging everyone to get involved and learn the issues and not to just vote for someone because their favorite band said so, is so admirable!

I have just finished listening to Pres-Elect Obama's acceptance speech and it was the most moving thing I have ever witnessed. I cried like a baby! Just knowing that our country came together and put race, color and creed aside...(the numbers showed that), says mountains! People listened to the issues and FINALLY, I feel like we are moving in the right direction! I hope our country continues to set an example to the rest of the world as we prove that our "melting pot" of religions, races, and all our many differences can work and make us all better and stronger as we learn to live together in unity and make the world a better place for this and the next generation!

Daughtry, I've said it before, and I'll say it again.... you are more than just great music....you are humanitarians
with selfless hearts....please continue to keep us all aware and informed of our fellow man, with your music and your generosity!

To all: If you voted for McCain or Obama....it doesn't matter now...what matters is that we unite as a country and show the rest of the world that we ARE about change and that WE CAN DO IT!

I know I'm gonna have trouble sleeping tonight....too hyped!!!

PEACE EVERYONE!
