One of those posters that switches seats w/ her "Bon Jovi" buddies, almost knocked my kids eye out for a Daughtry drumstick @ this show. She's a mean one Mr. Grinch. Glad you got those great pictures.

wow. wow. wow. just wow.... those pictures were amazing!
I don't know HOW I missed them the first time 'round. Wow.

Tracymc and jbjdaughtry!! Really appreciate you guys taking the time and effort to record and upload these videos!! Money is so tight this year I doubt I'll be able to get to ANY shows. So these videos are the only thing I have to keep me from going insane from Daughtry withdrawals!! (well, that and Soundscan, and youtube, and all my other DVR'd shows... Smiling )

~Lifer~

I haven't given up completely but I just can't find a way to upload the entire video from March 2nd.
Glad you enjoyed the snippets from March 3rd.

I will be at the Greensboro show next week and will have alot of the Daughtry performance for everyone. I didn't take any in Philly because The first night I knew it was Jon's b-day and I wanted to save room on my memory card for any surprises. The second night, my flipping main memory card broke before the show so I didn't have much memory...which is why I only took a few snippets.

And thankyou to everyone for all of the nice pm's. Glad you enjoyed it.

OMG, that video is absolutely incredible!!!! If only there was a way to upload the whole thing. That is one very impressive video. Thank you so much for sharing it with us!!!!!!!!

What more can I say? The show was like a dream come true, my favorite all time band, Bon Jovi and my new favorite band, Daughtry together on the same stage on Jon's birthday. It was amazing. Daughtry was great of course! Bon Jovi was spectacular. Like many others have said the highlight was Chris singing Blaze of Glory with Bon Jovi. OMG It sounded perfect. I will never, ever forget that night.
PS Lisa G. Thanks for the awesome pictures. I didn't have a camera to capture the memories so I really appreciate it.

Daughtry Rules!!!
Bon Jovi Rocks!!

Whoa!!

Well it took forever, but youtube finally accepted my vid of Blaze of Glory (stupid site kept timing out - ugh!)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epQ3JCignQo

I had to hold up the camera over a sign, so the vid is sometimes shaky, but IMO the audio is good.

I still haven't gotten any pics up. Lisa G...I was looking for you at the show on Sunday. We were able to move up to the 4th row for the beginning of Daughtry's set...then gradually got relocated back to our still not bad 17th row seats Smiling

These guys are amazing. I don't think you could find another band as awesome as them. They love their fans, and each other and it is all just amazing! They deserve everything good that is coming their way.

Thank you for sharing

Ok...I am sorry but I have tried for 2 flippin days to upload the 800 MB file that has the entire video of Blaze but nothing will work. I do however have snippets from the 2nd night that I have added. Thanks to everyone for the help and the pm's.
Enjoy! I have always loved my Jonny but the 2 of them together make me think ugly things LOL!!

Chris and the band ROCKED Philly PA!! Loved the show 100% and then some! Great energy and sound. Even from the back of the stage it still sounded AMAZING!! The cover songs were awesome...esp the appearance and sing along with Bon Jovi "Blaze of Glory" Keep rocked and definitely come back soon!!

I had heard of Daughtry but never really knew their music, that was until I went to Sunday night's concert!! I was blown away!! (That may actually be an understatement!) Even my kids (5 and 3) enjoyed it!! And when Chris came out to sing with Jon on Blaze of Glory, again, I was truly amazed!! Thanks guys for an awesome show! You have at least 4 new fans in my family! Hopefully we will get to see you again, maybe as a headliner!!

Keep up the great work and thanks again for a great show!!

Christy

Everybody is absolutely right! The show was amazing, and the VIP experience was even more amazing! I promise to get my review up soon...I work full-time and have a 4 year old (and a husband...lol), so please bear with me. As for pics - MY CAMERA WASN'T WORKING RIGHT!!!! Can you believe it?!? The only decent pic I got was the one with the guys -- of course that is the most important one! I obviously need to get a camera like Lisa G.'s before my next show...your pics are fantastic!

you guys rocked the house .. not since I have seen guns and roses open up for aerosmith back in the day, have an opening band come close to being as cool as you guys were. I loved your entire opening set, but you absolutely blew me away with your duet with jon bon jovi on blaze of glory .. jon always does something different when he performs that song with the band and this time ... wowowow .... i have been a bon jovi fan since runaway and now .. a daughtry fan too!

....................
what kind of camera do you have ,what awesome pictures..I am so happy you got your wish,lucky lucky you...Gosh they should use you for publicity pics..great job....

LOVE your pics!!!! Thanks so much for posting them! I NEED to get that camera! I have to look into this!! Enjoy all your shows and looks like you got a BLAZING one as well! Very happy for you!Smiling

I can't believe how amazing this show was!!!!! The guys did so great! I've seen them so many times before, and they just get better and better each time!! The only thing that could have made it better was Daughtry on for a longer set!! But when Chris came back out to sing with Bon Jovi, it was unbelievable!!! I loved it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait for the next show tonight!!! The trip from Myrtle Beach sooooooo worth it!!!! Can't wait for the next solo tour!!! I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!

HOPE

HOPE

The only thing that would have made my night better would have been better seats. I've been a huge BonJovi fan since '84 & have fallen in love with Daughtry! That concert rocked! Daughtry was a great opening act (the sound was a little distorted in the back), and will soon be the headliner for concerts of this venue! BonJovi was awesome for having Chris out to sing on Blaze of Glory!! Richie sang solo! Had a great time! THANKS DAUGHTRY - we were proud of you hangin' with the big boys! You definitely showed your talent!
- Thanks for the great pictures Lisa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
** PLEASE -- someone tell me how to get decent seats at a concert anymore without paying TONS of money! I'm serious - I don't understand & it is frustrating. Any help is appreciated! ***

...I also have a TZ3 and I love it!

The TZ4 & TZ5 will be out soon...I think the end of the month?

Great pics...thanks for sharing!

Lisa- thanks for sharing your AWESOME pictures! The crowd goes wild- Chris and Bon Jovi once again! Unbelievalbe! To those of you who happened to be attending the concert! I am sooooo jealous! Please let us know how unbelievalbe the night was!!!! I have my fingers crossed that Chris and Bon Jovi will let the St. Paul concert goers have a little taste of Blaze of Glory!

Again AWESOME photos! looks like you had a blast- who wouldn't Daughtry and Bon Jovi makes for a great night!

I was in the first row of section 208 which wasn't bad, but not as good as your seats. I had to leave a few minutes early since my 13 year old daughter had a killer headache (not used to the loud music of a concert). Thanks for posting the pics. I really want to go tonight and there are still tickets available so I may try to swing it.

Chris was amazing with Bon Jovi when they say Blaze of Glory! That was the highlight of my night!

I'm certainly glad that you are on "our" side and are such a great DAUGHTRY fan to post your photos to this website.
No 2 DAUGHTRY pics could look the same, so keep up the GREAT "shooting"!!!
God bless ya, girl friend!!!!

Thank you so much for responding. I am laughing right now, because I had gone out to bestbuy.com to review camera options, after I posted my question. I was reading reviews of newer cameras & found one that said it took awesome concert photos(the person had seen the person in front of them taking great photos while their camera sucked) and was just thinking of going to the store to buy it. I decided to check if you responded....and it turns out the camera I was thinking of buying is the same, TZ3!!! How weird!!

That's great that you have friends who let you sit up front for Daughtry. I am a huge Bon Jovi fan too and have been going to their shows since 1987. However, my number is not as impressive as yours at 65!

Enjoy the show tonight (I know I will! It doesn't get much better than Daughtry & Bon Jovi playing the same show!!)...and take some more great photos!

Thanks Smiling

Its a panasonic Tz1 I got it a few years ago and just learned how to really use it. LOL
Now they have the TZ3 which is the update and I do recommend it, its a 10x zoom. I like this camera because its small and compact. There are better cameras with better zooms but they are too bulky for me.
I have been very fortunate my Bon Jovi friends have let me trade seats with them for Daughtry!!
Which has been right in front of Josh for all 4 shows so far!!
My bon jovi tour planning started a year ago, which is why I am able to get to soo many shows!!SO its a bonus for me having Daughtry there!!
I am up to my 65th Bon Jovi show!
I cant wait to say that 20 years from now about Daughtry!!!

Lisa-
First off, let me thank you for posting those amazing photos. I am like you and always find myself snapping photos the entire time, however my pictures never look that good!!

What kind of camera do you own and where was your seat? It looks like you are on stage with them!

I am going to tonights show, 3/3...and would be willing to go out to buy a new camera if I could get pics like yours. Both of the cameras I own, take crappy pics at concerts.

If you don't mind letting me know about the camera, I'd appreciate it.

VERY NICE PICTURES!!!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU. MAKES ME SO NOT ABLE TO WAIT TILL PITTSBURGH. HEY, KEEP VOTING VH-1. DAUGHTRY'S BEEN NO. 1, FIVE WEEKS IN A ROW!!!!! JUDY.

There is a section on Youtube for files ip to 1Gg so I am uploading now but it looks like it will take a couple of hours!! Crazy...I will post when it's ready.

I'm awake now and I'll keep trying to figure out what to do. I took the video with high resolution so it is jsut a ridiculous size file that seems no one will allow but I hate to reduce because it reduces the quality...anywhoo I up now and will post asap.
Thanks for the help everyone, I'll check out the suggestions.

I thought the show as amazing! This was a much better venue than the Hershey fiasco. I didn't end up seeing Daughtry that night last summer, but he was well worth the wait. Awesome show, the vocals were great and what an intro for Bon Jovi! They were great too; what an awesome team!

Thanks for the pictures!!! You're my new hero! LOL!

Last nights show was amazing!! My husband and I only got tickets Sunday morning and I am soooo glad we did. Daughtry never disappoints and Bon Jovi was great. I love Daughtry's new song and BOG blew me away. Unfortunately, we left before Bon Jovi was done with his set and we missed the birthday celebration. If anyone has video of it , please post it. I would love to see it!! I can't wait for the next tour!!

Pics Lisa! Thank you so much for letting us unfortunate fans (who couldn't go) experience these awesome moments through your "eyes" (camera Smiling). I'm dying for a YouTube vid of the performance of Chris with BJ. I hope someone figures out how to post one soon!

~Lifer~

I just upload to youtube. I didnt take video last night because I was taking pics and I was nervous with security!!
I also use this program
http://www.dvdvideosoft.com/free-dvd-video-software.htm
There is one that automatically uploads it to youtube, you can also load it to yousendit.com.

I cant wait for tonight I have a great seat.
I am trying to keep the events tab going Smiling

Yesterday we were at this random restaurant for lunch that we always come to in Philly, and JP walked in, I didnt bother him at all, as he was with his wife and they need all the alone time they can get. It was just cool to see him in this restaurant, that really isnt near anything Smiling

Thanks for all the nice comments on the pics, I do have a picture obession, I wish I could just watch an entire show without feeling the need to capture EVERYTHING, although many of my pics from all the nights are starting to look the same!

Im really sorry you had a bad experience with your ticket giveaway. You had the best of intentions at heart and thats what you should hold on to. I know its easy for me to say, I would be Pi$$ed too....Pretty much chalk this one up to lesson learned....You did it for the love of Daughtry Smiling !

I sometimes use mediafire, but it is also limited to 100 mb per file. I've been looking around to find somewhere you could upload the video, but all the others that I did find come with a registration/user fee.
If you have a file convertor, you would be able to change it to a different file that would reduce the size of the video. Or if you have Windows Movie Maker, you could split the video into sections.
Converting the video to a different format should reduce the size of the file.
I'll still look around and see what I can find out. I know we would all love to see this video!!!

Just found a site called www.BitTorrent.com that is free and allows that size of a file. I've not used that site before, so I don't know much about it. But might be worth checking out.

Here is another site where you can find a variety of video convertors, and they are all free.

FOR LAST NIGHTS SHOW I GAVE MY ORGINAL TICKET TO  ineeddaughtry BECAUSE SHE SERVED OUR COUNTRY AND I WANT TO DO SOMETHING. SO GREAT I GOT A LAST MINTUE TICKET FROM ALICOU22. NO PROBLEM SO I THOUGHT.

IT WAS NOT A GREAT SEAT BUT IT WAS WASTED. I TOTALLY FEEL SCREWED.ALSOMST AS BAD AS THE LADY WHO LIED SO HERE DAUGHTER COULD MEET MILEY CIRUS.WE ALL HAVE SAD STORYS BUT WE GO ON.

....it was another phenomenal show. This morning's news show had a short bit about it. It showed Jon singing the intro to BOG and then the b-day celebration onstage w/ the Soul cheerleaders and a nice minute or so of Chris and JP up there with him. I'm PRAYING that they do BOG again tonight when I'll be there!

Tracey....see ya soon!!

First awesome picetures lisa.

I was in the nose bleeds because that is all i could afford. but worth it. this is the first time i was so far from chris but I was there. awesome. even better than NEWARK but in NEWARK the screens work for the people up high when DAUGHTRY was on. but did not work last night for Chris. (did not matter in NEWARK I was 3rd row) But when BON JOVI came out the screens really where awesome for the nose bleeders.

and I got what i was waitng for to see JON and CHRIS to sing together . FRIGGIN AWESOME.

Jodi

PS I love the new song
