and it's something I will never forget. It was an incredible experience all around, starting with the soundcheck. This is as close to the stage as some of us got all night, and it was so nice that we were allowed to take pics !! That meant so much to us!

The meet & greet was such fun, and I would love to do it again.
It was so exciting and the whole night was that much more incredible !!
The way you guys care about your fans is special, and so evident.
Thank -you from the bottom of my heart, please continue to do this for the next tour, and please come back to Allegan !!

Best wishes always ~ XOXOX

PLEASE DO IT AGAIN. ALL OF YOUR DO FANS LOVED IT. THANKS.

MEMBER OF THE D.O.G.G. POUND

Thanks to everyone who made this possible!! It has almost been a month and I'm still on cloud 9 from this concert and the VIP experience. This show was simply amazing!!!!! Soundcheck, VIP meet n greet, and the concert were priceless. I am so happy to have been a part of that day at York. I will remember it forever. This band is so special. Their chemistry and love for their fans shows. Thanks DAUGHTRY for an awesome experience!!! The world is a better place with DAUGHTRY in it

I agree, it was definitely priceless and I absolutely loved it too. Both times I went, everyone was well behaved and respectful. What I meant by intrusive and perhaps that's not the correct word, is that it seems to me that having a large group of fans watching while you're working out the kinks and making sure everything is working properly must be tough on the guys. It's very generous on their part.

For me, even though I LOVED IT (can't stress that enough), knowing that very shortly after the soundcheck they would be on stage performing for us with everything they've got as they always do, I just couldn't help feeling that they deserved or might need their privacy during that time. But, being the ever so generous guys that they are, I'm sure they will continue it. ....And hey, I could be totally wrong, they may love having the fans there for the soundcheck. It would be totally cool to know how they felt about it.

Being able to watch soundcheck was priceless and I hope we get that chance again on the next tour. And I agree that there should be some rules implemented about people being rude, and making inappropriate comments. That kind of behavior is wrong and anyone who acts like that should be kicked out immediately! I'm so glad that everyone at our soundcheck was completely respectful and just let the guys do their normal routine without any interruptions! I'm sure they really appreciated that- especially considering that was the first one of the tour with an "audience" and it had to be a little strange.

doesn't have to be intrusive. All that is needed is well behaved fans. It should be made clear that any fans being rude, loud or otherwise disruptive will be escorted out.

Adding my thanks for the VIP experience. It was a tremendous effort on the part of Daughtry and everyone involved. We are all super appreciative. Definetely, bring it back next tour. Won't be the same without it. One suggestion though and others may not agree, but for the guy's sake I think you should drop the sound check and just have the meet & greet. Not that I didn't absolutely love the sound check. However, I felt it was too intrusive for the band. They need that time to themselves. Just my food for thought. If I'm wrong then sound checks it is, but if it's better for the guys I'd say the Daughtry fans being the great fans they are would be on board.

I hope VIP is offered on the next tour...I would love to do it again! Even though it was so short it was still the most amazing experience....Only Daughtry can make me feel this way! Hope to see you soon boys! BTW Hope you come to Rhode Island on the next tour...we have a lot of love to share

I also wanted to say a HUGE thank you to everyone involved in putting together the VIP packages. With the exception of FINALLY seeing all of the guys come out from the buses in Syracuse, I purchased two VIP packages for Indy and York and it's something I'll never forget. Although I still wish I had more time at some point to actually talk to the guys more than 60 seconds (LOL) those were two of the most special memories of my life! I admire our men of Daughtry so much and to be able to get hugs and pics with them is something that's just indescribable!!

And I want to give a very special shout out and thank you to Scott from Ground Control!!!!! Scott you are awesome and for handling this by yourself out there on the road...wow I was impressed! Everything was so organized and you always had a smile on your face! We love you too Scott!!

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!

I am still waiting and the show is in 3 days and it is the weekend and a holiday on Monday Just want to make sure I am there on time and at the right place Thanks so much!!! I am SOOOO excited to meet you guys

What a great time! Worth every penny.
Thanks for making this available to die hard fans like me.
It was hot but Daughtry made it hotter!!!!

any suggestions?? I have tried ground control link and it doesn't work
anybody else have problem printing??

The Meadville VIP experience was awesome...anyone else VIP for this show...send me a message?? I am still waiting on my picture to be uploaded..seems like it is taking quite sometime..It will be a week tomorrow.

is this where you will post all the VIP experience instructions?? ................ ie Essex?

I'm still waiting on my daughter's picture. I have received mine but hers is not on there. Now you think that it would because she even had her picture taken before me! Also noticed that the girls that were standing in line behind us that their pictures aren't on there either. I do not know what is going on! I have emailed Ground Control and RCA Josh but have heard nothing back. This picture means the world to a little 11 year old girl!

I am like freaking out now that others have gotten their pictures from the Greet and Meet and I have not gotten anything and that really sux and I am going to scream!!! OMG

Anybody else who attended the Indianapolis meet & greet not get their pic with Daughtry downloaded?

Thanks for the update Josh! You rock!

Mary (4 shows and counting!)

You rock but I finally did get the email though I think there are still others out there who have not. I am sooo excited but disappointed at the same time b/c there will be no soundcheck and I feel like it's going to be rushed. But hey at least I get to say hi to the guys, get a picture and all that and see them so close since I am unfortuantely not on the track. I can't believe the big day is tomorrow. Woo-hoo. I am flying through the air and feel so happy and giddy and ready to have some fun and meet online friends. Know it's going to be a great opportunity and Daughtry will not let me down in any respects. I don't know how I am going to contain myself or get through this day and it sux I have to work late tonight when I want to be doing other things to prepare myself for this.
