For Chris, Josh, Joey, JP and Brian:
THANK YOU for every autograph you sign, every fan you hug, every wave you give, every smile you
have for us. Thanks for the endless radio, tv and print interviews you do when you are asked the SAME questions over and over again. Thanks for listening to our little stories about how we are your BIGGEST fan. Over and over, city to city.
Chris , God Bless you for understanding that we feel part of your success and going our of your way to include us. Thank you for not being angry every time a pushy fan flashes a camera right in your face. Thank you for making the best of venues that do not give you the freedom to give the performance you want, and thanks for rockin' the house anyway! Thank you for sleeping on a moving bus, sharing a small space with a bunch of guys,when you really just want to be home with your family. Thanks for sacrificing your personal life to share your voice, your heart and soul and your talent with us through your music. Thanks for being true to your values, morals and family by being the man you are and have always been. Thanks for being wonderfully imperfect and allowing us to love you just like you are.
Fans come in all shapes and sizes, and we like to think we are the best. We know you think so too. Please forgive us for also being imperfect ,and know that we love you and support you.
Your wish is our command!
With love and respect,
Gayle

a huge thank you to RCA!!!! i for one was going insane yesterday....we need our Daughtry and our girls!!!
--
for signing with RCA.they are taking such good care of us here!!!

for putting all of our thoughts into beautiful words! I have NEVER felt this way about one band before in my life! Daughtry is helping me in ways I can't describe. Their voices, lyrics, looks, personalities etc are all perfect in my eyes. To see them perform live was unbelievable. My dream would be to meet them (yah, me and everyone else, I know
) But for now, listening to their awesome music is What I Need!

Never in my life have I ever
Ever fell so hard for a band.
Never in my heart would I ever
Forget when you touched my hand.
Your passion, your lyrics,
the soft notes and belts
They always come from the <3.
Your smiles, your humor,
You're modest, yet proud
We've loved you right from the start.
Never in our lives have we ever
Ever fell so hard for a band.
Always in our minds and forever
You'll have fans at your command!
To Chris, Steely, JP, Joey, and B-Crad:
We all have thoroughly enjoyed your passion for the stage! You own it!
We all have thoroughly been excited to see you at #1! You deserve it!
We all want you to get some rest and <3 your families! You need it!
We all want you to put out that new album! We crave it!
We're addicted!

My god just reading the first comment from Gayle23 had me all choked up. This band is just phenomenal and I know that you all feel the same way I do about them. I have so much love and so much pride for them that I want to burst and cry happy proudful tears. I cannot thank American Idol enough for giving Chris his moment which in turn gave us Daughtry. They have been on tour for over a year and I know they have touched the lives of so many fans. I know they touched mine on 3-7-08 when I got to meet them and stand stage side for the show. They treat their fans like friends and they go out of their way to make sure their fans are happy and experience a great show. I don't think you could find a better group of guys that give it their all each and every day. I know they have their days, they feel like crap, they miss their family, they just want to sleep in their own bed, but on they go, city by city touching lives, and making dreams come true. They deserve each and every good thing that comes their way and I know they will continue to be successful. I will always back them 100% and I am grateful for all they do for us fans. I am sure they have had fan horror story or got bad rap for a bad experience someone had, but all in the all they shine above the rest and are incredible guys. And for all of that, I am grateful. I am also grateful for RCA and all of their involvement with this site and dealing with all of us! That is a job in itself.
