And just what appeals to me as a Midwesterner? I love how some “fashionable” West Coasters lump us all in a category.

I love Modest Mouse, Elton John, Bruce Springsteen, Green Day, the Eagles, Sum 41, Violent Femmes, and yes, Danny Gokey.

I challenge Perez to guess just exactly the music this midwesterner enjoys.

Who says you need to win American Idol to get big?! (Really all you need is to appeal to middle America!)
Season 8 American Idol contestant Danny Gokey released his new album last week and already it is soaring up the music charts. He has sold over 65,000 copies of his CD, My Best Days, which has landed him at the #4 spot on the Billboard 200 and #3 country album-sales chart.
Crazy!

Wow, he is breaking several records for his label!

Go Gokey.

I will admit they do play LLWD quite often.

LLWD definitely got into their rotation – it literally is on every time I get in the car. Which is fine, I like it. But then they lose me with their next song in most cases, heh. They still play Archie’s Crush sometimes. No Cookie

This was the first time I heard him. That channel I think spun David Cook’s Come Back to Me really early, they seem to really love the Idols and play them all (unless 99.5 which will completely ignore them sometimes – like David Cook, never did play him at all!).

Crazy about Hot 99.5……
That is Ryan’s station, so one would think they would be Idol friendly. I will admit they do play LLWD quite often. Not so much Adam, though……

Fans waiting in Singapore at the airport.

Adam tweeted that he was sorry that he was half awake and just going where they were told, through the back exit

I LOVE Singapore. You guys rock.

I’m so happy to hear this from you, tierbee. I have never heard Adam on the radio in DC.

Hey, DC Adam fans – 92.5 just played WWFM a few minutes ago. First time I heard it here. That channel loves the Idols.

I’m so happy to hear this from you, tierbee. I have never heard Adam on the radio in DC. After switching from MIX 107.3, I keep listening to 99.5 thinking that is the station that will do it. Okay, now I will need to switch again to 92.5!!

It sounded great… my kids and I all love that song and were singing along (picture 4 yr old blonde haired boy singing at the top of his lungs, heh)

Other than 5 seconds of tfm and wwfm I’ve never heard Adam on the radio

That would be awesome!!!! Do you have the link to this? Thanks for posting!
