David Cook Joins Our Lady Peace On Stage In Kansas City
It was a special Halloween treat for the concert goers at the Our Lady Peace concert in Kansas City as American Idol, David Cook joined the Canadian rockers’ on stage for their last song, “Starseed”.
David, and OLP lead singer, Raine Maida harmonized and traded off lines. But then, all hell sorta broke loose when the opening band, Company of Thieves, rushed the stage dressed in Wizard of Oz costumes.
Much hilarity ensued!
Raine Maida, and his wife Chantal co-wrote songs with David for his post-Idol album, David Cook, released in 2008.
There were several videos floating around You Tube. I’ve chosen two–one has better video and the other audio. Check them both out after the jump…
Video after the JUMP…
Excellent video, good perspective of the dancing Oz peeps and some shots of Raine Maida.
Better audio, more concentration on David

Aww! I’m late to this party. I love that he gets to on occasion hang out with and perform with the OLP dudes. In KC no less.
I’m one of the odd folks he got with Innocent. The song choice was so WTF, it started off so trainwreckish and he wanted so badly to do it justice, you could feel it through the TV. There was something so totally un-artificial about the whole performance that he just got me. And I used to mock the hell out of AI and all those associated with it. Karma’s a bitch.
Loving the memories, y’all, and thanks for more presents.
Anyone else having trouble getting into any threads? I can’t get into the headlines or mediabase threads. Sigh.
I’ve skimmed this thread and don’t see this video of Starseed posted. It’s pretty good video (includes the wizard of oz group) and the audio is better than most that I’ve heard.

^^^ That is a good vid. Thanx dude. Raine and David were in the same frame for most of it, which I enjoyed. Ahem.
Hee, me too! So many handsome men, so many handsome men. *Sigh*
I am late returning to the party and I babbled a big “How I Got Hooked on Cookie” posting on DCO the other day but… I liked his voice at first but thought he (hangs head in shame) looked like the Joker. I don’t know why, looking back now… well, I sure don’t see him in the same way. Noticed him a bit on All Right Now, still liked Michael Johns best I think? Hello really did make me say HELLO?! My mom and I talk on the phone after Idol since nobody watches it with us at our houses (well, until my husband became an Allison fan this year) and I remember talking about that. Billie Jean was a WTF?! moment and I was blown away by the voice… Little Sparrow, however, I was completely in love with the guy AND the voice. And then it just got worse from there, heart-on-his-sleeve tearful Always Be My Baby Cookie, sad face earnest Innocent Cookie, I still am madly in love with All I Really Need Is You and TWIK which was the most gorgeous performance, then tears, then that *#(@*#(#(* Simon punched my Cookie in the gut and I voted my fingers off. And of course the couldn’t-be-better finale with the win, the tears, the Andrew “that’s my brother.” Five live shows each progressively more awesome, Race for Hope (I was there) which broke my heart and made me respect him more than ever all at the same time… well, here I am, still, looking for Cookie crumbs and watching every video that is fed to me. No wonder I had no energy to get invested in anyone this past season.
Also late to the party (tm wheezie_v), but how awsome for Dave to be singing with OLP on the KC Live stage. Love the “yeah, yeah, yeahs”, but funny to watch him try to reign himself in to sing back up and not steal the whole smokin show. As good as he is at harmonizing, the performer in him *needs* to sing lead, IMO.
Still can’t really get over Simon comparing that video unfavorably to, ummm, race car driving. Simon doesn’t know much about women apparently. ARN was the performance that made me notice Dave, and I probably would have said he was my favorite guy at that point, but ER was when he made me care. Has anybody ever shown that much joy on the stage after a performance, while at the same time making you so aware of how long and hard the journey had been to get there?
I came back to post the link to the nexhexster video but wordnerdarchie beat me to it. : ) It’s definitely the best yet though — you can see and hear Raine much better than on the others.
I also came back to finish reading the thread and just wanted to say *thank you* to those of you who got ON TASK and voted your fingers off for DC after “Innocent” and the finale. Without you guys I wouldn’t have seen that amazing AI commercial last year and felt compelled to check out the new record by this
smoking hotintriguing guy David Cook, whom I’d never heard of before. And it’s totally your fault that I fell down the AI rabbit hole and never looked back. Well, and DC’s fault too. He had a little something to do with it.Attn twitter stalkers (you know who you are)…Steve Queek. That’s all, just Steve. Queek. Heeee…..

@thedavidcook what is it again? Kyle…Teek?

@andyskib Teek? Meek? Neek? Queek?

@andyskib Steve Queek feels right. You know, our drummer, @stevequeek….
And then Steve Queek says…
stevequeek
@thedavidcook totally made me do this…
Steve Queek! Too funny. I just love that whole band.
Ahahahahaha! I was following that conversation (er, not in a stalkery way… really) and thought it was a joke. The sheepish tweet you get at the end as you follow the cookie crumbs is the best payoff ever.
Heh DC just twittered Steve is not Kyle. Lol
Oh no! Not the best payoff but a great big burn. Very funny Steve, whoever you are. *g*
Kyle totally needs to join twitter as “thestevequeek” now…
I really don’t like the baseball hats, sorry. It really does NOT take that much to keep your hair good-looking, David… can’t you spare 15 minutes every couple of weeks or so?
PS: sorry but I realized there was too little hair discussion in this DC thread!
