David Cook Vlogs: Set to Begin a College Tour in Mid-February
Update: Thanks to Karen for sending me this tidbit. David is looking to book venues that seat less than 1000, and his asking price is 5000-7550.
Say Hi! to David Cook’s new puppy, Dublin the Scottish Terrier. Aw. Plus, David reveals plans to begin a college tour in mid-February. And if you’re into merch, he’ll be selling it.
What’s that behind him? Oh, it’s his platinum record for the Magic Rainbow. Nice.
And by the way, Happy New Year.



What a cute puppy (with a rockstar collar). Adorable….
Hah! Me too. I love terriers. But, that they can be terrors is so true. I can just hear him barking backstage during “Permanent” or something….
Methinks Dublin needs a graphic tee….
Ah, what a cutie. We used to have a westie, and they are awesome dogs—completely secure in the concept that they are big dogs, except to the extent that they believe that they are people. And we all saw how Dublin refused to pander to the camera. Heh.
My guess is that Dublin will hang out on the bus or in the dressing room securely away from where barking can cause problems during shows, unless there is a time that he is specifically brought out to come on stage. I do appreciate that he got some bling, although really, given his current size, the decision not to start layering the bling was probably a very good one.
Interesting that Heroes was the background music. Also interesting, as someone elsewhere pointed out: the tags for the video don’t mention Magic Rainbow (which is kind of a star of the vlog, with the platinum plaque behind him) and only obliquely mention Heroes through a quote of the lyrics. But they do mention LO and Declaration, so the videos that come up as related to the vlog on youtube are LO and Declaration.
Awww Dublin Cook’s debut into the world. Glad that David talked about the college tour and merchandise before he brought Dublin on screen. Because that was the first time I focused on someone else other than DC in a DC featured video. David Cook & Dublin Cook – adorkable. I would so buy Dublin featured merchandise, too.
I think that Dublin will probably gain about 5-8 lbs of muscle, because Scotties are very muscular, sturdy and stocky dogs. Dublin will need to be house trained and camera trained in the coming weeks. Love the rockstar dog collar. And Folk Fan, I pray that Dublin will not be layering the bling like his daddy. 3 bedazzled dog collars would be too much for the puppy.
Love that color he painted the room or wall. DC’s a home owner. What a difference a year makes.
The two most important words in that whole vlog?
“NEW MERCH”
Holy crap, my credit cards hearts’ skipped a beat at those words. New David Cook things to buy! Yay! And Dublin is precious. Something tells me that all the fan mail is now going to be addressed to “Dublin Cook” and will be in the form of dog treats and dog clothing
*twiddles thumbs….looks around innocently…. rushes to nearest PetsMart to buy Dublin something*
Just kidding.
Awwww! “Dublin Cook” fan-mail! Could this thread get any cuter!
Dublin was the name of my elementary school. So David and I have something in common. Bwah!
Seriously, is he left-handed? You know, a high percentage of artists in halls of fame are left handed. I remember hearing that and it stuck in my mind. Yes I’m left handed so I tend to believe nutty things like that.
My college has a fair-sized concert hall and gets a lot of well-known bands. I guess it depends on the college.
Hmm, interesting new details on the venue size and asking price…looks like they are really trying to make him accessible.
Can’t wait till I get a chance to pay for the privilege of watching him live…
UMD please~
Darling! The pup & his Dad of course. I saw that vid of the making of that guitar awhile ago & I always wondered what happened to it. It looks great next to the platinum album…the wall of fame…love it! I know Dave will be coming to Oklahoma I just hope he will do both OKC & Tulsa again. Less than 1000 people??? Those will be very small venues for sure and they won’t turn cameras away either! Release those dates already will ya!

So nice to have an update and to see David. I can’t wait for the tour. Dublin is adorable, but you know what, no one or nothing is as adorable as David himself. Thanks for sharing the video blog. So happy about the platinum album and hopefully there will be many more to come.
$5,000 and a college venue, huh? *breaks out credit card and a phone book*
I can’t wait for DC on Kimmel on the 13th. Two days from now (or one).
