Wow, the prices of David’s concert in Vietnam is expensive

$10, $20, $55, $75
$100 for VIP
$250 for Super VIP (w/ ticket after party)
Was posting this in the previous thread when my laptop froze, LOL
We should probably prepare one for Malaysia, Indonesia & Manila, now that you’ve posted Vietnam!
Finally, a clear video of David’s appearance on Jenny Jones Show
I think I will also create a Pre-Idol Page here at TDC
JR -- Good idea about creating these for each Asian appearance/concert. I think we could repost them for the week of each concert, too, just to keep them up front. I Love the styling of this poster!
Yeah, I like the poster too! Classy, just like the star on it
Jr Mostly lurk here but want you to know how much I appreciate all the work you and Marlie do to document David’s journey. Has there been anything on the Asia radio interview he did ?
Does anyone remember the concert where David sang a Spanish song by Selena with the bachata group. one of the fans did a drawing of David from a picture taken there. The concert was in Texas last year.
So happy David is enjoying Nashville!!!

“…After the weekend my internship started and you would never guess who decided to pop into my lobby during my first week. DAVID freakin ARCHULETA. REALLY? excuse me, let me calm down. really? its my first week here and I’m already running into a celebrity? Although I didn’t get to meet him, it was all the gossip that the interns of EMI CMG Publishing needed to start their week off right in nasville, TN.
…”
Yes Marlie! Couldn’t remember the name of the show or the name of the song but remembered the outfit and general info.
Thanks so much!

One of the best bio write-up on David
David Archuleta
David Archuleta has been a growing international music sensation since his runner-up performance in the seventh season of American Idol in 2008. Now with the release of his highly anticipated second album, “The Other Side of Down”, capturing two years’ worth of personal introspection and reflection, dozens of songwriting sessions, long days spent in the studio and nights in the air, David’s national presence is about to take a giant leap forward.
Performing at IDOL MUSIC 2011, you will be re-introduced to the American Idol runner-up with the angelic voice who 30 million television viewers fell in love with during season 7—now older, wiser, with faith still on his side and an eternally optimistic wide-eyed outlook—hence, his album’s title, “For me, it’s about moving forward and making progress,” David explains. “I’m heading towards ‘the other side of down,’ which is ‘up.’”
Actually, there are many sides to David Archuleta, all of which find a place on the record. There’s the youthful David, affectionately known as Archie, who often emerges on TV in the form of a mid-interview giggle; You can find him on the title track whose bouncy, island vibe vows that nothing’s going to break his pop stride.
Then you have David the inspiration and role model, who looks deep inside and up above for guidance on how to navigate the world around him—much as he describes on the track “Things Are Gonna Get Better,” which spots a silver lining in the darkest of clouds and enlists a full gospel choir to drive the point home.
And there’s the insatiably curious David, who doesn’t have all the answers but is resolved to keep searching for them. Look no further than his sugar sweet single “Something ‘Bout Love” for the sound of reach-for-the-sky bliss, and the hard-driving big chorus of “Complain,” which, despite its title, is an encouraging song beckoning the listener not to take anything for granted.
It’s a sentiment David is all too familiar with, not just from having reached second place on Idol, but seeing massive success straight out the gate with the song “Crush,” which charted at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 the week of its 2008 release and has since sold two million downloads. “I wasn’t expecting to be in the finale and I wasn’t expecting to get a record deal right after my interviews that night,” David admits. “My plan was to go back to school after the Idol tour so I wasn’t entirely prepared to make an album, which is why I was really surprised that it did as well as it did.” David also released “Christmas from the Heart” which debuted at No. 2 on the seasonal chart behind Bob Dylan.
While no stranger to pressure—he did sail through three months’ worth of intense competition on TV’s biggest stage—having a hit record under his belt meant defining his place in music beyond being a pop culture footnote. “I don’t want my music to have boundaries,” David declares. “It was so neat to see how positive fans were about ‘Crush,’ but with this album, my participation in each of the songs ties them together and they’re all me.”
Feeling a greater sense of purpose is nothing new to fans of the now 19-year-old Utah native who overcame vocal cord paralysis at age 13 while competing on CBS’s “Star Search.” The trying experience was chronicled in David’s 2010 book “Chords of Strength” and resonates in the overall message of “The Other Side of Down”. “Instead of acting like everything in life is so hard and confusing, look at it this way: the only way you can go from here is up,” he says. “It’s our decisions and how we handle things, even when they get rough. If we keep holding on, looking at things positively and working hard, we can improve our lives, help ourselves, and even help the greater good.”
To that end, David’s current musical tastes run the pop-rock gamut, from acoustic guitar-driven singer-songwriters like Jason Mraz to the electronic sounds of female innovators like Imogen Heap and A Fine Frenzy. Surprising? Hardly if you consider David’s appreciation for the beauty of melody, a trait he displayed time and time again while performing on Idol. “It’s amazing how one song can change someone’s life,” says David. “It’s been done for me so many times and I want to give to my fans the same thing those artists have given me.”
Don’t miss the many sides of David at IDOL MUSIC 2011!

David Archuleta -- Guest Artist @ One Voice CD -- POWER IN PURITY demo clip (release date: 18 June 2011)
It would appear that David found some time to collaborate with One Voice Children’s Choir, former 2002 Winter Olympic Children’s Choir. They continue to share their light within through inspirational music composed and arranged by their director Masa Fukuda. The choir consists of 120 children from Salt Lake and Utah Valley.

Well, David Archuleta is here at The Civil Wars concert. Hasn’t started yet. Can’t believe I left my camera in the car.
Why am I not surprised he is there
Okay, so I’m not a big fan of that song David is singing with the children’s choir, but I’m a HUGE fan of that Voice. It doesn’t matter what he sings, I love hearing it -- and his voice is particularly beautiful on that recording.
Talk to you in the morning, JR! (I guess that will be your tonight!)
Yup. I have my head straightened out after last night. Sorry again
JR -- you rock!

BEST I CAN
YOU ALONE
FALLING
We all know that David wrote Falling. But according to SomethingBoutArchie, he also wrote Best of Me & You Alone and all three were intended for the TOSOD album.
This is SO precious on 2 counts and they are in the opposite side of the spectrum

Yes, this is David Archuleta. Yes, that’s me beside him. And yes, if it looks to you like he’s holding my hand, go on believing it. Notice that he’s only a couple inches taller than me, making me the perfect size for him and making us the perfect couple. He is the love of my life.
But seriously. I “ran into” him last night at the Nashville Sounds Mormon Night. Not sure why a minor league baseball team hosted a Mormon night, but it was really cool. The missionaries sang the National Anthem. Anyways, Jeff and his friends were roaming all over the stadium, jeering at the opponents and annoying fans with their yelling. They stumbled upon none other than David Archuleta and his parents and girlfriend (we think). So they sat behind the family and cheered really loudly. The Archuletas turned around, said those seats were taken, and asked them to leave.
Jeff and Co. came to our section again, mentioned that David Archuleta was there, and several of us girls joined them. We scoured the stadium because David had gotten up for drinks or something and was gone from his seats. We followed his mother. We placed ourselves directly at the entrance to his section. And we waited. Finally! He appeared. He was talking to a group of people. We kind of cut in and asked for pictures, and he seemed a little peeved that people had noticed him and were making a big deal out of it, but HEY! We’re his fans and he’s gotta be nice to us and there was NO way I was leaving without meeting him.
So he took the picture with us! I was way way way nervous and I have to admit I was kind of trembling a little because I have never before been in the presence of a demigod (just kidding! about the demigod part, not the trembling part, that bit is true). He was nice, very quiet, very short, just really subdued. I also got a picture with Ozzie, the mascot, but I don’t care that much about him and I’m too lazy to put the picture up.
So there’s how I got to meet my future husband (he’s supposedly moving to Nashville and that gives me a better chance at wooing him, even if he’s got a girlfriend!!!!)

BEST I CAN LYRICS (of the snippet)
Plain objects placed into my hand
I can’t exactly do a thing but try to understand
What I’m expected to do with them
My mind has already filled it’s memory capacity
But some’s spilling out on the ground
Getting trampled by my own two feet all around
The road I’m taking to see where life goes
It’s a hike but I like what it shows
I’m doin’ the best I can
to live up to life’s demands
sometimes I don’t know where I stand
Another David sighting -- in Paramount

Omg!!! I seen David Archuleta today at paramount!!!!
