Two back-to-back M&G, separated by a re-routing road scheme due to the taping of Bourne Legacy and you bet there’s bound to be bedlam in the metropolis!

The Archuletor was SOMETHING ELSE! If some quarters have not been bitten by the Archu-BUG, this twin-set of M&G should do it. Am telling you, David was in his element. He looked so happy.

HAWT! ROCKIN’! and SUPER ADORABLE! And the fans. They were incredible.

Congrats TV5! Thank you for bringing such bubbly spirit into our shores.

Sunshine seems to follow David Archuleta. Or is it the other way around – that David brings sunshine wherever he goes? Cos that was surely the case when he was here in Manila.

July being known as a typhoon month in these parts, Manila Archies were a bit concerned. But upon David’s arrival on the 17th, the lovely Manila skies opened up to greet him with the warmest of all reception. And as you can see in the July weather calendar below, it stayed that way throughout his visit

Then as he left Manila’s area of responsibility shortly before noon on the 21st, the sunny skies suddenly retreated, turned downcast and grey. It was as if the weather was on a melancholy pause…

I twitted this observation to a number of Archies and they replied back that their spouses/parents said the same dang thing!

That afternoon, the skies gave way to torrential rains. The downpour continues to this day.

Epic Month
July 2011 will always be remembered as the epic Asian Tour month. With an estimated concert ticket sales of over 35,000 from his 5-leg Asian tour spread over 12 days and priceless media mileage across the South East Asian region, David can sure beam that irresistible mega-watt smile for a job well done!

As early as now, Manila Archies are already talking of DALIM4. The rest of the Asian countries he visited are campaigning for a Christmas Tour. Well, if that ever pushes through, David will have to brace himself for how Manila celebrates Christmas.

At the very least, it will surely be an unforgettable experience for him and his team. Being the only Christian nation in the whole of Asia, we’re pretty cra-zeh about Christmas festivities. Consider this: you can hear Christmas songs here as early as October and the length of the Yuletide celebration runs till the 1st week of January. Told you, we’re a crazy lot, LOL

Missing David
We miss you buddy. We miss your warmth, your kindness, your generosity. We miss your appreciation and respect for different cultures. We miss your engaging and inspiring spirit.

We miss your “I-am-not-better-than-anyone-of-you” philosophy which you put to action wherever you go. This is something that a lot of us can take a page from. That is one reason why Asia will always be here for someone like you, David

What better way to celebrate this final recap of the 2011 Asian Tour than with an array of photos from various Archies and media outlets, displaying that incomparable and infectious smile. A toast to your flight of amazingness, David!

Hey guys!

Have you ever wanted those lovely pictures of David and stories of his accomplishments all wrapped up in a nice little package? Well, now you have an opportunity to purchase a book that I have put together of David’s career growth in 2009. It features some of our favorite fan photographers as well as some professional photos and it benefits two worthy causes! I have documented David’s accomplishments last year in a high qualilty, hard-backed book that covers David’s career in 2009 and 100% of my profits will be divided equally between MS and Make A Wish. The book is $62.45 plus tax and shipping and almost $19 will go to charity. Go to the link, take a look and enjoy the walk down memory lane!

If you ordered a book from me last year, you can use your old sign in. If not, create a new one and click on the bubble below the “David Archuleta 2009″ icon. Then go above it and click on “preview” and you can see each page. Sorry you can’t read what I printed on the back cover, but it’s a statement about the proceeds going to charity, photographer credit for the front cover pic and a quote from a letter one of David’s fans wrote. Anyway, if you’d like to purchase one, just click on “order” and follow the steps and that’s all you need to do.

If you are outside of the United States, you can “preview” the book but it will not allow you to “order” due to shipping limitations. So email me at amynorfleet14@yahoo.com and let me know you are interested and I will be happy to help you.

Many thanks to all who have supported me and this project! I hope you all enjoy it! But mostly, thanks for your support of David’s music and his charitable spirit.

Blessings & peace,
Amy (in VA)

No one takes photos of David like Jennifer Barry!  She can really capture the joy, the intensity, the exuberance of the live performance. She has some fresh new photos of the Las Vegas and Seattle shows.  To view them, go to Jennifer Barry photos.

Enjoy!  And thanks Jennifer, for sharing these with the fans!

David has been a true inspiration to me this past year.  I have always had a passion for photography but had kind of put in on the “shelf” so to speak, after my son was born. Yes, I took pictures of my son, but the creativity in photo taking had lost its edge. When I met David last year at the meet-n-greet before the concert, I had only brought my small point and shoot and used that to take the photos (specifically the “archugaze” shot and “bible” shot) that ended up being shown on fan site after fan site, more spec. I was very shocked to see the photos I had taken of David being loved by so many fans.

When I saw David at the AI Finale concert in Tulsa, OK, I was blessed and very very lucky to get 3rd row, next to the cat walk. I had never had an opportunity to take concert shots as I never had seats close to the stage. I had no idea what quality my photos would be of David as it was my first time to take photos like this of David. An angel above must have blessed me that night, as I was fortunate to take some pretty good pictures that even impressed me and I am a HUGE critic of my photos.

Because of all these photos I have taken and shared with all of David’s fans, I have had the amazing opportunity to meet so many people personally and via the web who share the same views as me and love David the same as me. This book represents how David rejuventated the photographic ”spark” in me. It was my goal, through this book, to show David the photos I have taken of him through his AI Tour this past year to headlining his own tour and I wanted to simply show him the photos that have made so  many people happy, including me.

I truly believe I have been blessed because my photos are meant for all the fans to enjoy through their personal means and also so that my photos could help the many charities close to David. In no way do I think my photos of David are better than any other fans, I just wanted David to know how much it has meant to me that he helped rekindle my love for photography. I hope this book is something David and his family can look back on for years to come and know that David is and will always be David.

– Jennifer Barry

Fans of David have been inspired to create video tributes, cartoons, poetry, portraits and even blogs to celebrate the music and artistry of this special singer. Jennifer Leigh Barry expresses her ODD through her photographs. The collage above is her tribute to Don’t Let Go, a favorite song of many on The David Chronicles. If you visit Jennifer’s mediafire account, you’ll find hundreds of gorgeous photos and collages as well as music and video files. Check out the two new calendars that she made recently in honor of David Archuleta Day. Jennifer is a great example of the generous and creative people that David attracts into his circle of fans.

I ask you: Have you ever seen a more contented picture of David Archuleta? It warms my heart.
