Nice new post DJAfan! Sorry to say that I won’t be able to go to any Christmas concert this year. It really hurts since I have went to at least one every year since American Idol! The dates just don’t jive with when I can go. If only he would come back to KC….it’s been 2 years since he was here. I’ll just have to watch the videos which don’t do him justice! Nothing takes the place of a live David! 🙂

David’s show on Tuesday in Moab was,as usual, a great place to be. The venue probably held 150-200 people maximum. David was David… the crowd loved him… my family loved him… and yep! I loved him. My 10 year old grandson was seeing him for the first time and was so happy that he sang his favorite song — My Little Prayer. Yeah, I’m glad we made the trip down just for this sweet little guy to hear his favorite song. It also gave us the opportunity to spend Thanksgiving with the family here in Monticello which is just 50 miles from Moab.
I hope you’ve all had a wonderful holiday and here’s to the rest of this season.

Exciting news for Jan and Djafan! Abrra, I really hope you can get to Boston! I’m going to play the waiting game and see if anything closer opens up. Idaho is just 4-5 hours away, but I’m just weary of traveling. Our Fall time vacaction took its toll and I can’t even think of traveling and lodging. I’m getting old.
If he doesn’t come to Utah then I’ll have to watch and listen to what is posted online. I’ve found it very interesting that videos and photos have been very scarce thru this Christmas tour.

Wow, so many cities on his spring tour and he said there will be more added in, so Tawna, I bet he will be in Utah some time or other. I agree with you on traveling as much…age is one thing and money is another for me. So it is awesome that he will be back close to me. 🙂

Jan, did you get your tickets? It’s awesome that he’s finally back there where you can see his concert. It’s been a while since you were able to. And, I agree with the age and finances stuff. Living on ‘retired’ incomes makes a difference. Plus the fact that my hubby wants to go to Alaska next summer/fall will play a big part in what happens with a concert. I can’t say that I’m up for another cruise, but if that’s what it takes to get him there that’s what it will have to be. 🙂
I loved watching David work at getting himself unstuck a couple of times with the mom and glitter thing. He worked through it pretty well.:D

No I haven’t got it yet. Want to see if any of my kids are going. Show is cheap enough but the VIP is higher than last time so not sure that I will go to that since I have been to so many. But………..that is part of the fun.. 🙂 so I will end up going…never can pass it up! 🙂 It’s not a very big place so I probably shouldn’t wait too long and it’s not reserved seating. With VIP I would be down in front for sure. But I know what you mean about SS. Being retired has it’s good points but no money isn’t fun. Good thing I feel good enough to still work a little to compensate. Good thing I didn’t try to go to Nashville as my daughter still hasn’t had her surgery because of dragging their feet on the paper work. It will be so good to be able to hear all his new songs from his new album.
Yes, he is always self concious when he talks, but it was cute the way he came out with that comment! If I thought the whole world was watching me talk, I would be the same way! He is entirely a different person when he sings. He is so endearing. At least he can sing…I can’t! LOL

I’m just loving that David is FINALLY getting to new places or re-visiting some that he hasn’t been to for such a very long time. I’m perfectly fine with not seeing Utah on the line-up because it means he and his managers are thinking about all the other places he needs to visit. And, I’m pretty sure he’ll show up here sooner or later. 🙂
We spent the day at a drill team competition where our granddaughter was performing with her high school. It was fun to watch all of the high school-age girls performing the dances and drills that they’ve spent countless hours learning and perfecting. I remember being on the drill team (many, many moons ago) and being able to move my body like they were today. There ain’t no way on this green earth I could even begin to do those jump into it splits. It just pained me to watch them. haha! While we were watching the girls our daughter was constantly getting an update from her husband 300 miles away at home on their son who was wrestling. Oh, those days when there are two kids, two different sports, two different venues to be at. That’s why we have kids then and not now so our young bodies are doing the chasing. Just sayin’. Anyway, he wrestled 8 matches in two days and won 9 (?). Yep, it happened that way. He had one match that his opponent forfeited so he got the win. Those are the matches that are a mercy when they come at the end of the day. He pinned all of them but the one that forfeited. He and his little brother were also with us at David’s concert in Moab. So, he’s not all brute and brawn, he does enjoy some cultural things! 😀
So, back to David. I think I’ll go stream some David Christmas music and let the rest of this Saturday evening just happen. ♥♥

The morning after concert #2 in Franklin, TN… There were several standing ovations last night and if there had been time between numbers there would have been more. I travelled the distance to see him because there is nothing any more real or exciting about the spirit of Christmas than the time you can spend listening to David sing.
‘O Holy Night’ was astounding. I have never seen or heard anyone in music even come close to his performance. His voice filled the air like ten voices or more and he took us to a new place. We were in absolute awe. It was a concert that would have been perfect for a full professional taping.
Here’s hoping that a good video will appear soon.

SB,
It sounds like Tennessee is where David’s heart has rested. Those concerts seem to be truly outstanding. They all are, but I think TN. and SLC is where he works the hardest. Maybe one of these concerts will get taped by a professional … we can hope! It’s so good to hear from you! ♥
‘O Holy Night’ sung by David Archuleta has raised the bar that will never be topped. I’ve done a lot of comparisons because I’ve tried to find one that can top his … it hasn’t happened! Even in the very small venue that we were in last month, he had the rafters ringing and rattling with his voice and spirit. People were sitting absolutely frozen!! I may have just had some tears in my eyes as I watched my daughter, her two sons, and the girlfriend of one of them become one with David. It truly does happen. ♥♥

Sb,I agree on O Holy Night. It was outstanding. I sat there watching hi, just mesmerized. The best yet. Pam took the video of David singing the whole song and I got to hear it on FB. She didn’t make it where I could share it but maybe it will show up on Youtube.
Tawna, David singing Christmas songs can’t be topped, that’s for sure. ♥

djafan…..’Thank you’ so much for bringing along the video of ‘O Holy Night’, from Franklin. It is difficult to get the full impact of the song by video but we can all imagine how his voice filled the theatre. As in other concerts I am certain, he left people standing in absolute awe. I would make the very long trip just to see him sing this encore.
