I’m picked myself up off the floor and I think I’m ready for tonight. We’ll be here waiting anxiously for any tweets, texts, twitpics, whatever tidbits come our way 🙂
I’ll be updating with videos or whatever may appear from Westbury. Don’t hesitate to bring links if you find any!
This excerpt from PopCityLife interview with Steven the drummer sent twitter and David’s fansites wild.
“Steven: ha ha ha Well, the most I can say is that the versatility in genres are mindblowing, and that the Christmas spirit will definitely be felt! This one is one for the books! There is a cool surprise during a very well known Christmas song during the show. I can’t say what the song is, but the genre is rock. Listen up for it!”
Imagine him here tonight!
We are so ready for anything David. We might have to be picking ourselves off the floor but we’ll be here waiting anxiously for any tweets, texts, twitpics, whatever tidbits come our way 🙂

To hold us in the meantime here is what I think is David’s best interview to date.
Who’s feeling anxious and excited with David? Yeah, me too! His first stop on theMy Kind of Christmas Tourwas the laststop on hisChristmas From the Heart Tourtwo years ago: The Theater at Westbury in Westbury, New York.
I’ve been to this venue many times and I like it because it’s different. The theatre is in the round, the stage is in the center, and the audience sits around it. It has a nice intimate feel.
I took a ride to Westbury about two weeks ago to scout the area for restaurants for before or after the show.
I found a place nearby in walking distance, in case you get there early and want to hang out or grab a bite to eat before the show. They close at 8pm.
