His superpowers on full display… give the boy a cape already!!!

Seriously though, this smile keels me… it’s sure not a VIP smile… it looks to be a 100% fanboy smile 🙂 🙂 🙂

Great to see him in his element, having fun with like-minded peeps…..

Am I wrong to hope he’s doing some singing there and we will get some vids or at least clips?? A full set of Disney songs that we know he loves and can sing the heck out of??

I know. I know. We’re getting another EP in a few weeks and (hopefully) some tour dates, so I will refrain from my first impulse (of pure greed 🙂 ) and keep expectations low, as per usual. It’s sure worked out well so far, I must say. #blessed

How about you guys?? What do you think a David signature scent would smell like?

A) Fresh tortillas with a top note of cilantro

B) The sun-kissed hide of a grazing unicorn

C) The warm cotton crease inside a rolled-up T-shirt sleeve

D) A lion’s mane freshly washed in Head & Shoulders

E) A baby’s forehead sprinkled with Fiji water

Your eyes don’t lie

Will just leave this here for youze guyz.

I love the confident, direct, “knowing” expression on his face with just the hint of a dimple.

As if to say, “I know who I am. I know where I’m going. I know I look dang good.”

“Rain on my shows, take away my sugar, delay my flights… nothin’s gonna keep me down … especially if there’s free food involved.”

No idea who the photographer is or why the picture was taken, but I’d bet my entire collection of David key chains that if this gaze was on an album cover, no one could resist buying it.

Amirite??

… to realizing this was the cover for the single:

.

… to counting up how many times I gifted the single

Awesome avec sauce

I forgot how amazing these VIP perfs are… bless you, Miss Shell, for capturing them!

Unplugged versions

makes me a little sad he refers to having to make TOSOD as a “setback” ROFLOL

Plugged in

With the full band (where you can see his superhero shield 🙂  … and learn the backstory to Who I Am … omigosh the ending, he needs to add this into his show!
.

.

The ending there too… wow, just wow!

.

I am a 100% fan of unplugged but I honestly love both versions of both.

How about you guys??

Official-ish @DavidArchie Bored Game

game-board.

Hola, sweet lovelies.

In the interest of keeping us all uber-productive while we wait for new David Archuleta music and tour news, here’s a little activity you can play alone or with Budchuletas.

The rules are simple… roll the dice and let the emotional rollercoaster of being an Archie fan Begin.! (see what I did there? 🙂 )

It’s not only super fun and educational but will also quell withdrawal DTs from the phenomenal Orion Tour.

Game on!!!

p.s.

Here’s a link to the lovely & amazing Tina’s Say Me St. Louis audio… a little too not over it… and the mp3 that Angel Abrra has made for us all.
.
p.p.s.
the audio for this spontaneously came up on my iTunes, so I just went with it… as one does… and wow, just wow, forgot how incredible it is….

.
How about you guys?? Any older songs you’ve “rediscovered” lately??

Official scientific definition of ‘soon’

Shelley.PNG.
Maruschka.PNG

Wow! Could not be more excited for this news!

Fall dates announced “soon.”

For a more precise look at what that means, science wise, we consulted our crack team of SAz, um…. astrophysicists! Yes that’s it. And here’s what they came up with:

Soon

.

  1. Take the square of the hypotenuse of the time it takes David to recover from limbo dancing enough to do Higher Ground head whips.
    .
  2. Multiply that by the number of times you’ve watched the Troubadour Up All Night (Dance Fever edition).
    .
  3. Add that to the square root of how many times Kari giggles while David goes sock & sandal shopping.
    .
  4. Use a slide rule to calculate the average weight of a Utah fox (and no, I do not mean David… behave) and subtract from the total.
    .
  5. Divide that by the time it takes for your mind to go completely blank during VIP.
    .
  6. And, finally, round off that number to the nearest decimal point for an exact date for when we’ll hear about tour dates… aka sometime in 2018… or 19...

 

So what do you guys think?? When do you think we’ll hear??

Questions arise (‘natch):

Pic 1&2

Did he actually play the piano in the music store? Did mayhem ensue?

How much do you love the yellow piano? (I want one and I don’t even play.)

Who’s the dude in the matching yellow shirt behind him also taking a picture? (Does he come with the piano?)

Pic 3

Did they charge him for the lemonade?

Did they keep the cup and put it in a special vault?

What’s in his backseat? Kari?

Did he find the lemonade stand on Yelp?

IG stories

How old is he again? 🙂 🙂 🙂

How about you guys? Any Qs come to mind? 🙂
