Another local channel gets into the David in Manila Buzz! TV5 talents known as ‘PO5′ are set to perform on David’s Skydome concert this Wednesday, November 17. Apparently, they’ll be the opening act for this event. Yay for them!

Here’s a clip of the news. It’s not the best quality video but be sure to check it out!

Thanks @gemcruz for the headsup!

May 16, 2009. D DAY. A year after.

Most of us, if not all, probably had the best moment in our lives on May 16, 2009. The day when David Archuleta went on the stage in MOA grounds to celebrate his music, with his fans–us. Who would have thought he’ll be coming to Manila that soon? We definitely know that he’ll be coming here but not that soon, right? I guess, our prayers were answered in 2009. DAVID. ARCHULETA. LIVE. IN. MANILA. BEST DAY EVER.

Good things come to those who wait. INDEED.

I’m not gonna go and ramble here, ramble there ’cause this recap would definitely be a novel in no time. I’m gonna try and make this recap short but sweet. The operative word is TRY. So, please, bear with all the words. Haha. It’s a FUN moment!

Anyhow, MOA grounds were packed by fans. GAZILLION! OK, so not GAZILLION, but still a HUGE crowd–around 40,000 or more SCREAMING fans. If there’s one thing that’s constant throughout the week, the SCREAMS would win hands down. Thousand and thousands of screaming fans–young or old–screamed for David Archuleta. (See? SCREAM is a constant word here) Lights on, not that special. Then, it went dark. MAGIC. SCREAMS. Music, guitar, bass, drums. MAGICAL SCREAMS once again. David comes out. Waving. Smiling. Starts singing. Best couple of minutes ever. WOW. One word: AMAZING. Wait! It’s more that amazing–this is probably the best description. He is beyond amazing. These songs he sang–Touch My Hand, A Little Too Not Over You, Barriers, You Can, My Hands, My Hands, Your Eyes Don’t Lie, To Be With You, Don’t Let Go, Waiting for Yesterday, Stand By Me/Beautiful Girls, A Thousand Miles, Angels, Zero Gravity and Crush–he sang brilliantly! I must say, he’s definitely a great LIVE performer. [emphasis on live] Just WOW. Seems like May 16 was just yesterday, eh? Re-living the moment. Words can’t even describe and express how it felt during the concert. The band was awesome. The crowd was great and loud. David is perfection.

This day last year, the Archienoys’ & Archietects’ ARCHUWEEK started! And of course, the first event was…

David’s Arrival!

See below how the Pinoy Archies welcomed David!

Everyone was so startled when David and his band landed on the airport via Qatar airwyas at 3:30pm on May 12, 2009. It was a hot sunny day when fans flocked into the airport’s road just to greet David a warm & hot Filipino welcome! (video credits to AP’s eugene).

Mayhem at the airport. Only David Archuleta can cause this much commotion — which according to some press people -- was even greater than the welcome The Pacman got! David was mobbed left & right that the customary 15-minute stay at the VIP Lounge to Immigration and out to the Arrival Area stretched into almost an hour Great, great work Archuleta Philippines for warmly welcoming David -- Mabuhay indeed!  (footage provided by Naree, video credits to JR4DA)

Remembering Day 1 of the Archuweek!

JackRyan4DA best described what was going through the mind of every Pinoy Archie that time!

He is now walking the same soil and pavement that I have walked on! For the 1st time, has gone through the same infamous EDSA traffic that I go through daily; Is breathing the same polluted air am breathing; Is enduring -- but maybe not ☺ -- the same hot weather that makes SPF more relevant than ever.

Yet TODAY will be forever etched in my memory as one of those perfect days.

Read JR4DA’s EPIC RECAP OF DAY 1 (complete w/ links, vids, pics, etc) and together, let’s relive the wonderful day 1 of that memorable archuweek!

Media Coverage!

Translation: DA arrived past 3pm this afternoon. Soon as he went out of the arrival area of NAIA T1, he was mobbed by the media, even by the airport personnel and immigration people. People just kept taking pictures of/with the singer; afterwhich, he proceeded to the VIP lounge to take care of the necessary documents. Cook arrived earlier this afternoon. Both are here for their back to back concert. Archuleta is also set to guest on SIS, this Thursday.

Newsclip on the David’s arrival! I see banners! I see awesome archangels! I see beautiful people! I see Mr. sunshine! And the close up! Woo.

That’s David Archuleta Live in Manila. Just in case you didn’t know.
