西雅圖時報的Bob就是caseydog，也就是Reno演唱會站在版主旁邊的那個超級粉絲（不過他的同事都不知道他飛到Reno是專程來聽大衛演唱會的），也就是第二天早上請版主吃早飯的那個親切的Bob，本人比照片看起來年輕多了。大家看到這篇報導用的照片是甚麼嗎？哈，就是在下敝人不才照的，他還提到版主的名字，版主現在已經爽到天上去了。

這篇報導是必讀。

I must refute the constant claim that Archuleta's fans are all teen-age girls. While, yes, there were quite a few matching that description in the crowd, there were also plenty of men and women of all ages. In the pit in front of the stage, easily 40 percent of the people singing along and bopping up and down were male.

As for the show, well, it was fantastic. If you liked David during "Idol," you would probably like him even more now. His stage presence has obviously benefited from months of live performances. And as the reviewer for the local newspaper noted, nary an off note was heard all night.

There are three things about David Archuleta that strike me as refreshing:
• His technical singing skills are rare among pop singers. His powerful voice completely fills the venue — and yet he always resists the temptation to go over the top.
• You can't help but notice how much he simply loves music and singing. He's been called a human jukebox because of the way he breaks into song every time he hears a phrase that reminds him of a song lyric.
• He's forging a "new cool" for pop stars without even trying. He doesn't need — nor is he capable of — the crotch-grabbing and msyoginist insults of other male artists his age. Instead, he's constantly touting other singers — including David Cook — without expecting any such support in return.

If you saw David on this tour, share your thoughts in the comments!

Here are a few videos from the Reno show.

First up, courtesy of CynCity009, is David's "favorite songs" medley: "One" by U2, "Gotta Be" by Des'ree, "Love Song" by Sara Bareilles and "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz. The thing to notice here is that David loves these songs the same way we do, because they're great songs and you can sing along. The more fans sing along, the happier David seems to be.

Two more video clips after the jump ...

Next up, courtesy of Brandy811, is the song that's being called "the next big thing" on Web gossip sites: "Zero Gravity." It's a song co-written by David and guitarist Mike Krompass. Although a demo was made while the two were working on Archuleta's album last summer/fall, the song was never released. They included it in the tour setlist and it quickly became a fan favorite. Tell me what you think:

Late in the tour, David added a portion of Selena's "Como La Flor" to his setlist:
