(Here’s the Archey Report of archiesangel08! Sherri was one of our cellcasters last night and she had awesome sound on her cellphone!)
On my way to meet the buses I got lost in Detroit (as I do whenever I go to the east side of the state). I stopped at a gas station and a VERY nice lady tried to explain how to get to the venue, saw the bewildered look on my face, and offered to take me there if I followed her, how sweet! So I get there around 12:00 and wait in the 90 degree blazing sun (I have a sunburn on my forehead). There weren’t too many people there, but they kept arriving so by the time idols started coming out I would consider it a medium size crowd. Lots of Cookies, Archies and Dreadheads, with scatters of MJ, Carly, and other fans. This one lady asked to take a picture of my sign, I was so proud! It just said David Archuleta on top, Jason Castro on the bottom, and in the middle it said “Welcome to Michigan”, I hope they saw it when they went by in the buses.

(Here’s the Archey Report from FunnyGirl from Detroit! Woohoo!)
Part 1
OMG you guys I am still shaking! We arrived early and were there right when the doors opened. We walked into the arena to find our seats and when I saw how good they were I started to SCREAM repeatedly and CRY! My sister and niece were officially afraid of what was in store for the rest of the evening! LOL I thought I was going to vomit but I forced myself to eat dinner and drink something so I wouldn’t pass out. I felt better after I ate but I started to sweat and cried off all my makeup! Major fangirl moment!
I hope no one minds but I am not going to go over the other people’s performances - I can do it later if you want me too. I will say that everyone was really good and it was a very good show! When Syesha came out I knew it wouldn’t be long until David A.’s set. I started crying again, and sweating again LOL! I have the video of his introduction and Angels but I don’t think I’ll be able to upload it with Photobucket because it is telling me that the file is too large. If anyone has another idea that would be great but I do not have a Youtube account, maybe I’ll have to open one.

(Here’s Freo’s Archey Report from Indianapolis! Yay!)
Thank you for reading my report of the Indianapolis concert on Tuesday, July 22! I know there are some people reading this who will not have an opportunity to see David in concert during this tour, so I especially thought of you while writing this. As you read below, you will find out why my username is “Freo.” Also, before you begin reading, this is a friendly warning that my report is quite long. I’m a features reporter by training and there were loads of details I had been wondering about before the day’s events.
Before I get started, I’d like to note that fans have already captured excellent concert videos with cameras far more sophisticated than mine. I am sharing the links to my concert clips, though, so you can see some more Indy clips. I mostly focused on set introductions and David’s comments talking between songs. In addition, I am sharing some excellent (and unexpected) videos made during the pre-concert bus meet and greet. You can find URL’s to my videos on YouTube in this report.

David Cook’s buddy Andy Skib will be performing at the Roxy Theatre in LA on Tuesday July 29.
So my Internet just got zapped a few minutes ago, but now its back.
Meanwhile, I discovered that I had dropped my phone in the taxi!
I tried calling — voice mail — and then calling again… and then my friend Arik answered the phone! WTF? He then explained that someone called him and he picked the phone up somewhere in the city. I guess he knew it was my phone because of caller ID. So he’s going to give me the phone tomorrow.
Omigosh, this is like the second time I’ve dropped my phone in the cab. I’m so old now.

5 cellcasters tonight: Sue, Sherri, Desi, Kristen and Anomar
Chikezie, Ramiele, Puppy Johns, Carly, Brooke, Jason, David and David

Again, delayed post here, mainly because I lost my cable TV and Internet last Monday.
This was a great episode! I must admit, I liked Nicole a bit tonight mostly because of her mother — who called her daughter “Omarosa” after Nicole reneged on her promise to ’self-evict”. Can Nicole be the Mole then? Possibly.
Craig is still my choice for the Mole, with Paul winning it all. With 4 of them left, anything can still happen.
Jon Kelley is HOT!
(Here’s the Castro Report from Hanna from Columbus, OH. Thanks Hanna for being one of our cellcasters!)
I’m a detail person so this will be long. My husband I arrived at the Schott in Columbus around 11:45 a.m.. I’d decorated the windows of our blue van with the words “WHAT A DAY FOR A DAYDREAM” “(HEART) JASON CASTRO” “DAYDREAMINGBOY.COM” Ours was the only decorated vehicle, which surprised me. My husband had to drive his van to work that way this morning because that window chalk doesn’t come off very easily!!!
A group of Dreadheads had their places staked out at the barriers so we joined them. Security had a narrow pathway marked off between the chain link fence and the parking lot. There was plenty of room for the approximately 250 fans. It was fun walking around talking to other Idol groups. The Cookies were definitely present, as were the Arch Angels. The Schott Security staff was very nice. George kept looking at his schedule, letting us know what was going on. It turns out he didn’t know any more than we did. Wink

(Here’s a quick Cookey Report from Patti in Cincinnati. Thanks for being a cellcaster Patti! Sound difficulties aside, the show must go on! Thanks!)
Tidbits: The girls really scream for Archie and the crowd was really loud tonight.
Brooke20said this afternoon she was given some ice cream (her favorite flavor - chocolate chip cookie dough) from Graeter’s. That got a big cheer, it’s a Cincinnati brand that has been around since 1870 and is HUGE in this area.
Jason said, when introducing Crazy that he did the song about 8 times in auditions, but it was never on TV, so he wanted to it for us. I heard AI couldn’t get the rights to air it.
Michael Johns said to ask Cook how to spell Cincinnati, because he was teaching everyone earlier today.
When David came out he spelled it and said he had had to learn a song spelling it when he was a kid and still remembered. Cook said he was checking his e-mail; backstage when Carly came to tell him what a great loud crowd it was and Carly compared the loudness to Utah’s loudness, he imitated her using his version of her Irish accent, The rest of his banter was the usual. He is an unbelievable *THUD* I was ‘ploding during My Hero and Billie Jean.
During Don’t Stop the Music, instead of the robot dance, Cook got down on one knee in front of Michael and motioned somehow, but I couldn’t tell exactly what he was doing, I hope someone gets it on Youtube.

(Here’s the Archey Report from Dominic! Woohoo! We’re here for David Archuleta! Good job Dominic, thanks for being a cellcaster last night!)
Ok so the night was amazing. My concert was awesome INDEED. It first started off at the busses, where there were like 200 people waiting for the idols.. Chikeze came out first and then Kristi and Jason, followed by Archie and cook and then brooke and MJ. The other 3 ddint come out at all. Archie had to rush through the autographs because he had press, and so did MJ and cook, but cook came back out because he was literally there for like 2 minutes to sign stuff. When Archie came out the crowd went nuts of course, he started on my side YAY. He signed a few things for me and I got a Video of him signing some stuff. The idols were really cool signing especially Chikeze and Brook. Archie was signing a girls shirt when baseball fireworks went off and he almost literally fell to the ground because he was so scared and didn’t know what it was. It was the funniest and coolest moment I have ever seen, it was so great and funny. Anyway Jeff came out and I talked to him for a bit about things and how the tour and David was doing, we talked for about 15 minutes and he had to go in.
