Poor David getting stuck with that Disney product. Hopefully he’s the main act, though it would be funny if he’s the support act and the venue starts clearing out halfway through Demi’s set.

I agree with chessguy… surely he’s not the opening act.

I don’t watch Disney! I had no idea who she was! I just saw her picture, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen her before?

Best of luck to Archie! He’s a great kid. He didn’t come to Dallas, or I would have gone to see him.

Sigh. Sadly i don’t think i’ll be making this tour even though i’ve gone to them all. I don’t think i can spend the 65 dollars plus travel necessary to watch him open for Demi

Arg, she can’t sing, but it’s a good match up otherwise, in terms of target market.

WTF why can’t he tour with someone good or have a solo tour

its for promotiom sake, apparently a movie with the jobros didn’t do it so why not recruit david? though i would really prefer another solo tour. Demi has a big enough fanbase, i’m leaving right after david.

the county fair tickets seem cheaper, but the ones of her at the bigger venues go up to 50. And ticketmaster has all those bogus fees nowadays so it gets worse lol. And if they go on sale april 25th like snarkies said, i really don’t think i’ll have the money in time to get a seat :-/ but i encourage you to kidnap me maryanne! <3 you

Awww. I’m super excited. I love both Demi and David’s albums:) I’m also excited for Archie and Mi;ey’s duet (I love Miley’s album as well). I love her new single The Climb for her new movie. I really wanna watch it. I’m so excited and I’m a freshman in college. lol. I’m a Disney Fantard. I never attended a concert before and I’d love my first to be David’s. Here’s hoping they come to Hawaii.

I think David is the opening act, even though I think he has sold twice as many albums.

On the bright side, she wants to do more John Mayer-ish stuff on her next album. And she and John Mayer twitter each other. I listened to her music videos on YouTube and I like two of them a lot.

Hopefully this will get David more fans and not paint him more Disney.

BTW – Cute story about some fancy organic cupcakes a Malaysian fan made for David. And there is a link at the end (word “here” I think) with a link to David’s cupcakes, fan cupcakes, and more. yum

Ok, honestly? … sorry, not thrilled … I was hoping for a BIG main star attraction that David would open for … Demi is too new for that … she’s in the same boat as David is … a newcomer … so how the heck can David be an opener for her, excuse me?! … someone please explain the logic in that?! … sigh … I would have at least been more excited if it was JB or MC even though I don’t care for them, at least they are HUGE … but Demi? meh …

I will remain positive though … David will be touring again this summer!! tons more vids!! WOOHOO!! … I hope it will be in our area again like for his solo tour in Madison … that was the best time!! Sooooo looking forward to seeing him perform live again!!! GO DAVID GO!!!

I’m glad to hear it sounds like David will be home to celebrate Easter with his family?! I sure hope so, cause that’s where he belongs right now!!!

Happy Easter to David and all his Angels!!! ♥

I’ll refrain from pre-judging Demi’s music because I really haven’t heard it. I am absolutely certain that David is worth the money and effort, so I’ll be going if at all possible.

He should go on tour with Jason Mraz, or Sara Bareilles. Not Demi. Ugh.

Thanks for coming to the cellcast. And everyone else who came to, thanks for watching. It was so much fun to do.

Some new videos…

Nice interview, especially at the end where they ask David 3 things he does not like about himself. He almost outdoes the haters sometimes – lol.

Nice news piece on Singapore News 5

And a fan video – a year difference: Imagine and Zero Gravity – watch your volume – the SLC screams will blow your eardrums. Good coverage of stage using clips from multiple videos.

How can David open for someone, he’s sold more than twice the albums she’s sold. She’s pretty big, in the TV industry, she’s had a TV movie, a show, and is currently filming the sequel to the TV movie but in the music industry? David’s sold more. So they should just co-headline each other.

David and Demi??
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

“opening for someone bigger this summer” is just what the initial info was. Since it’s actually Demi, maybe they will be co-headliners.

This first article states it as Demi will be touring with David.
http://www.allheadlinenews.com/articles/7014765484

So we have to wait and see. Regardless, I think we have to make the most of it. There’s grumbling on both sides. I think David’s fans should take the high road.

And this is cute – a snippet of David on MTV Asia – bad video but such an honest interviewer.

ree … I really had a fun time at the kl cellcast! thanks again! Good luck with your plans to see David in Manila … even though you don’t know how you’re going to do it yet! lol! I have faith you’ll get to see him yet!!

i’ve never even heard a single demi song…. maybe i should………. anywho – omb! davie is doing so well!! voilet is right, we shouldn’t be complaining bout who david’s on tour with, we should be celebrating his success!!!! i mean he’s only had TWO (super-awesome major hit) singles out so far, and he’s had a solo tour and travelled to different countries and now he’s performing on two other tours and travelling to more cool places and he’s had all this fame and success despite all those naggers who said he would bomb and he’s had the yummiest, most professional-ist home-made cupcakes that i have ever seen in my life made for him! *pant* *pant* anywho, what i’m saying is it don’t matter who he tours with – david could sell hannah montana tickets to a middle-aged man.

I can’t wait! When are they selling out the tickets? I love them both, just not as a couple. That’s just plain ew. But, I love them both musically, and I can’t wait to get tickets (if I can!) I’m screaming! AAAA! Demi and David are cool (again, not as a couple). And I don’t think Demi is Disney trash, that’s just cruel. =( I like Demi and David! CAN’T WAIT!

Also, I hope he goes in Asia- that’s where I live! David, come to Hong Kong! LOL! But that would be so cool- even if I go to the states for the summer! But if he’s in San Jose when I’m there, I’ll totally go- as long as the tickets are not too pricey! Plus, I went to the American Idol concert last year! I can’t wait!
