Twitter Loves @DavidArchie!

Some fun popped up on Twitter today.  Thought I’d share!

Kina Grannis is excited! And so are we!

Paulo Coelho is following David!  WHAT?  How cool is that??

Screen shot 2009-11-08 at 8.47.16 PM

Paulo Coelho is the author of “The Alchemist,” a book that David was reading only a short time ago.  Jason Castro tweeted about it was well!  It is a book about life and dreams that has been a best-seller since it’s release over 20 years ago.

Janafod found a site with some really fantastic, inspiring Coelho quotes. One of my favorites is below:

“There are three things that a child can teach an adult:”
To be happy for no reason; to be always busy doing something;”
And to know how to demand – with all one’s might – what one wants”
(Paulo Coelho)

    Hello everyone! The first Christmas From The Heart concert is almost here! As you all know, the first two concerts will be in Salt Lake City, Utah!!! In less than three weeks, I will be attending these two concerts and would love to meet all those who will be attending! I have talked to many of you who would love to have a little gathering/reunion! I am not aware of any plans that have been made.

    In order to have a gathering/reunion, we need to get started right away. First things first, we need to know how many are interested in attending. If you would like to attend, please email me at foddavidg@gmail.com so we can have a head count.

    Please let me know which Salt Lake City concerts you will be attending and what day and time is best for you to attend the gathering/reunion. We will be trying our best to make this happen.

    As of now, JoyF, Lettie, Tina, LizardJ, and I are on the list to help out. We will need everyone’s help! If you can help or have any ideas, please let me/us know! I am very excited to be attending these concerts and to meet you all!

    Looking forward to hearing from you! Thanks!

    a heads up from snarky archies — please read!

    SLC VIP tix for someone special

    Snarkies is gifting a VIP tix to the first show in SLC on 11/24. We need your help in finding that person. They must have their own transportation to SLC, provide their own lodging and be at least 18 or able to make arrangements with someone attending the VIP to chaperone them.

    We would really love this VIP to go to someone who loves David, who supports David, and is inspired by David. Someone who has maybe never met him before, or has only said ‘hey’ in passing. Someone who without a VIP gift, they would not be able to meet David, or maybe not even attend the concert. If you know someone who fits these categories, let us know! Shoot us an e-mail! Tell us a little bit about the person you are nominating. Why do they deserve it? What makes their love for David so big?

    All eligible names will be placed in a hat and one name will be drawn at random. Plz include contact info for the the person you are suggesting.

    Deadline is midnight EST November 15, with the lucky name to be announced November 16.

    E-mail your entries to:
    snarkyarchies@gmail.com
    and
    janeySA79@gmail.com

    Hello everyone! my first chance today to sit and have a little computer time!

    Thanks BECKY For the thread!
    Can you please get me the recipe for grilled Romaine? The last time I tried grilling lettuce, the smoke was to thick to re-find my wilted leaves!! lol

    Gail C. another big Thank you for the gorgeous pictures you’ve shared with us over the last week!! The top picture is wonderful; the way David stand out in front of the gold and red hues from the curtain makes the pic seem 3D !!

    Boy do I feel dumb tonight. In my “busyness” of raising 4 kids, I somehow did not read “The Alchemist” by Paulo Coelho. I got through all of the Harry Potter series (x2) among others, but I didn’t read “The Alchemist.” I guess it’s been written in 67 different languages!!!! It is the next book I’ll read! :)
    I wonder what his connection to David is? It says in Wiki that he used to be a songwriter and that he likes pop. He’s also written many novels . He also has >178,000 followers on twitter so when he tweeted that he was now following David, David’s name reached a LOT of people!!! :)

  40. David From Texas says:

    hi team!

    http://www.dosomething.org/celebsgonegood/vote#

    he wasn’t on the list at first but now he is. the top 20 will be featured on VH1 as part of the celebs gone good show. so come on, it’s free promotion for david. let’s do this!!

  41. David From Texas says:

    Hello Suttygal! I haven’t read The Alchemist either.

  42. Russ says:

    Hi Pecan, I saw you in AC but didn’t ge a chance to talk to you. It was great to see you there anyway.

    DFT, It was 70 something today but could be 20 something in a few days. Yes, bring warm clothing.

  43. Patty (SLC VIP) says:

    Hi David how are you doing today?

  44. JeffR. (AC WAS FANTASTIC!) says:

    Hi Sutty, you have a point there, Paulo’s twitter reaching all his followers too. And having the busyness of raising 4 kids, I’d say you’re excused if you missed reading something. ;-)

  45. David From Texas says:

    Works for me, Russ! :D
    Hi Patty! Doing great! Worked on school papers all day and finally have a little “me” fun time. Whew! How are you?

  46. suttygal/joanieMN says:

    HI DavidFT! Is that book ever a required reading in school?? I wonder~

    Hi JeffR! How are you?? You’re kind to excuse me. Sometimes I feel really behind on life *sigh* oh well, I do try hard to keep up on all of my David duties though! :)

  47. David From Texas says:

    Suttygal: Has not been required for me. Maybe in some disciplines and classes. Thanks for doing David duties.

  48. Russ says:

    Hi Sutty. I cannot believe you have not read The Alchemist. Me either!

  49. JeffR. (AC WAS FANTASTIC!) says:

    I stuffed myself at my folks tonight for my brothers birthday. Think I’ll go digest on the couch a while. Goodnight folks, have a great day tomorrow ;-)

  50. Patty (SLC VIP) says:

    DavidFT good to hear that you doing great. I just send you a email did you get it?

  51. JeffR. (AC WAS FANTASTIC!) says:

    Sutty, it’s not easy, I don’t have 4 kids and it’s hard for me to keep up! G’night, “see” ya soon. ;-)

  52. Russ says:

    Good night Jeff

    I have to get a few things done before bedtime. Goodnight everyone. Have a great night.

  53. David From Texas says:

    JeffR: Happy Birthday to your brother! Goodnight! Have a great day and week!
    Patty: Just got your email. Let me send you back an email.

  54. JoyF ( VIPs for SLC!!! ) says:

    Hi everyone. :D

    Feeling a little better. Whatever I had was short-lived but left me very drained like my body put up a good fight.

    I’m trying to decide what to do about packing for SLC. I have a nice outfit that needs to be taken to the dry cleaners. If I do that here… it’ll be wrinkled by the time I get to SLC. If I do it there, it may not get done in time. I think I’m going to have to pay that dang $15.00 charge for a suitcase because of the outfit. Sure don’t want to cram it in a tiny carry on. And I still need to buy a pair of shoes.

    As you can tell, I’m tired and really have nuthin’ to say. :lol:

  55. David From Texas says:

    Goodnight Russ! Have a great night and week!
    Patty: Just sent you an email!
    Hello JoyF! Glad you are feeling better! Take care of yourself and hope you heal completely quickly!

  56. Patty (SLC VIP) says:

    Hi JoyF I am glad that filling much better. :)

  57. Patty (SLC VIP) says:

    David get you email thanks for you respond will we keep in touch :)

  58. David From Texas says:

    Patty: :D Thank you for emailing me!

  59. claudiaNRR says:

    David From Texas, I voted on the dosomething.org because I would really like to see David get a mention there. It’s great that we have gotten David onto the regular list of celebrities to vote for. Way to go guys and thanks for the heads up David.
    Sutty, I am definitely reading the alchemist next too. :0

  92. MrsMaryfromNC says:

    kimk – I never cease to be amazed at just how “nice” David is! Sometimes it seems like he isn’t real! But then he goes and throws in something like “brain farts” in and shows us that he is, after all a teenager, even if he does have angel wings.

  93. MrsMaryfromNC says:

    GG – I think that “by and by” I will! :)

  94. FG says:

    LOL Mary!

    I remember when the Crush video came out and I called my friend in Canada to watch it together. She was so freaked out (in a good way) that she had to pause it and I was like “NO! C’mon! We have to keep going!” Good times, good times…..

    Good morning everyone!
    Good morning, GG, Kimk, MrsMary, FG, Kimk, Pam05, Burkey, ClaudiaNRR, LCT, and all my FOD familia!

    Have a wonderful day!!!

    FG haven’t seen Burkey yet! by the way I think it was a guys only thing but if I am not mistaken generally
    anyone can go?

    Hello David and good morning!!

  101. GGdoorsfan (Bound for Baltimore!) says:

    92/ yep mrs. mary – he’s probably the most typical ”atypical” teenager we’re aware of… the david we’ve seen is on video, vlogs, meet and greets, read about in articles is but a small part of the sum total of his personality on display… i’m sure if we were around him 24/7 we’d see just perhaps how much the typical normal teenager, in ”atypical” circumstances, he really is… i love these little glimpses he gives us into himself, and the way he lets them slowly seep out in his tweets, vlogs, and other communications w/the fans… he knows or seems to know just how much to reveal, and what to keep to himself – watch him grow up and transition from a teenager into a young man this past 18 months has been a remarkable journey – and we ain’t done yet, hahaha :)

  102. GGdoorsfan (Bound for Baltimore!) says:

    97/ good morning david from texas!

    98/ have a good day mrs. mary – will see you later :)

    SLC VIP tix for someone special

    Snarkies is gifting a VIP tix to the first show in SLC on 11/24. We need your help in finding that person. They must have their own transportation to SLC, provide their own lodging and be at least 18 or able to make arrangements with someone attending the VIP to chaperone them.

    We would really love this VIP to go to someone who loves David, who supports David, and is inspired by David. Someone who has maybe never met him before, or has only said ‘hey’ in passing. Someone who without a VIP gift, they would not be able to meet David, or maybe not even attend the concert. If you know someone who fits these categories, let us know! Shoot us an e-mail! Tell us a little bit about the person you are nominating. Why do they deserve it? What makes their love for David so big?

    All eligible names will be placed in a hat and one name will be drawn at random. Plz include contact info for the the person you are suggesting.

    Deadline is midnight EST November 15, with the lucky name to be announced November 16.

    E-mail your entries to:
    snarkyarchies@gmail.com
    and
    janeySA79@gmail.com

  141. David From Texas (prayers for Pastel and her family) says:

    Awesome Joy4Archie!

  142. pamtimmie4david (and up's the only way that I know how to fall) says:

    Doing great DFT – I emailed our local radio station last week to ask when then were going to start playing Christmas music this year. Just happened to mention CFTH, about how fabulous It was and I hoped I’d be hearing it a lot on their station. The PM said he had he had listened to David’s “song” and thought it was really good. No direct word on whether or not they will play it. And I don’t know what he meant by “song”! Only one song on the CD or did he mean the whole CD? IDK! But I put a bug in his ear, at least!

  143. kimk says:

    Valerie what??? do you know what song??? wooot!!!!!!

    FG :( feel better soon!!!

  144. David From Texas (prayers for Pastel and her family) says:

    Sounds super, PT4D! Woot Woot! Hope they do play it! Maybe Melodies Of Christmas? Great work, PT4D!

  145. David From Texas (prayers for Pastel and her family) says:

    Radio Disney has added Christmas songs to the list. Just trying to see if David’s has been added and which songs. Once we know this, we can request!

  146. David From Texas (prayers for Pastel and her family) says:

    Let me check Yes.com

  156. David From Texas (prayers for Pastel and her family) says:

    Hello everyone! The first Christmas From The Heart concert is almost here! As you all know, the first two concerts will be in Salt Lake City, Utah!!! In less than three weeks, I will be attending these two concerts and would love to meet all those who will be attending! I have talked to many of you who would love to have a little gathering/reunion! I am not aware of any plans that have been made.

    In order to have a gathering/reunion, we need to get started right away. First things first, we need to know how many are interested in attending. If you would like to attend, please email me at foddavidg@gmail.com so we can have a head count.

    Please let me know which Salt Lake City concerts you will be attending and what day and time is best for you to attend the gathering/reunion. We will be trying our best to make this happen.

    As of now, JoyF, Lettie, Tina, LizardJ, and I are on the list to help out. We will need everyone’s help! If you can help or have any ideas, please let me/us know! I am very excited to be attending these concerts and to meet you all!

    Looking forward to hearing from you! Thanks!

    Went over to Disney Radio and couldn’t find CFTH songs but requested JTTW!
    let us know if you guys see it there!

  159. Valerie says:

    Sorry, guys, I’m getting ready for work and kind of rushed through that post. If you go to the Sales & Airplay Chart thread on IDF, Rodze posted it this morning. I don’t know how to read charts, but it looks like they played each song once on 11/8? Maybe it’s not an actual add yet? IDK…sorry to leave you hanging, but I have to run to work. Bye!

  160. David From Texas (prayers for Pastel and her family) says:

    GG: Chaaaaaarrrrrgggggeeee!!!! :lol: I am on it! Will request at school!

  162. GGdoorsfan (Bound for Baltimore!) says:

    159/ hi kimk – thanks! they’re new, haven’t been added to the regular list, so we have to request them like this [see post 149] for now :D

  163. GGdoorsfan (Bound for Baltimore!) says:

    160/ hi valerie – nope, not an add – just ”test” spins :D opens up the door for us to make requests… hoping to see them add them before too long, but you know how slow disney can be with that, hahaha :D

  164. David From Texas (prayers for Pastel and her family) says:

    Have to start saying my bye’s! I must leave in about 5 minutes! ((((hugs))))) everyone! Have yourselves an awesome day and week! You all are awesome!

  165. GGdoorsfan (Bound for Baltimore!) says:

    165/ a gazillion of these ((((hugs))))) backatcha david from texas!

    hope your day goes well… and request those 3 christmas songs as much as you can on disney! :D

  169. GGdoorsfan (Bound for Baltimore!) says:

    167/ [hugs] please feel better soon funnygirl… the same goes for your precious little boy…. :)

    168/ hi kimk…. one station in charlotte [kiss 104.7] has started playing all christmas music – i’m going to begin requesting there today… once per day! :) have any stations in your area begun the all christmas rotations?

  170. kimk says:

    GG hey I am listening to WRAL mix 101.5 right now and they have HD2 station that play Christmas right now but can’t
    request yet.
    http://www.wralfm.com/
    just going t play it and see what I can hear!!

  171. GGdoorsfan (Bound for Baltimore!) says:

    168/ soundscene, as usual, brings up a very good point about the goal in our requesting songs from the christmas album, when our local stations begin switching over their formats to christmas programming… wait until you begin hearing the switch before making requests, as not to annoy them :)

    =====================================================

    ”The idea really isn’t to get David a Christmas “hit,” but to get his songs out there
    so people buy the album. Groban released multiple tracks to radio in 2007. None of
    them really became Christmas hits, but they still all got played.”
    =====================================================

  172. GGdoorsfan (Bound for Baltimore!) says:

    171/ cool beans… you can either text, twitter or call them as well – just to inquire if they have received the album in full, or when/if they will begin playing xmas music… just an inquiry… :)
