David Cook and David Archuleta perform at Ronald McDonald House charity event!


The Davids of AI7 reunited last night, and also with Constantine Maroulis, at the Ronald McDonald House in New York for the Make A Difference charity event for children battling cancer. Taking a night off from Cook's fall tour and Archie's rehearsal or his upcoming Christmas tour, the Davids performed songs and met with the children. David Archuleta performed "Crush," "A Thousand Miles," and "Angels" while David Cook performed "Come Back To Me," "The Last Goodbye," "Hero," "Light On," and his newest single "Fade Into Me," even after saying that David A. was so good, he quits! David A. also tweeted this cute pic of him with, well who else than Ronald McDonald! LOL!

Watch these videos of Archie performing "Angels" and "Crush: and Cook performing "The Last Goodbye" and a great, acoustic version of "Hero" from the event!

Concert Review: David Cook - This Loud Morning radio tour

Just weeks before This Loud Morning was released, I was able to go see David Cook in action at a radio stop he did to promote the new album. It'd been years since I had seen him live and though I wasn't sure what to expect, I wasn't too surprised to find out that he hasn't changed a bit. Still the same sweet rocker he was during his Idol days, except now with a lot more experience and obviously excited for the release of his sophomore album.

Cook walked out cooler than ever as he sat in front of the small group of fans who were lucky enough to get tickets to this event at The Grill on the Hill golf course in Massachusetts. Intimate, yet fun as Cook performed an acoustic set against a beautiful river and the sun setting in the background. Cook sang some old favorites like "Come Back To Me" and "Light On", as well as his new single "The Last Goodbye", which has become one of my favorite songs by him, and a cover of The cars' song "Drive."




In between songs Cook would go into his famous banters, apologizing to golfers for being loud and talking about his new album. As cute as he is in between songs, once he starts hitting those notes, it's mesmerizing. Cook has a uniqueness and endearing tone to his voice like no other rocker I've heard. He can go from rough to emotional to both all in one song, and that's the greatest part about watching him live.
