David Archuleta: Guest-Starring on Hannah Montana!

While getting ready for his concert tonight, David Archuleta updated his official site for all his fans.

The 18-year-old American Idol alum writes, “I’m reporting from Virginia, where we have our first 2 tour shows! Really exciting stuff. I’m really nervous! Ah! But I can’t wait at the same time! We’ve been practicing and practicing and practicing. It’s so weird to go on my very own tour, it doesn’t feel real!

“All last week has basically been me and the new band getting ready for tour. They’re all really fun to work with and really talented. It’s fun just hanging out with them and we have a good time rehearsing, even though it’s a lot of work. When we rehearse, it’s basically just running through all the songs all day long. We try to tweak them, and see what we can add to it to make it more fun. It’ll be fun to just get out there and sing, and I think you guys will have fun listening to the new songs from the album! I’m excited to perform them.”

“Some of the songs are really high though, and I have no idea how I hit them… But I manage to lol. When I recorded some of the songs, like ‘Running’, ‘Barriers’, ‘Crush’, ‘A Little Too Not Over You.’ I was thinking… ‘How the heck I was going to be able to sing them?!?’ But I always managed to somehow. And the more you push yourself, (But not in a way you hurt your voice. It’s more like you go for things you were afraid of doing and sing with confidence!) you become more comfortable. And the more you practice those scary songs, you find a comfortable place to sing them that you never knew about before. But yeah there’s my little thought for the day I wanted to share I guess.

“Another thing that happened over the last week is I went to LA to film my guest appearance on Hannah Montana. It was another thing I was really nervous about and wasn’t really sure about at first. However, once I got there I had a great time! Everyone there was fun and Miley [Cyrus] was a cool person to hang out with. She has a lot of energy and is really funny. Getting to watch how they rehearsed the scenes for the show was really cool too. It’s always interesting to see the behind-the-scenes things. I’ve never really watched the show before, but it was sooo funny watching the other scenes!

“I think it’ll be fun to see how the whole show runs altogether, because it was just cool to see how great of actors the other kids were. Anyhow, I better get to rehearsing for the big day tomorrow! I’ll talk to you guys later! Ah! I’m pretty pumped for tomorrow! Let me know if you’re going to the Virginia Beach or Richmond shows ok? You can let me know if you’re going to one of the other shows this week too. Peace!”
