David Cook introduced his video for “Light On” on today’s MTV Total Request Live. Watch the video, after the jump.

Tonight, he performs at the David Wright benefit, Do The Wright Thing Gala, at the Hard Rock Cafe in New York City. I’m sure he’ll be debuting some new songs from the upcoming album. I want reports people!

Friday night, David is back in LA to perform on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno.

On November 23rd, David performs two songs on the red carpet during the American Music Awards pre-show in Los Angeles.

And, of course, David’s new album drops next Tuesday, 11/18.

You can listen to a sneak peek of David’s album starting tonight. Check David’s official site around midnight for the link.

Video after the JUMP…

    Some of the teenagers in the background look like those in the infamous video!
    Why did they start in the middle of the LO video? Nevermind, I guess they wanted to cut back to DC.

    Awesome! Dave looks really happy. As always, he’s really gracious and respectful with regards to this whole Idol Album thing.

    Woohoo, Nov the 18th , here we come! David Cook’s Album is awesome! :thumbup_tb:

    I always look forward to seeing DC do an interview. This one was no exception. :D

    Thanks mj :)

  • ptslittlecomment

    Yes thanks MJ! I am always happy to hear or see DC! I look forward to the CD streaming tonight!

  • Lisa

    I can’t wait until midnight since we can hear the whole album!! Have my kleenex ready.

    So great to see David on MTV. Great to see him getting out and about. Miss seeing and hearing that outstanding big & beautiful voice of his.

    Should we place bets on whether we crash DCO again or not? LOL

  • CathyMK

    David finished his set at the Wright Gala a few minutes ago. He sang Heroes, Life on the Moon, Light On, Lie, Bar-Ba-Sol, Mr. Sensitive, and Declaration. He talked a lot between songs too. The audience screamed like crazy- sounded like the tour cellcasts! I’m loving the idea of everybody all dressed up and screaming their faces off!

  • Jabkmc

    Random – He and Archie have on the same sneakers at TRL. LOL!

  • Lisa

    Jabkmc, think they are Skechers? :laugh_tb:

  • Jabkmc

    Lisa – duh… haha!

    They had better have that fixed. For real. Gonna be my go-to-sleep music.

  • smartcookie

    They look like the standard issue rock star Converse All-Stars (also known as Chuck Taylors), and not Skechers. I’m willing to bet that DC wore a heck of a lot of All-Stars before AI. It’s like black t-shirts and things hanging from belt loops and leather cuff bracelets.

    ^Thanks for the pics!
    David’s expression with the Harlem Globetrotters is priceless! haha :D

  • elisad

    Awww, every guy in the 2 pics is cute LOL.

    I’m reading this recap, lovely. Didn’t hear the cellert since I was sleeping…please let there be some videos!

  • FolkFan

    DC got to hire Timmy as his guitar tech! Aww, that’s wonderful.

  • Han

    I have the entire concert recorded! Only audio – no video. Now I just need to figure out how to post it somewhere….

    It was insane!

  • Trina

    AHHHHHHHH I just got back from the gala. AMAZING. I’m pretty tired but I’ll try and do a write-up tonight. This was another adorable Davidx2!

  • http://myspace.com/girlgeek mj

    I’ll post write ups on the front page if you send them to my email address at mjsbigblog at gmail dot com…

  • cheese

    Getty has a few gazillion pics up already:

    Do The Wright Thing Gala

  • cookcricket

    Oh it would be so awesome if someone had vids from the David Wright Gala. My sister has MS and I didn’t realize this was to raise money for this-even more awesome!!!!

    I can’t wait to hear the audio if no vid though.

    To think, we can hear the album tonight!!!! I have to get up early, but my hubby laid down on the couch and said, I guess you’ll be waking me up about 2:00 to go to bed, right? This is insane! I don’t care!!!!

    I actually heard LO on the radio for the first time today!!!! WooHoo!!!! I had it up and was singing along and shouting WooHoo, the whole time. It’s amazing how this song has grown on me!!!!!

  • smartcookie

    Rickey is streaming video from the Wright Thing Gala here:

    http://www.blogtv.com/people/KidFlash

    Right now he’s venting about some kind of behind-the-scenes (at rickey.org) angst and drama, but I saw Lie, Life on the Moon and Light On, and they were awesome. (The video is a little herky jerky, but come one, to be able to see the gala? Priceless.) Although not much is happening at the moment, I think Bar-Ba-Sol is supposed to be next and then he’s going to stream the whole thing again. I think I heard him say that.

    Okay, so right when I decide to link, it goes off-course and never comes back to the streaming vid. Sorry!

  • cookcricket

    Oh yeah, and the TRL was swwweeeeeet!!!!! Yeh, he’ purty.;)

  • http://myspace.com/pm68 Pam
  • Han

    Ok finally loaded all the audio…

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hxwl8mCG6_Y

    I apologize for not having video! I wanted to enjoy the moment rather than holding up a camera! I do have all the banter though.

    My favorite was Bar-ba-sol! He was totally on tonight!

  • http://myspace.com/girlgeek mj

    Thank you Han. You rock. :)

  • DivaE

    of Cookie’s upcoming performance on the Rockefeller Tree lighting, TMZ is reporting that the Britney is in negotiations to perform at it too… PLEASE NO! Well, it might be a mixed blessing- like his SNL stint, where he was seen by many non-AI followers, I suppose being on a show with the Britney might let him be seen by more people (don’t know why anyone would want to watch the Britney tho…)
