She, DC and Jason were my early faves in S7 -- even when I wasn't interested in necessarily having a horse in the race -- mainly because the 3 of them (at least in the early stages) just consistently gave enjoyable performance after enjoyable performance week in and week out. Hope the indie thing works out for her and we get to hear her on the radio someday. So happy about Brooke.

So far, 20 dates have been announced. I went through a lot to get them for you. The logical first stop was what appears to be his official website, which, I found out, you have to be approved to even view. My "membership" is pending approval. Seeing that graphic pop up on the screen was a moment of reckoning, like when I realized that Facebook announced to my friends that "Mandi listened to David Archuleta's 'Crush.'" (It didn't show up right away in my the feed, so I thought I got away with it. I went to bed, and had to delete it the next morning. You just know someone programmed that delay on purpose.) I wonder if Archie's lost any casual fans because they visited the website, and just couldn't bring themselves to leave a trail. Anyone? Why must "Crush" be so darn catchy, and make us so happy that the boy no one thought could be a contemporary artist found a way? Tour dates after the jump, courtesy of his MySpace page. Who's going?

SUPER news for Brooke! I'm really excited to hear her new music. I'd love to see her live, too. Hope she comes out with a record and tours to support it soon.
