Tonight marks Kris Allen’s final date as an opening act for the Barenaked Ladies. Angel Taylor is again also on the bill. The concert starts at 7:30 p.m. Eastern, with Kris & KAB scheduled to hit the stage around 8 p.m.

Kris did a private in-studio acoustic set for Q104 in Cleveland this afternoon. No video was allowed to be taken at this appearance. His set consisted of MITM, AWM, TT  and LLWD. It was at this appearance that Kris revealed that the music video for The Truth should be released on Monday.

    Thanks girlygirl for yet another concert thread.

    So pleased to hear that the MV will be out on Monday & that his other Autumn gigs will be announced soon!!

    Hope the tweets are as positive as they were at the last BL concert!

  • tripp_ncwy

    frannglass Angel Taylor on stage. So far I like her.

    frannglass wish she had some stage presence though.

  • JoCeeisme

    Cant wait to see the MV, it will be awesome (fingers crossed)and hope a few more people are converted to Kris at this latest show.
    Boo to those anti-Kris people tweeting that radio guy, it’s time they all got over it, wonder what they were saying or what happened to make them tweet mean things, did the dj say Kris was good, lol.

  • ilovekrisallen39

    JoCeeisme i don’t know why he tweeted that,i wish it would just all end already.i love both kris and Adam and wish the feud of some of both of there fans would end.Can’t wait for the mv on Monday so excited.

  • FaithfulFan

    Yay for the good news!! Music video on Monday!!! Can’t wait to see how the lyrics were interpreted for the video. Also excited that we’ll soon be getting info on the fall tour. Wonder who he will be opening for????

    ETA Just saw the cindyvela tweet. Hopefully the mv is being released on monday and not just an announcement of the release date.

  • Truthiness

    TT video released Monday? Finally! So excited. Yay!!!

    I hope it’s good. I’m so happy it’s going to be out soon. Ya know VH1 is going to play it a lot. I have faith my in Idol voting fans, that plus it’s like number 20 on the HAC charts, seems to equal a good amount of airplay. Of course I won’t be one of the fans voting for it. I don’t vote for those things, can’t be bothered, but I have faith in the rest of the fanbase.

  • chris4kris

    So excited about the video on Monday!!! (Hey, ilovekrisallen39, I think Monday Aug. 16th is the date I guessed last week…!)
    And I can’t wait for info on the fall tour, so I can plan going to another show.

    Thanks girlygirl, and mtlfan and tripp_ncwy for all these concert threads! And thanks to all of you who post all the tweets, and keep us all posted on Kris news everyday. I certainly appreciate all the work you guys do…

  • ilovekrisallen39

    ManuelSpeech At the barenaked ladies concert… Having a blast. Kris Allen was great!

  • Destry

    YAY FOR THE VIDEO ON MONDAY!!!!

    I’m hoping that when Kris falls backward off the piano, he floats away over the desert zero-gravity-Joseph-Gordon-Levitt style (and then he kills Pat Monaghan in a spinning hallway and says “shoulda stayed out of my single bitch!”)

    But seriously, the promo stills remind me of those surreal bed-on-a-beach images from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, so I’m super psyched!

  • ilovekrisallen39

    I just put AWM from last night up in it’s thread.

  • Sv

    I have a suspicion that fans misunderstood Kris about the video. He might have said something in line of what Cindy Vela tweeted, and they misinterpreted it. We’ll see, I guess.

  • Giavonna

    ’m hoping that when Kris falls backward off the piano, he floats away over the desert zero-gravity-Joseph-Gordon-Levitt style (and then he kills Pat Monaghan in a spinning hallway and says “shoulda stayed out of my single bitch!”)

    OMGia LMAO! Out of lurkage to LAUGH OUT LOUD! That is really funny Destry!

  • ilovekrisallen39

    SV the person tht tweeted that said Liz said it was going to be out also on monday.But I guess well find out then unless someone else confirm’s it before then.

  • girlygirl

    Sv

    Except that Lizzie (Kris’s assistant) reportedly also said it would be released Monday. So we will see. That would be 21 days from the end of the shoot, which is a fairly standard turnaround tiem for videos, so it would make sense

  • Mtlfan

    thanks girlygirl for the new thread!

    So we’ll get the TT mv in 5 days! woohoo!!

    destry, that was pretty funny!

  • ilovekrisallen39

    beckysackett just saw @krisallen for the 3rd in 5 days! hes amazing! i could seriously watch him all day long!

  • ilovekrisallen39

    PeaceLoveShine6 Seriously @KrisAllen is so amazingly talented, he just put on another incredible show! :)

  • ilovekrisallen39

    beckysackett @krisallen THANK YOU for the incredible shows in Cleveland today!!! you are the most talented person ever! :)

  • Giavonna

    IIO, yes today is over – I see KA in 18 days………who’s counting?

  • ilovekrisallen39

    PeaceLoveShine6 @KrisAllen thank you for another amazing performance! You have so much talent!!

  • Destry

    That is really funny Destry!

    Originally when I heard that TT was gonna be shot in the desert with the possiblity of an elephant cameo, I imagined it as a more sentimental version of Your Love Is My Drug. But the sheer awesomeness of the MV stills changed my mind (thankfully).

    As for my weirdly unexpected Joseph Gordon-Levitt obsession, I’m not sure what happened: I walked into Inception excited to watch Leo and walked out afterward totally hooked on the other guy (shrugs)

    The thread was 8/04/10 KA radio event in Scranton, PA

  • ilovekrisallen39

    Thanks ratna12,yeah chris4kris won that one so cool.

    So since Kris said he helped with the editing of the MV, will he get editing credit? Just a random thought.

    I like this pretty picture from today’s radio gig:

    http://q104.radio.com/2010/08/11/kris-allen-in-the-coffeeshop/#photo-11

    Sounds like tonight’s show went off without a hitch (except for a “rhythm fail on LLWD breakdown”? Wonder what happened?). Very happy to have a target date for the mv–yay! Best news of the day!

  • tripp_ncwy

    Kris’ local newspaper printed the story on the Hall of Fame honor. The govenor will give out a special award to one of the new inductees.

    “Governor Mike Beebe will choose one of the inductees as the recipient of the Governor’s Award.”

    I think those pictures are the property of the radio station. You might want to check with MJ, but I think they are copyrighted and thus wouldn’t be allowed to be used in any of our threads…

    mamacitabaja: Agreed. Those pictures were great especially 39 of 40.

    But, I hope that nobody missed the radio Q&A Mix 106.5.
    I had to rewind the video because I couldn’t hear a word he said. Just kept staring, especially the first 30 seconds.

    Why is Monday so far away! Can’t wait!

    I cannot wait to see the music video (except I have zero interest in Pat being in it – I will ignore him).

  • TwigLA

    That’s a sweet tweet from Angel Taylor. I like that girl and find her extremely talented.

    I missed this radio interview with Ralphie in Scranton (just saw in on my twitter feed) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73ntt-2tJ54

    Kris really seemed to connect with this guy and he asked good questions. A new answer for me was that Kris met Steven Tyler when sitting next to him at a concert.

    I’m thrilled that we will probably be seeing The Truth MV on Monday. I need a pick me up like that!

  • hoosiermama

    Thanks for posting that radio interview, TwigLA. Kris says the trip overseas to see the troops is “tentative” and not a definite thing. I know the situation is fluid over there and it could be deemed too dangerous, but I hope they still get to go as it would mean so much to the troops and to KAB. I hope TPTB figure out a way to make it happen.

  • Mtlfan

    I missed this radio interview with Ralphie in Scranton (just saw in on my twitter feed) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73ntt-2tJ54

    thanks for the interview. What was the ‘Smoking Gun’ thing? I’m not understanding what is said.

  • girlygirl

    The Smoking Gun is a website that posts stories about celebrities and politicians, often either about criminal records or — in the case with Kris — about contracts/salaries. They posted an article a little while back showing how much various musicians supposedly made per appearance

  • girlygirl

    Aww, this is a fantastic story

    Awe thanks so much for posting that link girlgirl,is it any wonder why we love Kris so much?And I remember that tweet.

  • girlygirl

    Looks like Kris’s news about the TT music video being released Monday is correct. It has been added on VH1! \o/ \o/ \o/

    http://www.fmqb.com/article.asp?id=16025

  • jasmine

    Oh, those pictures………!!!

  • linsmile

    Aww, yes, thanks for the story, girlygirl. And also the link to the pic from yesterday where he’s giving the little girl (another little girl) the pick – soooo cute.

    More stories about how he cares to connect with individuals rather than just experiencing fame as adoration from the masses.

    I too, am glad he’s finished with the BNL dates. Looking forward to the MV!

    Tonight is supporting for Train at the Wisconsin State Fair. I just looked that up. So maybe another duet with Pat. Should be interesting.

    ETA: So I think tomorrow night Kris is supposed to be with Keith in Des Moines IA at the Iowa State Fair. I just read that there is flooding in that area and that hundreads of people were evacuated from a Des Moines neighborhood. Looks like it’s a very serious sitaution for those living in the area.

  • jasmine

    http://www.fmqb.com/article.asp?id=16025

    Good to see VH1 jumping on board quickly. They have been chomping at the bit to get a new video from Kris.

  • Elliegrll

    VH1 has the video listed as “On”, which means at the most they might play it once a day, and probably overnight.

  • tripp_ncwy

    KrisAllen
    Cleveland rocks! Special thanks to @barenakedladies for lettin hang with you guys for a month.

  • LaRue

    All good things have to start somewhere. If VH1 has TT video on tap, then I’m taking that as a good sign. I look forward to seeing it.

  • Giavonna

    VH1 has the video listed as “On”, which means at the most they might play it once a day, and probably overnight.

    Oh let’s not be so negative Elliegrll. Think positive. Nobody’s even seen it yet. If it is a smokin’ hot as I imagine it will be, it should get some traction. I mean Kris is visually stunning and the song is good (even w/P.M.)

  • girlygirl

    Given the voting history of AI fans, TT music video will end up on VH1′s Top 20 Countdown sooner ratehr than later. And if it gets a good response, VH1 will move it into a heavier rotation pretty quickly (see Adam’s video rotation, for instance)

  • hoosiermama

    hglightly53–where are your seats for Saturday? I’d love to say hello before the concert!

    cookcricket–waiting to hear where you’re sitting, too?!

  • Ratna12

    Aww, yes, thanks for the story, girlygirl. And also the link to the pic from yesterday where he’s giving the little girl (another little girl) the pick – soooo cute.

    Oh, I saw the picture last night and I did not know what Kris was giving the little girl.
    I can just imagine from Kris point of view, seeing this little girl looking up to him with her hand streched.
    Love the picture.

    Thanks girlygirl and also for the link to the other little girl story.

  • brbi1000

    I thought the girl picked up the bottle cap and was handing it back to Kris. When I first saw the picture, I just went, “awwww.” Very cute. Same with the other girl story. Just another confirmation on how an awesome guy Kris is.

  • linsmile

    brbi1000 – Well you may be right about the bottle cap. That definitly could be. When I saw the still, I thought I was seeing a pick, but you could most definitly be right. Cute picture either way. :)

    ETA: To clarify, I was referencing the picture of the little girl that girlygirl posted above from Q104. I can’t find video of Kris’ time there – did I miss it?

  • Mtlfan

    hahahahaha it sounds promising for tonight ;)
