Top 3 - Discussion Post
We had some members at the dress rehearsal this afternoon. makemeabeliever just called me with a report and I figured everyone would be interested!


*All three contestants did really good performing all three songs...
*David has the pimp spot!
*Doesn't change up "Dare You to Move" or "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face", switches up "Don't Wanna Miss a Thing"
*"Don't Wanna Miss A Thing" is last and is done with an orchestra.
*He looked REALLY good (he wears a v-neck black shirt during "Dare You To Move", for "Don't Wanna Miss a Thing" he dressed nicer and wore a black suit jacket...good hair day...lol)
*He told one of the little girl's that she reminded him of his niece.
*They were having a problem with a chord on his guitar at the end of second song, because it was still plugged in and they were trying to move his equipment and he stood there for like twenty minutes while they tried to figure out how to move it all with his guitar still on.
*David was sitting on the stool waiting for Ryan to come out and David was spinning on the stool while he waited
*They saw Andrew and David's mom as they were leaving

More from livehead16 via inlipstickred:

Just a t-shirt for one of the songs, he looked fucking hot, he sounded fucking amazing, and he is the sweetest human being on the planet, he told one little girl she reminded him of his niece, he kept hugging Archie, they played MJ for the recap and he applauded at the screen. He and Seacrest are "a fucking riot together."

"your face" - totally straight as far as she knew, it sounded amazing
DYTM - guitar and she was distracted by his hotness in the T-shirt
IDWMAT - string section down on stage with him - "he fucking rocked it" (other friend this is his "this is my now" moment)

	This is the point at which I wish I lived in the US, East Coast preferably. "Don't Wanna Miss A Thing" is last and is done with an orchestra. Sounds promising. I'm slightly more at ease after reading these reports :) (Reply to this)

	Truthfully, I had hoped that the judges would have chosen an upbeat song for Archie, because like Simon said it's pretty predictable. Also is it just me or does it seem like Archie is about to cry everytime he sings? (Reply to this) (Thread)
