UPDATE – My sister, Dianne and I arrived at the SM Mall of Asia at around 7:00 in the evening just in time for the David Cook and David Archuleta concert. After a large cup of frozen yogurt and a couple of minutes walking, we finally arrived at the concert grounds. Although the silver section isn’t that packed with many people, the stage isn’t that visible-I believe the stage should be a little more higher.
Anyway, David Archuleta was the first to perform with the song “Touch My Hand.” David A performed around 13 songs including: “Barriers,” “A Little Not Over You,” “You Can,” “My Hands,” “Your Eyes Don’t Lie,” “To Be With You,” “Don’t Let Go,” “Waiting for Yesterday,” “Stand by Me/Beautiful Girls,” “A Thousand Miles,” “Angels,” and “Zero Gravity.” David Archuleta ended his set with “Crush,” a fireworks show followed. I just wished he sang “With You” by Chris Brown, which he sang during his American Idol stint.
During the break, there was a bit of commotion between those people in the Gold section and the Silver section. People in the Gold section were provided with chairs but those in the Silver and Bronze section don’t have chairs. While the concert is on, people in Gold section stood on their chairs which irked the people in the Silver section for they can’t see the stage. And so, people on the Silver section started shouting, “Walang Tatayo! (No one should stand)” and “Upo! (Sit down)” But this didn’t stop the people in the Gold section to stand on their chairs.
After the break and the fireworks show, David Cook sang “The World I Know.” David Cook also performed hits including, “Heroes,” “Mr. Sensitive,” “Declaration,” “Life On The Moon,” “Always be My Baby,” “Kiss on the Neck,” “Straight Ahead,” “Make Me,” “Tell Me Tonight,” “Little Lives,” “Come Back to Me,” “Light On,” and “Permanent.”
David Cook and David Archuleta sang “A Daily AntheM” for the finale number, which David Cook dedicated to his brother.
I wonder why David Cook didn’t sing “Time of My Life.”

“I actually lost my brother yesterday to a brain tumor and I couldn’t imagine being anywhere else right now,” he told the crowd.
Adam, Cook’s brother, 37 battled the disease during David’s American Idol competition and had a chance to see his brother perform live at the Idol stage while undergoing chemotherapy.
“I’m not going to lie to you. He still has a tough road ahead of him,” Adam’s longtime friend Darrick Scott had told PEOPLE. “But this trip to Los Angeles has put a whole new pep in his step.”
Idol judges expressed their condolences including Simon Cowell.
“I was incredibly saddened to hear the news,” he said in a statement to PEOPLE.
