Two Davids prove to be concert stage Goliaths


MANILA, Philippines – The two Davids – American Idols Cook and Archuleta – proved to be Goliaths on stage on Saturday. Their one-night-only concert not only brought the jampacked house down but it also brought traffic to a crawl around the Mall of Asia in Pasay – before and after the show. Fans of American Idol 2008 winner Cook and runner-up Archuleta came from all over the Philippines just to watch them. GMA TV host Janno Gibbs, himself a singer and composer, summed up the much-awaited event this way: "Ang galing, sobrang galing. Parehong magaling [Great. Really great. They were both great]." And just as upbeat as everyone was concert producer and promoter Jomari Yllana, who stayed mostly in the background through the whole visit of the two idols. "I'm very, very thankful and very happy," he said, in post-gig interview aired on Sunday over GMA's "Showbiz Central." - GMANews.TV
