We got a lot of flack for allegedly poking fun at young David for his long-winded list of acknowledgments.
Admittedly, we did find them amusing but really didnt mean any harm.
Anyway, Archie didnt take any offense.
We talked about it.
I dont take anything personally, unless its about my family, he said.
But how long are they?
Like, how many pages?
Even hes concerned about the amount of paper itll take to print the booklet!
My problem is, its either one line or, like, 300 pages, Archuleta continued.
I completely ramble, even in my interviews or just explaining things.
And I didnt want to forget anyone!
Gives you something to talk about, I guess.
Hence, the omission of JC Chasezs name.
It was, like,so last-minute, he said.
We wrote that song a few days before thefinal deadline.
Think theyll make fun of me?
Im,like, an easy target.
Id be funny to make fun of, Im so weird.
What else can we tell you?
As for Jason Castro, hes living inL.A.
for the most part and told us hes been writing, recording, andtaking lots of meetings.
All good things, Castro said.
Im getting thebusiness set up, basically.
I didnt know he was in town and just found outtonight, said Castro, but Im definitely going.
And with that, the guys were whisked away to meet Mraz and we bidthem both a fond farewell.
But as we were leaving, Archuleta yelled outone final thought: Hope you like the album!
I dont mind if you makeany little critiques, I understand the job.
So there ya have it, Archie fans.
A little liner-notes follow-up to show theres no hard feelings…right?
