Catching Up on Kris Allen Out Alive Tour Media

Ahhh and now we have a break! After so many wonderful Kris Allen Out Alive Tour shows, now it's time to catch up on all that great media - pictures, videos and what not!

To help you out, and to help guide new fans Kris made, I thought I'd share where I like to go to find Kris stuff and fun:

Kris Allen Media (no twitter) - This is the place to find the BEST mp3s, plus a recap of every show with video and picture links. You will need an account with Live Journal (you can use your Twitter or Facebook account) in order to access the mp3s.

By the way, other smart Twitter accounts to follow if you enjoy Kris live mp3s: @dawnmyst, @summerdaze_ and @p_eleph

Kris Allen Setlists (no twitter) - This is a page I keep up - it's meant to be an archive for every show of what Kris sang. In the past year, I've started adding links to the best YouTube channels with videos of a show.

Little Pawns (@LittlePawns) - This is Kris' official street team and is a great resource for his calendar of events! (Better than his Facebook page, to be honest.) Plus it is worth signing up with them just for the weekly emailed "Pawncast" - a great way to recap the past week of Kris and see what's ahead for the next week. Also be sure to follow the Twitter account of the regional street team that covers where you live:
@RedPawns: CA, OR, WA
@BluePawns: TX, and all mountain time zone states
@GreenPawns: The midwest from the Dakotas through Arkansas
@YellowPawns: Indiana, Michigan, Ohio and the south
@PurplePawns: The mid-atlantic and northeast
@GrayPawns: All other countries

The Dirty Minds (@TheDirtyMinds) - This is the "official unofficial group of super fans" and many of our great list tweets came from their membership! Obviously, they specialize in the hotness that is Kris. This March, they are doing a fun thing called the #30DaysofKrisAllen and will tweet a different topic each day - post your response and that hashtag to participate!

Fourteen Plums (@FourteenPlums) - This is a great blog with all kinds of Kris media - not updated as quickly, which means they have time to add the stuff that pops up later! (Believe it or not, not every Kris fan uploads a video as soon as they get home from the show! coughAspencough) And they are great on Twitter for spreading the word of all things Kris.

Kris Allen Addicts (@KAAddicts) - Another great blog/fansite for Kris that also keeps you updated on his news and media!

As for me for this small break - I'm going to work on the video playlists I keep on KAL's YouTube Channel to update them for this past tour leg. Rather than wait for me, I suggest you check out @snapcracklypop's playlist of all the covers Kris did!

Some Exciting News & a Few Notes on the Lists

Starting with the next list (tomorrow!), we're going to (hopefully) embed our twitter lists here! My hope is that this will be a fun way for Kris fans to gather and comment while a show is ongoing. Also, sometimes I am just busy with real life, and so this gives me a way to put the list out there when I can't tweet the link from my Twitter account.

A few notes:

• Lists will only be active for about 24 hours before a show and for a few days afterwards (to be able to see pictures, videos, etc.)
• Have fun but please be respectful of everyone on the list!
• If you are on a list and don't want to be, just send a tweet to @KrisAllenLists & we'll take you off.
• On the other hand, I can't search 24/7, so if I missed adding someone, feel free to tweet that to me too! It's easiest to add them if you just tell me their twitter name, but a status link is ok too.
• Everyone who helps with the lists is greatly, greatly appreciated!

Welcome to the Kris Allen Lists Blog!

Welcome to the new Kris Allen Lists blog! If all goes according to plan, this will be a handy place to host the Twitter lists for Kris' events and watch them together. 

Not sure what Kris Allen Lists is? We're on Twitter @KrisAllenLists. Basically we do Twitter lists for all of Kris Allen's events. It's a fun way for fans to follow what he is doing, and to bring the fandom together. And since he just announced a bunch of tour dates, this is a perfect time to get this blog set up! (Kris' next show as of this posting is September 23, so that will be our first gathering for a list here!)

You'll also notice some handy links to my favorite Kris fan sites on the right, and the Kralendar is embedded below for your use! (Pro tips: Click on the "Google Calendar" link on the bottom to add the Kralendar to your calendars. And click on Agenda to get a nice list of upcoming shows!)

Let me know if you have any suggestions or feedback for the blog! Thanks!
