Now I wouldn't call him a pretty boy. That's just going too far! :)

[silent_jonny]

Done!

[silent_jonny]

So that's basically it. I may have the order or the words mixed up a little. Someone else will probably remember better.

I think that's a very accurate summary. Good job :)

[EmilyGeiger]

My problem with Constantine is that he seems to be phoney. He play acts at being a rocker. Every movement is contrived. Is it just me? Or does anyone else think this?

[texasflower]

Thank you. I was sure hoping I had it right.

[texasflower]

I don't care for Constantine. Every time he tries go give that "sultry" look into camera and does that head tilt thing, he just looks dirty.

Like actually needing a good delousing and a good scrubbing.

So yeah, he does seem sort of fake.

[I'm ALL Right!]

Placement, baby. Jessaca was first to sing, so voters forgot her by the end.

[I'm ALL Right!]

Constantine is a Bono-wannabe. His rendition of "you make me so very happy" didn't really make me so very happy. Ugh. He's not a real honest-to-God rocker, like Bo. Bo can kick it. Just keepin' it real, dawg. (Sorry. Watch too much of Randy, and it just starts to seep in.)

[bigsigh]

off, thanx, I'll visit, but no ping.

Hey Ken,

We're almost the same age.

1965 - Graduated James Monroe HS in the Bronx.

My Daughter-in-law graduated NYU.....valedictorian of her class. She's a physical therapist.

[Collier]

The Righteous Bros. were the best.

Hubby & I saw them live in 1965.

Doc Sevrenson was also featured.

Our table was right up front near the stage. You could almost touch them.

Bobby Hatfield was a cutie.

[texasflower]

LOL! You do sound just like Randy!

So, are you saying you just weren't "feeling it" Monday night?

[retrokitten]

I agree with you. He acts like he is going a Jim Morrison/Eddie Vedder impression. He acts like a rock star should act, does that make sense? We all have this idea of what a rock star should do and he does those things and it comes off as contrived.

[retrokitten]

The results would be much different if you could vote people off, instead of voting to stay.

Yes! She would have been voted off right away. The big group song last night reminded me of the old Sesame Street thing, "One of these kids is doing his own thing...one of these kids is not like the others..." She stood out in a bad way. Her shirt summed it up- a world of her own.

[Samwise]

"One of these kids is doing his own thing...one of these kids is not like the others..." She stood out in a bad way.

LOL. You nailed it.

Just realized who Mikala remined me of..Eddie Munster's big sister..

[ken5050]

Is anyone watching Nashville Star..I've been taping it...watching it later..it's really good..they can sign..and there are great live acts at the beginning of each show, and maybe LeAnn will sing sometime....Any interest in doing a weekly thread?

[EmilyGeiger]

I've watched it once but did not make a note as to what night it is on. I agree, everyone on that show are VERY good. Not a bad one the night we watched. What night is it on and what channel was it? It wasn't CMT was it?

[ken5050]

It's USA..Tuesday night..10PM EST, and repeated later on for the west coast..really good..first show, a girl got sick...had to throw up after 10 seconds on stage..yet they voted her through.....she's good..my fave is the cop who does a great Buddy Holly...

[EmilyGeiger]

I thought he was really good too! BUt of course I really like Buddy Holly's music.
