They're saving Hicks for last I think--hopefully for a good reason :)
My aunt still lives up in that area. She off of this lake in Wauconda.
it wasn't that bad....the kid has talent....and btw i'm partial to crooners
Saving the best for last!
Y'all are gonna have to sell me on Hicks. I still don't know what people see in him, but maybe he'll grow on me as the weeks go by. My mind is open to all the guys right now; not so much the girls.
Can I get a P-U for the first guy!
I hate college basketball. Luckily FOX doesn't carry it hear--it's all on CBS.
I didn't care for it. I agree with Simon that he's more of a crooner and something in that style would have been better. If he had sane something Harry Connick Jr.-ish it would have been better.
If I have the right kid in my mind's eye, he's only 17. Has plenty of room to grow musically.
I was there the first time around also - and it kills me to admit it....buy hey, I just retired after 36 years with the Fed Gov't so there's nogetting around my age!!!! I loved the Monkees but they couldn't hold a candle to the Beatles or the Dave Clark 5! On Lordy, I'm really showing my age now!!!! Guess that's why I love Taylor so much - that salt & pepper hair!!! (But hey, the guy that does my pedicures says I look 44 - I'm not too sure what to make of the 44....I would have been happier if he'd said 39!)
Go here and listen to some of his musichttp://taylorhicks2006.com/
LOL!! PU!
Bucky needs a comb.
PING...isn't he one of your North Carolinians....???
He does, but he chose not to sing a "crooner" song. Oy.
Know Wauconda area a bit. I grew up in Chicago. Got married there. Late hubby moved us to McHenry where we raised our 3 boys. When hubby died I couldn't afford to live there anymore, so I moved to Southern Indiana where I met present hubby. I miss home.
Hicks kind of creeps me out.
Sing muchacho!
Bucky needs a bath.
I'm here!! Reading and listening and watching and trying to post! I missed last night...sob...
