Thanks for the Crystal ping. “;^)

Is there a place on the web where we can see/hear the performances again? I sat down to watch, and BOOM, was out like a light.

I’m in an office pool, so need to have a sense of how to vote, altho, I’m so far ahead that it doesn’t much matter.

Now that right there was FUNNY!

[Fawn]

Hi All.....I tried to watch AI last night and I was SOooo bored....the people left aren't just quality singers like Carrie or Bo or David or Chris Daughtry. The only decent singer is rasterfarian girl, but she is no idol in my opinion....

Hope next year is better...

If there is a next year...

Harry's dad was the District Atty in Orleans Parrish (New Orleans) from 1973 - 2003.

Crystal’s humble beginnings:

“Stahl gave Bowersox an old lamp a while ago. She built a microphone stand from it.”

It is really hard for me to get past the liberal, moon-bat, Bush and Palin bashing song I heard on line.

She (Crystal) wrote and performed it. I lost all respect.
I know she has a right to speak her mind but....

I also have the right to not give her a dime of my money to help her spread more propaganda.

She is just another kool-aid drinker, spreading the baloney.

Yeah, the DA and he plays piano too and possibly sings, I can’t remember if dad sings too. Anyway, I think
Casey is getting the boot because why did AI do a social networking comment and it was from CASEY? I think this year is rigged from the get go. If Casey doesn’t get sent home, the discussion changes once again.

[floriduh voter]

Casey got poor mentoring. Harry coulda shoulda told Casey to kill the vibrato and Harry shoulda sped up Blue Skies which has been covered by Willie Nelson, Michael Buble, Frank, Tony Bennett, Rod Stewart, etc. Blue Skies is not a difficult song. I tried to sing it slowly today. A song about the days hurrying by is not supposed to be done slow. Anyway, vibrato should be planted strategically or else pitch suffers and so does the melody.

Found some old tapes of me singing. When I'm done being lazy, maybe I can just record a song from a tape into my pc crummy microphone provided by Windows Media. Anyway, I'll see if anything passes muster. I was doing Greatest Love of All a long time ago. It wasn't bad but it's easier for me to sing higher now. I have no idea what's going on but I'll take it. More range so I can be like BIG MIKE.

zabbadah zabbadah doo bee doo.

Rigging: Why did they talk to Casey last night about his band back home needing him????? Why was Casey on the social network feed last night commenting on Blue Skies which Harry Connick’s arrangment destroyed last night. AI knows how to make people with talent stink, such as Casey. Casey is so Allman Brothers that it might be better if he leaves before he has their fake pop feel rub off on him. Seriesly.

American Idol has a deal with I-tunes. I don’t know if you can buy the songs and/or the videos too. It’s a capitalist free market thing that Obama hasn’t taken over yet.

I’m looking at this chick’s head and thinking “6 ball corner pocket”

LOL! I forgot about your jolly ramblings! Good one!

[sirchtruth]

OMG they are saying that is bad, but praised Aaron???? Give me a break.

My wife was screaming the same thing! Conniption fit central is what it is!

Ratings last night lowest since 2002. (singers aren’t that great IMO)

evening jonny

[floriduh voter]

ratings bust last night. link directly above. Well, this year the judges picked some really awful singers. How could they hit all those cities and find the worst people for a big tv show?
