I also wonder why they didn’t have a group sing. Or did they?

I guess I didn’t miss too much in the first 35 minutes. I did like Lady Antebellum, though.

I can’t watch Casey without waiting for the [bucket to fall on his head](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nV_0oQDiRA). (link to Carrie at the prom)

I must have caught Siobhan at all her worst moments, because her singing always gave me a headache, and the screaming got really old.

I’m out of the loop, obviously, because I really liked Crystal’s song this week. But then I’ve always liked that song.
