American Idol 5/23, This Is It!

Thanks. Not embarressed.

Hee. Al sure looks good for a dead white guy!

I wondered why Paris had to announce “Al Jarreau!” like nobody knew who he was. Then I realized I’m the one who is out of touch. Not knowing the lead singer of Live when I saw him.

Bucky sounds really good.

Has anyone gone to one of those AI shows? The tour, I mean, not the TV show.

Not I. But, watching the guys, I was thinking I’d like to. I’m really enjoying this.

I want to see some more Pickler Fear Factor. They should make her eat testicles next.

The guys’ medley was great! Way to bring the suck first and lower our expectations. :smiley:

I liked the Winner’s harmonica solo during the medley.

Yes he does! I have loved his voice from the beginning… he looked pretty damned hot in that black leather jacket, too…

I’ve been wondering this too. I am buying tickets tomorrow since they are coming to my hometown, but I do wonder if they are any good. What they do, how long, how they divid up the 10 singers, etc.

Here you go, Biggirl.

My husband says Elliot looks like a satyr. I agree. A cute satyr.

Quite enjoy Daughtry and Live. Meat Loaf fancies himself as an opera singer now and takes himself way too seriously now.

Re the all male medly (“Don’t Stop”)

Bucky has a great voice and I miss his personality.

Boy, is Ace a handsome dude.

Elliott is just darling.

The closests to me is in the Continental Arena. I don’t drive. Not the easiest thing to get to.

Dang! I live in New York City. You’d think they’d show up here.

I hate it when they put Rhonetta on there. It is so low. It’s not funny at all.

Doesn’t Al Jols…I mean Jarreau keep sounding better with each successive guest duet?

Live and Chris didn’t suck, it was just a really awkward fit for that band/song on this show, in addition to the faked up duetness of it. I thought Meatloaf was going to keel over, Mary J damn near broke Elliot’s arm, what I could hear of Toni B sounded nice, wish she’d have been a wee bit more interested in just, like, singing the damn song.

There is a word in the English language that means what I want to say here. I’m pretty sure it isn’t “closests” though.

We all knew this song would show up before it was over. I hate Shania Twain!

“In the Ghetto” is not a Shakira “Hips Don’t Lie” dance number.

At least Taylor didn’t treat the boys’ medley like Hicks and backup singers. :rolleyes:
