Kiowakat- don't stop at grafton... go for the ferry ride back across to MO and there's all kinds of antique shops and preserves stands. That used to be one of my favorite things to do was just cruise the entire way up the river road... day or night.


NDNKIDZ- His name was Brian Mooney. He did'nt go to Wood River though.. he grew up in Elsah. I met him at LCCC where we were taking our art classes together. He was the same age as me. I have a copy of his obit from online. It was quite beautiful. And I understand people from all over came in for his funeral. He had a great many friends he made out there, not just the hometown favorites.

Ok back on topic... the show tonight was excellent! And like Simon, I wanted to steal that puppy LOL!!! The plus sized model gal.. I loved her voice.. she's gonna be a contender in the top ten I predict. The Dolly Parton gal won't get into the final groupings but who knows... a country producer might snatch her up. She did have a cute voice with a nice tone to it.

Wow I cant beleive that girl with the puppy did not make it through!
She had such talent well maybe not singing wise
LOL
and did you guys notice how bowlegged she was!

I am looking forward to next weeks show

[Josiah]

Top 24

Well they are not kidding it was a brutal show
They cut some good talent but I did not see any dogs this year
NO Sanjia!!!
But my guy did not make it through (Josiah)
But I have other favorites I think I like the Aussie guy and the short Asian girl with the biggg voice

[Josiah]

Well the Guys sang tonight and there is going to be some stiff competition
Going to be hard to pick the best

I'm really liking that Danny Noriega. He's more than a touch femme, but he's got stage presence and an awesome voice! I also like the rocker dude this year and the guy with the dreads although he seems like he's on a permanent high LOL! But I love the guy's voice and his face and the way he sings. I know Randy said the guy hit that note all off key but I kinda think that's how the guy did it on purpose to more or less shake it up a bit. There's been singers before who've done that and it's ok as long as the off note is'nt one that hurts the ears. I'd like to see him get rid of the dreads though.

Well the women sang and what the hell is up with these olllllld ballads and creaky old songs
Who ever is helping them pick songs need to be fired!
But there were a few standouts
Alaina the 16 yr old from Tulsa and A'siah who I love her voice
The rocker chick Amanda
And Carly the irish chick

I wish they would not have a genre to pick from just let them sing..lol i know 60's is broad but dang...most of the these kids think 60's is 100 years old lol..most have never heard the song they picked.and i know it helps show their musical range.. but you have to like a song to be able to do it justice..

[Dat1NdnGuy]

quite frankly I was just BORED!...lol. I liked the lil asian girl wit da big voice. That rocker chick needs more range, everything she sings sounds the SAME, I couldnt even understand most o' da song she was singin.

[*Brown Eyed Gurl*]

i didnt like her either^ geez she sounded the same for every song...i dont know who i like best tho..its a blah year..or maybe just too many seasons of watching it lol

[Blackbear]

Seriously? I thought Amanda totally rocked! You just have to know that song... she nailed it! I love the asian girl with the big voice too and the blonde (not gonna turn to the darkside) gal. Actually I like most of the girls but the girl that came out first.. poor thing had to be sick because that song, was as plain jane as singing happy birthday to someone you don't care for. The worst of the night was the gal trying to sound like patsy cline.... OMG my head hurt! I had to turn her off! You know she's to be the first to go from the gals. And now we also know that Simon not only hates country music but most of the music from the sixties LOL!

I think Asiah will make it to the finals
Mark my words
Now watch she is the first to go tonight
LOL
