Jules he would probably love the Cruisin' Grand we have in a city 12 miles from us...every friday from late spring until the end of summer guys converge on the city with their classic cars! It is so cool! I don't know much about cars but we love to look!
Lisa...aw come on...which David?....as tech says...The COOKSTER!...it's always been GAGULETA around our house!
Oh and gals...those dreads gross Angie out big time!
Lisa I know what you mean about Archuleta! His Sweet Caroline Performance was horrible! The Judges thought he was good?! Whats up with that?! David cook is gonna win the whole thing! I love him!!!!!! I can't wait for next week. It's rock n roll week. Cook is gonna blow the entire show away...I just know it
Well, I still love Jason, but that was awful!! Its as if he's doing bad on purpose so he can go home. He did GREAT earlier in the season.
I was disappointed in everyone last night. Rock and Roll hall of fame night should have been WAY better than that. The best was the Cookster with the Who song. And I also liked Syesha's Tina Turner thing.
Jason was really bad last night. What was he thinking with that Bob Marley song?! I think he's too goofy and he's not taking it seriously anymore. David A again I think he was way to breathy and I thought his voice was kind of pitchy. Syesha I didn't like her either...LOL! Her first song was a bad impersonation of Tina Turner. Why did she start crying? I don't know but my opinion is maybe she wanted some extra votes so she turned on the water works...LOL! David Cook....I LOVE HIM! BUT....I didn't like his first song and his second song was OKAY not great like his past performances. I don't know what happened last night but hopefully next week is much better. I was really looking forward to hearing everyone sing especially Cook because it was Rock N Roll week. I can't wait to see what happens tonight. Hopefuly they'll get rid of Jason Castro

I pray, pray, pray Jason goes home tonite!!! I think Syesha will be next and it will come down to the 2 David's. While I truly believe David C. should win...I have a feeling David A. will be the next AI. He's young, he's cute & he's marketable. I have nothing against him but, I think David C. is much more talented. If David C. doesn't win, its not going to hurt him any. He's right up there with Chris Daughtry and who knows...we might even hear he's opening for Daughtry one of these days! America has gotten it wrong on several other occasions...lets hope they do it right this year!
Obviously Jason was a train wreck last night. In fact, he's been a mess for the last few weeks anyway. He hasn't really been good since his performances during the top 24 ("Hallelujah," for example). I do have to say, though, that I think he picked the best artists from the R&R Hall of Fame out of all the contestants' choices. The problem is that he picked such huge icons that it's tough to do them justice, and his mumbling, lyric-forgetting performances certainly didn't! I really liked him at the beginning, but he needs to be put out of his misery.
Speaking of misery, I really wish David Archuleta would go so I could be put out of MY misery. That's not going to happen, though. Honestly, I don't think he's marketable as a pop star. I think he needs to be in Disney movies like High School Musical. I can't really imagine what a CD from him would be like -- cheesy ballads sung in a breathy tone? God help us.
Syesha has been doing much better the last few weeks, but I think she's made for Broadway. She should just get that Broadway career going and not look back. I wasn't really a fan of how she compared the civil rights struggle to her own personal journey to becoming the American Idol -- ick.
David Cook was much more average this week than he has been, but I still really like him and think he's the best contestant by far. Whether he wins or not, he'll probably have a career. I'd call him the most marketable, actually. I mean, look at Chris Daughtry. They're not the same, of course, but the style is somewhat similar.
I really liked Jason. I liked the funny faces he made when he sang and I thought he had a clear, beautiful voice. But, I have been let down the last few weeks with his performances and I really think he wanted to be done with the whole thing. I'll never forget the Hallelujah song or Somewhere Over the Rainbow with the ukelele. I thought he was cool even though his performances were all starting to sound the same.
David Cook, though, is clearly more talented and shows a great deal of diversity. They can throw anything at him and he does it REALLY well (except Duran Duran...I didn't like that at ALL).
I'm bored with the Archulator and Syesha. Bring on Cookster. We haven't had a rocker WIN AI yet. Some have become famous from it, but not win it.
So, bye, Jason... I, for one, will miss you...

I was so sad to see Jason go - he has this charisma that is very charming...I don't particularly care for the dreds but he and David Cook are my fav's. I almost wonder, though, if he hasn't been wanting to go home. I mean Bob Marley is an obvious choice but "I Shot the Sherriff?" come on...I seem to remember an audition a couple of years ago where some guy came in his sherriffs uniform and sang that song - it was HORRIBLE and he was totally made fun of for weeks...Jason's poor choice of songs have to be intentional! I think Jason is ready to be done with the show. You know, if they win they are tied to the AI contract and very limited at what they can and cannot do...just sayin'.
Syesha is beautiful and I agree she is made for Broadway! She has really improved the last couple of weeks.
David A is a bore but I read somewhere recently that TV does nothing for him. Apparently he has a very pure, beautiful voice that is mesmerizing when you are there. whowoddathunkit? I don't care for him and I can't see him being a pop star - maybe another genre? He will probably win, though.
I absolutely hate to see it, because in my opionion David Cook is more talented...but a rocker has never won. Maybe it is time..?!!!
