    I LOVE Chris! I think at this point I want him to win the whole thing,,, but last Wed. I thought Gedeon did a much better job than Chris in his song selection, I just can't believe what has happened.  But every year there are people voted off when they shouldnt be.  And you know, we must remember that they are not REALLY voted off,  they just haven't connected enough to catch enough votes to stay on.  As long as you have websites out there telling people who to vote for, it will happen over and over.

    I totally agree that kevin kid REALLY needs to go.  I think his singing is horrible and he shows absolutely no personality on the stage but just standing there.  I keep telling myself how can the judges think he's good when I can hear his lisp while he sings!! I am kinda glad that they got rid of Gedeon though, after awhile his smile started to bother me as well like simon said.  I was sad to see Ayla leave but I do like all the others much better and it was a good thing they got rid of Kinnik because she completely ruined the Alicia Keys song the other night. 
     
    Sorry for being so negative I guess when you get into it the opinions start flaring LOL  [sm=evilfire.gif]

    I think Gideon got booted because of the little interview sections they do prior to each song.  There was something off about him.  He sounded a little like Forrest Gump to me. 
     
    I don't get to wound up about the order people go home. Neither Kevin nor Gideon were going to win the show.  So whether one goes home before the other doesn't really matter. 
     
    I want it to come down to Taylor Hicks and Chris Daughtry.  Watching Taylor is like watching Ray Charles perform...he seems to really feel what he is singing. 
     
    I think Chris is so talented and is going to make his label a fortune.  He has a good recording voice, and a great stage show.  You really can't go wrong with that.

    I also was upset that Kevin wasn't voted off. I think Gedeon should have lasted another week. I also think that Ayla should have been allowed to stay and the other girl(the girl who sang Heart) shouild go. I don't like her and can you believe the way Paris was dressed last night ! Thank god they have stylists in the top 12.

    Paris and Ace are slowly working their way to the bottom of my "favorites" list.   Somehow I think of them as Constantine and Fantasia,,,two people that I didn't like at all by the end of their shows.

    Ace is an okay singer but I think he's a mighty good looking guy...[:)]

    I'm bummed now to have learned that there's an actual website devoted to screwing up the show and encouraging pranksters to vote for the worst singers. What next? [sm=rolleyes.gif] Why do people get so much enjoyment out of ruining things for others? It makes me mad. [sm=angry.gif]...and sad. [sm=sad.gif]

    Oh well, my theory is that as the numbers get smaller, those who voted for people who are leaving will join in voting for other GOOD singers and the people voting for the bad singers will be outnumbered. I don't know if that makes sense but I won't let them ruin my enjoyment of the show.

    I will be watching for sure! [sm=wink2.gif]

    Dyan, do you know if the Nashville show is on cable/dish.  I don't have that so I'm hoping it's on regular channels.  Thanks.  I also reiterate the sentiment of people ruining a good thing by rigging the voting.  Hopefully enough honest people will balance out the jerks[sm=no%20no%20smiley.gif]

    [&:]I wonder if Paula will be drunk tonight?
    Has anyone notcied when she judges the girls she is sometimes critical or not overly excited about their performance. Then on Wednesday when she judges the guys she can hardly control herslf. [sm=clapping%20hands%20smiley.gif]

    Dyan - I like country too.
    I just purchased my tickets to the Country Music Fest in July at Gillette Stadium.

    My husband and I also noticed Paula's behavior.  It's starting to drive me crazy that she has nothing but great things to tell the guys.  They aren't "all" wonderful!  She needs to take a reality pill!

    Lisa, Nashville Star is on the USA network, I'm afraid its a cable network.
     
    MiniMom,,,the website that has everyone "voting for the worst" takes pride in keeping Scott Sabol on last year,,,I was really miffed and couldn't figure out how he stayed on week after week,,then I began to realize that the way things were going, HE COULD WIN!!!!   They also pride themselves in the fact that even thought Carrie Underwood won, it was only by  a small margin.  Shew!!!  I do believe that website got closed down that last week though..  
     I heard a talk radio show talking about Paula and the way she acts,,,and they said she is on pain killers.
     Dogluvr, whos going to be at the Music Fest???   We have one here in Cleveland but not until Sept, they don't even announce who will be there until July at least.
    But this Friday, I have tickets to go see one of my old favorites,,LeeRoy Parnell, do you know who he is?

    Dyan, I am a huge Toby Keith fan and all I listen to is Country Music.  I'm bummed I won't be able to watch Nashville Star.  We have about three or four Country Music Festivals in Minnesota every year the biggest is WeFest and it is huge with a great line up every year!  I don't go usually, because it always fell on horse show weekends and when you are running for points you don't dare miss.  Maybe this year since I'll be showing dogs and there is a lot of shows I can miss some.
