Normally I’d make this a priority at the expense of my day job because most of it can usually wait.  But I have a lot to do in the next 36 hours and this season of American Idol sucks anyway.  I speed watched the show.  Here are a few quick comments without some of my normal detail.  I’ll make it up to you, my loyal readers, next week.

CRYSTAL – Backup singers were too loud.  But she was good.  Saved and safe.

ANDREW – I still like his vocals but I know I’m in a minority.  Judges Hound Dogged him and they are probably right.  Possibly bottom 3 again.

TIM – Judges must be smoking crack.  They all loved it.  “Zero to hero”?  Sucked.  Bottom 3.  I CAN Help Falling In Love.

LEE – Judges loved it.  Seriously… put down the pipe.  I want A Little Less Conversation. Jon Peter Lewis rocked this way better on AI in 2004.  YouTube it up.

AARON – Actually better that I expected, but my expectations were pretty low.  Judges were mixed.  In the end I don’t care about his Blue Suede Shoes.

SIOBHAN – Good but I didn’t love it.  Suspicious Minds want to know if it was good enough.  Probably.

MICHAEL – Started out really good but drifted off if you ask me.  Judges were falling all over themselves for saving him last week.  He wasn’t THAT good.  But he probably isn’t headed back to The Ghetto.

KATIE – One of my favorites for this week, which is surprising because I don’t usually like Katie.  I may change my tune when I watch closer this weekend.  Simon didn’t like it.  What Do You Want Me To Do?

CASEY – I didn’t really care for it, but I recognize that it was better than many of the others tonight.  Which just proves that I should have skipped the show and kept working.

Double burn this week – two contestants go home.  Poetic justice if Michael is one of them because of the save, but probably Tim and someone else.  Maybe Andrew or Aaron.

Quick shout out to my gal pal JG – I’m sorry.  Please don’t hate me.
