I would also like to thank you for the joy and laughter this thread has brought me! The show would not be as fun without it. What a great group of people and the absolute funniest comments. Thanks for all your work keeping it up, and the great ping posts! Until next year!

Thank you SO much for what you’ve done, Johnny...year after year this wonderful thread, filled with such wit, wisdom, humor, fun, joy, and yes...some sadness at friends who are ill, and suffering, and others who don’t get the camaraderie here and try to disrupt it.

God bless you, Johnny, and everyone else whose posts I’ve so enjoyed reading...’til next year!

Sincerely,

Ed

Me too!!!

It was good seeing David C being gracious to David A that what a professional does.

I do not know if what Randy and Simon said was intentional or not. But I do believe it caused a backlash reaction and energize the voters.

What I am wondering now is what are all the Showbiz pundits that proclaimed Idol was dead are gonna say now that 97-million,500-thousand votes were cast? The "All You Can Eat Crow Bar" is going to open for awhile for alot of them lol.

I would like to see where the votes came from for the the Davids. My hunch is Missouri, specifically KC, broke for Cook and out-gunned...what town was Archie from???

The first hour wasn’t that great. The best part of the show was David Cook playing with and singing lead with ZZ Top. It was great. The second hour was a lot better than the first imo.

guess I’ve been too busy the last 30 years, have no idea who Bryan Adams is Canadian rocker w/ good tunes.

Well, I've always liked BA and my band plays, "The Only Thing That Looks Good On Me Is You." About a month ago we debuted it, and I mean everybody in the whole place got to the dance floor on that one! I do an acoustic version of "Cuts Like A Knife" and everybody loves it, and I can't sing worth a tinker's damn! I just happened to sound a "little" like him when I attempt yodalizing.

I think for the most part everyone has a geniune like for BA and his music.

I’ll bet this is a thrill for David C. to be playing with ZZtop.

It might be but I'm telling you the sound mix absolutely sux!!!! Hi-hats are way too forward in the mix, back off sound guy!!! Frank beard looked as though he was a puppet on a string. I know these guys have played these songs a million times, but you have to give a little bit of effort. You need to pound out Sharped Dressed Man, everyone looked and played like they were trying not to mess it up. Geez!!!

I think David was in shock he was jammin with ZZT! LOL!

Amanda is lost with the dancing.

Yeah, that's not her strong-suit.

Unfortunately for her, neither was singing. :)

My DVR didn’t get the last 6 minutes, so I missed the end.

Do you know if I can see it anywhere online?

We were talking about that last night. Mine cut off 1 second after Ryan said "Cook". Fortunately we set it to tape the local news after it so we had the whole thing but it was dang close. Imagine if it had been 2 seconds earlier and you only heard Ryan say "David..."

I like that song. JD Fortune winner of Rock Star INXS did a really great version of that song. I wanted Marty Casey to win but in the end JD was a better Michael Hutchence voice for the song catalog.

Agree with all of that. I love Marty's record. I grew up a huge INXS fan and Fortune was the right choice but it's just not the same...
