WOW! Michael Johns goes home? I sort of agree with the audience booing after that one. While his performance of "Dream On" was forgettable as no one can do that song like Steven Tyler from Aerosmith I am not sure it was a valid enough reason to send him home. My fear is that "votefortheworst" has picked up another contestant like they did last year and are keeping them around while getting rid of the ones that are good enough to stay (a la Sanjaya last year). Stuff like that frustrates me, but since it is an America votes competition nothing can be done. I don't think Michael was strong enough to win the competition, but he wasn't that bad either.
On the flip side, Idol gives back was good again this year. The performances didn't wow me necessarily (and I was not impressed in the least bit at the leather-or rubber-pants that Fergie wore during her performance of Barracuda with Heart), but it is good to be reminded again that there are those in and out of the country that need help. So I guess as much as possible whether through Idol or your church do SOMETHING to make a difference in the world. Give some money if you can or give of your time to make a difference.
Well that's it for the week, thoughts?

I really wanted Michael Johns to be in the top 5. I don't think he would have made it further than that, but I really enjoy him. I was so sad to see him go. He is much more skilled at performing than some of the others. This season is not nearly as predictable as some have been in the past.
Hey Matt! Angie and I think we're on our way to a David/David finale. You never know though ...
We enjoyed Idol Gives Back as well - especially Carrie Underwood's song and the Daughtry video/song.
