American Idol Concert Tour Review

Well. Well. It's good that I gave myself a few days to calm down before blogging about the tour or it would have basically been a whole lot of unreadable jibberish that looked a little like this - "OMGhgkjk679ADAMLAMBERtgahhh679q9ue8w5789&%*"

Or something to that effect. (Affect? Effect...)

Anyways. The tour was GREAT. I may have even enjoyed it more than last year, because unfortunately David Cook was disappointing. However, no one this year was disappointing (that I cared about.) Adam was FANTASTIC - the energy in the room when he came out was electrifying (good word). Everyone was just so stoked to see him. Seeing him live was different than anyone else I've ever seen live because he was just so...good. Like, inhuman. ELECTRIFYING, if you will.

Allison, Matt, Kris and Scott were all also very good, and there was nobody bad. Megan was the most disappointing, just because she didn't really connect with the audience at all.

The group song was amazing, mainly because RENEE LOVES JOURNEY. That one song, to be more specific (Don't Stop Believin')

And then AFTERWARDS - oh boy. We got to see them and get SO CLOSE TO THEM IT WAS...electrifying. I touched Kris Allen's palm (not creepily, we high fived) and I squished my hand against Matt Giraud's chest (again, not creepily, I was shoved forward by some weirdo behind me - what kind of thirty year old male freaks out when they see Allison Iraheta? Pedophile. He totally pushed some little kids into the barricades. I feared for my life. Tangent.)

Then Adam Lambert stole my book. I was holding it out for him to sing because people held stuff out and then they got signed but I guess no one else was holding anything as weird as "The Sun Also Rises" because his rep misconstrued my gesture and thought I was giving it to him as a gift. She was like "Thanks, he'll love it" and then she took it. I didn't say anything, because I have to say, the thought of Adam Lambert reading my book - or more specifically Gab's book - makes me a little tingly.

So that was basically my American Idol experience, omitting the part where we got lost afterwards, wandered around downtown Vancouver for an hour and had to take a kabuki cab back to our hotel.

A Post to Make Gab Feel Bad

Gab should feel ashamed of herself for three reasons.

1) She marred our blog with propaganda about Kris Allen and now it looks like we have no taste, when is reality only half of us have no taste

2) She hasn't updated in eleven years and Renee is sitting at home with nothing to do all ready to post her number eight movie but NO Gab is off gallivanting somewhere and can't be bothered to update

3) She punched me in the face (and our readers will never be able to prove if that's true or not!)

Do you feel dead inside now Gab?

I'd Like To Take A Moment...

To draw your attention to the little survey question to the right.

KRISFTW.

That is all.

PEACE, GAB

AI/SYTYCD Post

Unlike Renee, I am jumping for joy! I am so happy for Kris and can't wait to buy his CD.

In other news, SYTYCD starts tomorrow, and in commemoration of this, a video.

Peace, Gab

american idol finale; fingers too sad for caps lock

oh no. my heart. it is bleeding.

i ask you this. from the bottom of my bleeding heart.

renee out.

Bonus Jonas mention!

KRADAM FTW

I am SO glad that Danny has finally left. It's not that I hated him; it's just that I liked everyone else better. Also, he claims to own 27 pairs of glasses, but honestly, they apparently all look the same. I mean, I'm pretty sure that he has 14 black half frames, and 13 black full frames.
I am just so so so happy right now. Kris totally deserves to be the top two. He really is talented. Also, I downloaded a few songs that he wrote himself and they are really good. He's a really talented songwriter, and I have faith that the CD he will inevitably release will be very good. I, for one, will be buying it.
Also, I'd just like to briefly mention how a) good and b) gutsy his performance of Heartless was last night. I mean, to go on stage with no music, only you're guitar, on AI is rare, and he did such an amazing job. That performance ties, but is slightly above, Tracks of my Tears. Bravo.

(I couldn't find the actual video; it's been taken down)

Peace, Gab

David Cook and his good taste

David's favourites are Adam and Kris! Good boy! I knew I loved him for a reason.

Renee Out.

OMG KRIS IS FINE

I CAN'T BELIEVE HE MADE IT TO THE FINAL THREE.

Although, my excitement comes with mixed emotions since I absolutely love Allison's voice. She'll go far in life, I'm sure.

But KRIS was so so so happy and it was so nice. I'll definitely buy the CD that he'll inevitably release. 

I'm excited for the finale!

Peace, Gab

Renee Responds Promptly

Haha, that's the best quote ever, where did you find that?

I don't even really care who gets voted out tonight. Although they were better than I gave them credit for last night. Turns out I WAS in a mood. Fancy that!

I'll respond more soon, I'm in Comp. CIv. right now though, shhh.

Also - what is GTFO? And what is Y/Y?

Riffraff Post

Less is more, Renee, less is more. Plus, the quality of my posts is like a thousand times better than yours. 

I have basically given up on AP Calculus. I mean, I don't think I am going to learn anything more tonight. 

This is going to be a mish-mash post.

1) Kris is the sexiest thing ever to sing the AI stage. Furthermore, he did a respectable job tonight. Unlike *cough* Danny. Danny deserves to go home for his performance. But, here is how it's going to play out: Danny fans are going to vote extra for him to ensure he is in the final three after such an awful night. Adam will obviously be in the top, leaving Allison and Kris. For the past couple of weeks, it has been a toss up as to which would be in the top 3, but it's looking like it will almost certainly be Allison. She just has a better voice. As attractive as Kris is, his looks will only get him to top 4. My ideal final 3 would be Allison, Kris, and Adam, though.

GTFO Danny!

2) Renee, my favourite animal post obviously counts! I mean, what about your eyes closed post? It doesn't even make sense!

3) Renee, we seriously need to take some photos together. Y/Y?

4) Gael is SO attractive. Even in the crack video. 

5) Hilarious quotation by Kris Allen (ignore grammatical inaccuracies): "Sharing a bathroom with Adam is well... We're very different. He's got a lot of stuff, and I don't. But the bathroom is plenty big enough where he can fit all of his stuff. So it works." Later, Adam: "It's great! He's got like three items on the counter and I have fourty-five."

Peace, Gab

6) Danny Hokey is the most boring person, ever.

RENEE WINS

So. I just spent like WAY TOO LONG going back and counting all the posts to prove to Gab that I have, in fact, posted more times than her. Here was the final result:

Renee: 131 posts

Gab: 90 posts

And p.s. gab, some of your lame posts shouldn't even count. Like the one where you list your favourite animals? cough*slacker*cough. Plus, you cantradict yourself in an earlier entry when you say that sea kittens are your favourite animal.

EDIT to American Idol post: the more I watch Allison's solo the more I like it. She was better the second and third time. She'd better not be eliminated. And Danny and Kris's duet gets better with more viewings too. You know which one doesn't get better with more viewings? Adam's craptastic horrorshow.

American Idol Recap: Top 4

Oh yikes. Oh my. Oh my yikes.

Not good. Not good at all.

Maybe I'm just in a mood or something but tonight made me really depressed. Everything felt unfamiliar and dark and too loud and I hated it all. It made me miss my David. As much as I love Adam, he'll never come close to my boy Cook.

Everyone was bad tonight. Like BAD BAD. Allison was the best, she wasn't that bad actually. She was so unbad, in fact, that I'll forgive her for all her physical contact with Adam:) She's a good singer, and I was glad she talked back to Simon. But one good singer and two pretty good duets were NOT ENOUGH.

Adam - I hated his performance. I'm not ashamed - I hated it. He let me down. He made stupid embarassing facial expressions at the guitarist and I didn't believe him at all. He was so phony. And the song had no tune. AND HIS PANTS IN THE DUET. Oh my G. They weren't even hot. They were just...nope.

And BTW wth was Slash doing there? He's pretty much the greasiest mentor they could have possibly picked. Oh well, at least he sings. OH WAIT, he doesn't.

And then there was Danny. Oh, Danny, Danny, Danny. Just no. You can't hit those notes. Didn't anyone ever tell you that?

Kris. meh. It was too hard for him, poor guy. It just wasn't his week; we knew that it wouldn't be.

SO DISAPPOINTING.

Renee Out Disappointed.

Who gave Paula a thesaurus?

Quick review, because I need to post four more entries (apparently I'm slacking). Well, maybe your mom's slacking.

Anoop: sucked, as always. And then he showed his true asshole colours by being a little bitch to the judges. Hopefully now America will start to hate him as much as I do.

Scott: boring, like always.

Danny: good.

Allison: not so good, but they didn't need to be so mean about her outfit. Did ALL of the judges have to mention it?

Adam: SEXY. Not as good as last week, but that guy could just go sit there and do nothing and the crowd would eat him up.

Kris: my favourite tonight. He did a good job.

Megan: i though it was okay. Too bad she went home. Cawing ftw, though!

Lil Rounds: they didn't give her enough credit. SHe was really good, and her kids are freaking adorable! "Randy, you're ready to be a Grandpa!" Thanks Ryan! Someone needs to let him know that he's not really young and hip like he thinks.

So yeah, wasn't as good as last week but it was okay. I'm lovin me some Adam.
