This thread will contain real time SPOILERS! If you don't want to know what happens please read the thread after the show premiers in your area. All discussion related to the show should be contained in this thread so as not to ruin surprises for the different time zones.

The parties will start when the show starts at 8:00 PM Eastern time.

1: Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. You are allowed to discuss opinions in a reasonable manner but you can not attack someone if they like or dislike a particular contestant.  Please respect your fellow posters.

2: There will be no personal bashing of any contestant. You can say you don't like the contestant for their performances or because you just don't like their personality but please do not personally attack the person. No name calling will be tolerated.

3: Please do not post pictures in the thread.  Some people still have dial up and the speed of the thread is impacted with the number of pictures posted. In other words, it takes a long time for their thread to load.

4: People come back and read the thread after the show is over, we're going to try to do our best this year to note who is singing and what for each show. When referring to a contestant, if possible, please use their names so we know exactly which contestant you are referring too.

5: Remember our Claymaniac friends on the West Coast and don't post AI information in community threads. Keep discussion and spoilers here.

6: Also asking you not to post Dial Idol results. Many people don't want to know who may or may not be voted off until the show airs.

It will be very interesting to see what each of the contestants selects.  'Sort of an insight into their personalities.

Danny Gokey missed part of this past week due to the death of his grandfather. Danny returned to Wisconsin for several days to attend the funeral.

I'm sure it will be mentioned during the show this evening.

Almost time for American Idol!!  Hope everyone is ready!!!!  I think this is the first time since AI 2 that I have been this excited about watching it.  My one wish is that Danny lose the glasses and spiffs up his looks a little.  I see him all the time without his glasses in different shots but for some reason when he preforms he has the glasses on.  Someone needs to help him!!!!!!!!!!

The contestants could choose any song they wanted, as long as it was a popular download on iTunes.

That seems to make it a "fair" song choice for every contestant . . . no matter what type of song they prefer!

Anoop Desai - Caught Up - Usher


Randy - you picked up your swagger; vocally it was cool but not necessarily the right song for you, Usher is a dancer

Kara - when you pick Usher you got to go up in your range and do riffs and you played it safe and did what he did; I get the feeling a bunch of frat guys dared you to sing Usher

Paula - I wasn't sure at first but I like that you went back to the playful side; you've shown us beautiful vocals as a balladeer; your vocals sounded good I'd say work on your presentation skills

Simon - complete and utter mess; really didn't like that you came over as a wannabe; no originality; collegeboy trying to be a star; gave me a headache

Oh-ohh, Anoop's going first. They must want him out. Paranoid

Simon hates when the singer touches hands with the audience or Paula. Of course he hated this. Roll eyes

 wave   Hey Michelle, Thea, Barb and anyone else who might be here

Boy, with the theme tonight just about anything goes.

I didn't particularly like that song by Anoop.  Better be careful with that tone of voice also.
