Wow…look at those first season auditions. Look at Simon’s hair!

Lloyd Thomas – Charles Grigsby sang this song! Aww…I miss Charles. He was so cute. This guy is pretty good. Not as good as Charles of course. And not nearly as cute. But very good.

Kimberly Carver – Aw, she was good until she pulled out the Carly-esque screeching. Hmm…they’re trying to create a Neil/Simon fight like the Kara/Katy fight from last night. I think she seems pretty nice. So I’ll give her a second chance.

Erica Rhodes – Yuck. There was nothing good about that. That was one of the worst things I have ever seen.

Dave Pittman – Another Arkansas boy. He’s certainly not Kris. I’m not sure. He has a nice voice, maybe it was just a bad song for me. I like him, I’ll give him another chance.

14 made it through on Day 1.

Sadly, Neil couldn’t stay for Day 2 (he wasn’t kicked out like Avril Lavigne was). Which means we’re stuck with a stupid Jonas brother. Joe I guess. Bleh.

Todrick Hall – He was in The Color Purple with Fantasia. Which I was initially unimpressed by because Fantasia is among the worst Idol winners. But this guy was good. I was a big fan. Cool song too. His voice was a teensy bit shaky, but it’s tough to not be shaky when you’re auditioning a cappella for the country’s biggest TV show.

Dawntoya Thomason – Meh. Boring.

Stephanie Daulong – Umm…how did she get through? That few seconds was absolutely awful. Maybe worse than Erica.

Maegan Wright – Kris sang this song. Better. I wasn’t a fan. Although it did make me want to start listening to last year’s stuff.

Hahahahaha! Ryan’s stupid thing about how hard Simon has it was in fact stupid, but I enjoyed the fact that when referring to finding someone “special”, they only showed 5 of the 8 winners. Kris and Carrie of course. And Jordin, David, and Kelly. Stupid Ruben, Fantasia, and Taylor. Nobody likes you.

Christian Spear – What is she wearing? Jonas boy looks like he wants her. I didn’t really like her. She was kinda boring.

A total of 31 made it through from Dallas. I liked Lloyd and Todrick. I kinda liked Dave.

Next week, we move to Denver (where apparently Posh Spice returns). Last week of auditions! Hooray!

Until then…
