You're missing a couple of Carrie Underwood concerts. She's scheduled to headline at Country Thunder in Twin Lakes WI on July 16th and at Country Jam in Eau Claire WI on July 19th. Confirmation is at her fan club site. <a href="http://www.carrieunderwood.fm/tour" rel="nofollow">http://www.carrieunderwood.fm/tour</a> Thanks for the list of appearances and tour dates.

Glad to see his solo appearance listed. Maybe he still does backup too. I know he sang backup a lot with Ruben right after their AI season. I always thought Rickey left the show way too soon.

He kind of went into obscurity after the tour of season 2, other than a couple of appearances here and there. Who can ever forget the loveable, Hercules, Hercules? Or his video when he got the boot? He looked so sad, and said something about the ducks loving him. That was the first time I cried when someone was eliminated. It was a double week elimination too, where they added the votes for 2 weeks due to the Corey Clark episode. I'll bet he's thrilled too.

On such a fine day I don't know that Powell's would have been very crowded. I was wondering if they had a limo drop them off discreetly at the back door. Alot of people who hang out at Powell's aren't necessarily AI viewers and might not have recognized the lads. Plus people are absorbed in looking for books. It's a bit of a jungle with rows and rows of really high bookshelves everywhere. It is claimed to be the worlds largest new/used bookstore. The Market would have been a diff story though. That place would have been packed. I'm thinking the boys were incognito with shades and hats maybe? The mall he mentions was probably Lloyd Center mall, near the Rose Garden where they performed. It is quite a large mall and I'm really surprised they weren't mobbed there. LOTS of teen girls there. The streetcar is the MAX tram that they took to NW23rd which is a trendy older neighborhood with lots of funky shops, pubs, coffeehouses, cafes and interesting places to eat. LOTS of asian/thai food out here which might be a novelty for some of the Idols. They must have had "handlers" with them...I can't imagine them wandering about on their own.

It was supposedly one of the best auditions during the Hollywood rounds according to Nigel and Josiah Leming... <blockquote>Dave: Speaking of Hollywood week and all that, we got to see almost all of your performances. Were there any performances that you thought were really good? Either that we saw or that we didn't see? That you were like, "Wow! This person is definitely going to make it. I love this person"? Josiah: I really have a lot or respect for David Archuleta. The kid's got an amazing voice for sixteen years old. Amazing control. I think what hurts him is he doesn't really have a style of his own, yet. But he's perfect for the show. He's "The American Idol". He's very versatile. He is sixteen and he doesn't have a style, yet, and they will be able to put him what they think he'll do best. I think he definitely has the best--his voice is amazing. He did a song in the first round of Hollywood week that I don't think they had the clearance to show. A lot of people did "Crazy" by Gnarles Barkley, and I don't think they got the clearance to show any of that. But, he played the piano and sang it, and it was amazing. It gave me chills. He's the kind of singer that I can close my eyes and just listen to-- just a pure voice.</blockquote> Can't wait to hear Archie's version.

The comparison is bound to happen. But it will always be "my guy is better than your guy" for either side. So what's the big deal? First of all, really want to hear Jason singing Apologize.

I'm a big Archie fan, but I would have been happy to wait until after the tour to hear Archie's version of "Crazy." At this point I worry about the degree of hype attached to this song. I'm sure it was wonderful, but if it's what he describes (simple, slowed-down version) then part of the wonderfulness of it may have had more to do with Archie's voice than with the song itself. I just hope people aren't banking on some spectacular rearrangement if that's not what the performance was about. At any rate, I really think that the two versions (Archie's and Jason's) must be so different that they will be hard to compare. But of course that won't stop people from trying. :rolleyes_wp:
