Purple Rain,

I have read tons of reviews during and since Idol. There is only one other that riveled yours in its cleverness, and it was written by a professional. You should do this for a living.

Advice- embrace your innner fangirl and wear that shirt.

Re David Archuleta’s bending over during “Apologize” and the end of “Stand By Me”- Archies call that “hunkerdowns” and we LOVE it.

Mocking Archuleta aside, I have a gut feeling you could in the future become a Cookchuleta. It could happen.

LOL, Purple. Really great recap – thanks so much for sharing. And kathryntx, I’m dying to know if you ever got to give Cookie the necklace you made for him! If not, here’s hoping you get to at the next show. *crosses fingers*

The fact that I even watch the showÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬’let alone run an Idol blogÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬’has my friends and family rolling their eyes to the back of their heads. So, I feel your pain, Purple Rain.

Gah! I thought it was only me! Glad to hear I’m not the only one whose family & friends think I’ve lost my ever lovin’ mind. Love love love this site, MJ. Thanks for all you do.

Awwww how sweet of you to take The Kid! haha. Suuuuuuuuure you did. Oh wait there were photos. OK. Lovely review for us, thank you! I giggled. Love the “PopTart down!” ITA. Now young lady, you wear that David Cook t-shirt. You know you bought it for a reason, something deep in your subconcious told you that you NEED that David Cook t-shirt. OK yeah I have 5. That I bought before AI was even over. What of it? And today in a departmental meeting, my BOSS blurted out to everyone that I’m an “American Idol roadie.” I had to correct him and say “No, I’m a GROUPIE, not a roadie.” Sheesh. Get my title right. And I’ve only been to TWO shows. And one more to go. Well good night, Purple Fangirl Rain! Are ya wearing that t-shirt to bed? :wink_ee:

I loved your recap and also your sense of humor. I too can be a complete fangirl where David Cook is concerned. Thanks for sharing your experience in Minneapolis.

Ha! I did put the David Cook t-shirt to show my 3-year old niece and out of nowhere my sister jumps in front of me with a camera.

Busted! LOL. The fact that I even watch the show–let alone run an Idol blog–has my friends and family rolling their eyes to the back of their heads. So, I feel your pain, Purple Rain.

Great, funny recap. Thanks. Why are Jason’s clothes mismatched? For the record, I hate that blue shirt Jason wears so often, like a uniform. Heh.

Wait, what’s wrong with having and wearing a David Cook t-shirt? Seriously? If I had one I’d wear it. If you’re not going to wear yours, send it to me for Pete’s sake.

Oh, and you must have a lot more self-control than me, because I had the opportunity to ask David Cook for a picture, it would one with me, and screw the kid.

Ha! I did put the David Cook t-shirt to show my 3-year old niece and out of nowhere my sister jumps in front of me with a camera. SO now there are pictures of me in my David Cook t-shirt floating around Facebook. I think she planned the attack with the 3-year old. “Hey baby, just distract Auntie while I take incriminating photos of her for next year’s Christmas card…”

Thanks guys! I am glad you could share the humor with me.

I have a t-shirt signed by a Season 3 Idol in the bottom of a hefty bag in my attic. I suggest you do the same with your DC t-shirt so it doesnÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t haunt you like the Tell Tale heart. Or you could just wear the damn thing when youÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢re home alone. Close the blinds first!

Ha ha…I won’t tell. .
