Danny just finished singing at the church. He sounds like he might losing his voice a bit. He actually made a comment about being hoarse.

Heh... this makes me happy.

Wow, if you go to the link for Kris Allen's homecoming (I posted it above) you can see a video they've posted of the crowd that's waiting for him at an upcoming event in Conway. It's pretty impressive.

Thanks for all the updates today Kenny.

I am not crazy about the song chosen for Kris, but he might be able to do something with it.

Danny dead wife is being pimped hardcore today. Ugh.

I've heard "Sophia's Heart Foundation" at least fifteen times on this live stream.

Oh lord listening to the news people at the Gokey commenting about the camera people coming out of the car and stuff. LOL

Part of me is till thinking about going online to get a ticket to the Cubs/Brewers game tonight because I only live about an hour away and know I could get a single ticket. Over half of that stadium will be full of people coming up there from Chicago who probably could care a less that an American Idol is singing at the game.

Tracking all this stuff is bringing back memories of doing the BB live feed updates, LoL. Too much stuff going on at once, I don't even know what to post...

The guys are all over the place with lots of big crowds. There's so much media stuff, I can't keep up!

Pretty impressive crowd Kris has there. I was just looking are some of the links posted with the homecoming information. The hometown visits are good and it is nice they do them. Although some of the ones from Milwaukee just make me chuckle. Not so much because of Danny, but just the way the news is covering it all. You can buy Gokey t-shirts on the Milwaukee Fox station website.

Thanks for posting about the homecomings, Kenny. Glad Adam's crowd grew and that Kris's crowd was impressive. Can't wait until we get more. Not surprised that Danny's wife is being mentioned alot. I will watch the videos and look at the pics a little more in depth later. Hard to do it at work so I'm just skimming, basically LOL. I think I'm getting the gist of everything though so far.

So, we have Katy Perry next week too along with Jordin Sparks and all the homecoming stuff. I guess this means like last year the top 3 will not sing on results night. Before last year, each part of the top 3 would sing a song on results night. I guess they prefer guest performances and just letting it be about the person who leaves now, which is understandable I guess.

Paula's choice for Danny I would not consider sabotage. Her choices usually always suck. Either that or she basically makes safe choices for the contestants. Cubsgirl makes a point that Danny does sound a little like the singer. He will probably do what he normally does and get by with it.

I LOVE Kris's choice for reasons already mentioned. Sure, the song it's recorded form is more for someone like Archuleta (who sang it well last year on the finale) but Kris usually always changes up the song in some way and, with a guitar, I think it can be great. I would not advise piano as that would be too close to the original. My concern though is that the song was so overplayed in the past year or so and we had Archie sing it on the finale results night last year and we've heard the judges mention a few times to Matt this year that he should've went with it as a choice. My point is that it may come off a little too...expected. Sometimes alot of the appeal of a performance comes from something completely surprising. However, I do think this can be good for Kris and I'm shocked that the judges actually gave him something that he could do something with. He may have dodged a bullet since they only sing two songs and the second is of his own choice.

Maybe this will be a little more fair and balanced then we thought. I have some hope now looking at the crowd for Kris and the song choice by the judges. He will still need all the votes he can get though. I'm wondering if Idol will do what they did to Syesha last year and show more of her by herself and driving around then showing the crowds coming out for her and all the stuff they showed with the Davids. That is what I'm expecting. Maybe they just don't want to make it obvious so they give Kris a decent song choice and maybe their hope is that if Kris does well, his fans won;t vote as much and Danny's fans will cote more thinking he is in trouble. Maybe that is their thinking. I just can't help but feel they will screw Kris over somehow...they just may do it less blatantly because they know people are on to them on the heels of last year and what has happened this year.

I wonder what the deal is with the judges. The blurb about Danny seemed to imply that Paula chose the song for Danny but the blurb about Kris made it sound like all the judges chose his song. Maybe Paula was just the one to send the text message to Danny. I just can't see them leaving a judge out of the selection process so my assumption was that the judges would work together on choices for everyone.

Good for Kris, he's a cutie pie. Even though I have been a Danny fan from the beginning, I would be just as happy if Kris won. I love an underdog, especially one as cute as him :wub:

Apparently a topless chick just tried running on stage to attack Adam but his bodyguard stopped her, LoL!

Danny is taking a break right now before the parade and concert later today.

When Adam gets to the military base, it won't be open to the fans. I think he's just greeting the troops. Also, has hasn't done Sea World yet, so that's coming later.

Still no word on what song the judges have chosen for Adam to sing next week. They'll probably send him the text when he's on the military base and no fans are around to report the song choice, LoL.
