I watched the AI tryouts last night for the first time in...forever. I blame it on the computer virus. I forgot how much I like watching the tryouts because you get to see the real, raw talent of people auditioning. My favs were all of your favs. Pants on the Ground guy was hilarious! The dude that wouldn't listen to the judge's comments and kept trying to sing over them really annoyed me. I hope he watches himself on television and eats a slice of humble pie. Guitar Girl was cute! If she hadn't had such a good voice or personality, those judges would have eaten her alive.

There must be some sort of process to eliminate a large mass of people. I can't imagine the judges would sit and listen to every. single. person. who came to audition, right? Or do they?

AGT is awesome because of the diversity of talents, I think. AI is still my fave of the two, though.

No. Dude has a duck. I was talking about what Mary J. Blige said. She was getting her duck on when that guy was getting all huffy.

Part of me wants to encourage everyone of them to follow their dreams. Another part of me wants them to follow those dreams far far far away from my ears. I may not have great musical ears but I know what hurts them!

Yanno, something tells me I knew that but I didn't remember that I knew that and the news that the finger-giving rocker chick died has made me quite sad.

Oh, no...no...no! Those folks have to make it through several sets of 'judges' before the judges we know and love and love to hate. Still, even after the filtering, that's a LOT to listen to.

That's what I figured, but thanks for confirming for me Gemme!

They must also take a handful of the oddest ducks and worst singers and send them up for ratings.
