San Antonio Texas is the last stop on the 07 audition tour. Thats a good thing, because i dont think i could handle much more of this.
11,000 people are set to impress the judges, lets see how they do.
Our first singer claims that he sounds like billy idol, ac/dc, etc, and he can even do the reverse worm. hes entered a mock american idol competition and won. does that translate to actual idol success? no. randy and paula enjoy the scream along but simon isnt even enjoying it ironically. all he says when rejected is 'allright'.
we're off and runnin. allright.
haley has a cool, extremely low cut in back black dress, but her rendition of bonnie raitts i cant make you love me just wasnt up to the american idol challenge. wha?! the other judges follow simons lead and give her another chance. we will see sexyback in hollywood. whateves.
jasmine doesnt really captivate an audience, and when she starts singing she only commands laughter. she then tries to take a shot at randy as shes leaving, she should be happy because they were unusually easy on her. he aint even american! she exclaims about sir simon cowell (note: simon cowell has not yet been knighted)
a sweet lil bumpkin from a small texas town, bailey is 16 and has a nice voice. sings faith hill and is thoroughly inoffensive. she'll definitely go far, but she's gonna hafta do something crazy to win me over.
another 'other door' medley follows, and if these people cant operate the door to out of the audition room, i bet they wouldve been great auditions for us to see.
william greens cousins mom took him when he was 14. the amazing grace performance was simply brutal. not so much funny, but more sad. youd expect akron, the cousin who showed up with william would be equally terrible, but he can really sing. he goes for sam cooke. he aint pretty, we can all agree upon that, but he gets a second chance to wow the judges after simon says he was bored, and he does marvin gaye. well done akron, we'll see more of him in hollywood. that was fun to watch.
whenever someone puts their hand to their ear as they start singing, it usually a prety bad sign. have you ever heard a frog vomit? that kinda what she sounded like. simon thought it some unintelligable foriegn laungage. turns out shes a music teacher. paula reminds her that teaching is a noble profession, and to stick with that particular career.
our next contestant got beat up in high school in becuase she had a good voice. those jealous little punks couldnt beat it out of her though, shes got a good voice but its sounds strange and randy and paula shoot her down. simon wouldve said yes and easily convinces the judges to give her another try after she graciously left the room. shes a doll, and with any vocal coaching at all i bet shes sound fantastic.
jake the snake! his grandma was some kind of unspecified entertainer, and he wants to carry on her unspecified legacy. not gonna happen.
another saturday night->cupid, another two songs from mr cooke. 'youre like a little fun ruben' what a big voice. great. unanimously through without hesitation.
it looks like tomorrow night is an all 'outrageously outrageous audition' night. i might actually use the fast forward button yo.
