I thought the kid who was a farmer was cute....I am glad they pushed him through. Simon liked him and the others were iffy.

The guy who came last cracked me up!

OMGosh...I had to turn the channel when Ryan was interviewing him... I just COULD NOT look at that bag'o'nails one second longer, it was actually making me physically sick, lol. I couldn't even watch his audition. Wow...

OMG, I loved the farmer guy, Drew. I thought he sounded very similar to Clint Black. He was adorable too. :)

I actually kind of liked the fingernail guy. He had an interesting personality. Not too sure on his talent, but the personality was cool.

The one I thought was a little weird was the guy who came and sung Kelly Clarkson Never Again. He looked sort of goth but he carried the picture of his kids, I think his name was Kyle.\

He called it guyliner instead of eyeliner....which I thought was funny.

Guhlia Rising Star

Yeah, he was definitely eccentric. He seemed like a nice kid though.

He was weird, i dont think i would want him as my kids counselor lol. But im sure it was just the act he was trying to protray cause i dont think if was really that odd in real life people would trust him.

i wondered what that they gut collected, i just seen him sing and they say why did u collect this, but never heard what he collected, i guess whatever floats ur boat lol

the stalker guy was scary but hilarious..."IF YOU WERE AN ERASER....I'D CHALK YOU" LOL

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

The stalker was odd....if you were a bathtub I would Caulk you....

His eyes really scared me.

Even if it was staged which I think it was, I could see him being a little off in real life...

confused Community Regular

When do we start back up, is it tommorow or tonight.

I didn't fully catch the TV ad I saw yesterday, but the only thing I heard was Tuesday. It seems to me that they usually have Idol on two nights, even for auditions, but I"m not sure, lol.

Guhlia Rising Star

Tuesday and Wednesday according to the american idol website.

yeah tuesdays and wednesdays until they get to the top 12

julie!! i can't believe u don't watch the auditions!!! they're the best part!!! (plus the finale, duh) :D :D

my favorites are carrie, kelly, and jordyn!! it's so sad, but i think idol really is losing a little steam... i mean there were some good people last season, but it really wasn't that entertaining overall :(

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

I believe it is tomorrow night.

confused Community Regular

Thank you, i remember now it interferes with my biggest loser on tuesdays lol.

So last night that girl who thought she sounded like Mariah Carey....who was she kidding?

The guy with the big fans was a little off too....

dlp252 Apprentice

I didn't get to see any of it last night--sounds like I missed the typical stuff, lol.

Guhlia Rising Star

I really liked the last girl that performed, the one whose husband had the inked face. BTW, man was that cool! Anyway, I thought she was really talented. I really liked the little boy who had suffered from vocal paralysis too. I thought he was really sweet and could potentially make it to the top 10.

Where are all the rockers?!?!?!?!?!

blueeyedmanda Community Regular
Where are all the rockers?!?!?!?!?!

my thoughts exactly!

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Well guys what about last night?

dlp252 Apprentice

Last night was almost painful, lol. I really did like the brother and sister team though...they had some great harmony going there...I'm glad they put them both through. They probably won't make it through to the final 12, but at least they'll get a shot.

I also thought some of the people not put through had some pretty good voices...they had pitch problems, but that probably could have been worked on. The only reason I even mention that is because it didn't seem like they found that many good ones, and I wondered why they let those go, but at the end they said they found 23 people, so I guess they found some much better voices...we just didn't get to see them all. :P

Hey Everyone!!!

American Idol has a rock chick!!!

She is from Atlanta and she is a nurse but dresses punk/goth! She was singing Janis Joplin and CCR. Her name is Amanda. All 3 judges were blown away! I am hoping for another Gina performance!

Guhlia Rising Star

I LOVED HER!!! She was awesome. I wasn't much of a Gina fan and I thought this girl was way better than Gina! That second song she did was insanely awesome! The first one sounded a little contrived.

Believe it or not, I also like that annoying little homeless boy. There was something about him...

dlp252 Apprentice

Aw sheesh, I missed the rock chick, lol!!! I actually didn't watch anything except the very first guy...the one they made turn around to sing. :lol:

      Hi, @jeriM, I can attest to Celiac and eye problems being connected!  There's a higher rate of Sjogren's Syndrome in Celiac people than in those without celiac disease.  Sjogren's Syndrome causes dry eyes and can even lead to dry mouth which can alter taste and smell.  Have your doctor check for Sjogren's.  Correct low Vitamin D, which regulates the immune system.  Talk to your nutritionist about including in your diet plenty of Omega Three's. Omega Three's help keep our eyes moist and lubricated.  You know how oil floats on water, same thing with our eyes!  Fun fact:  Our eyes are derived from the same sort of tissues as our digestive tract in a developing fetus. Oh, check your thyroid function, too.  Hashimoto's thyroiditis frequently occurs with Sjogren's. Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster in celiac disease.  I also have Diabetes type two.   Discuss with your nutritionist the benefits of a low histamine diet.  A low histamine diet can help reduce inflammation and gets those inflammation markers down.  I like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet that promotes intestinal health. Best wishes!  Keep us posted on your progress!

      Ah, Scott,    Ha ha!  Thats almost a reasonable assumption given the prices during the shortage.  However, our eggs?  We always gave them away to friends and seniors we know, so no mansion here.  Now we have to buy eggs like everyone else.   The house we found, we loved so much that it made it worth it for us to give up the chickens.  A hard decision.

      Claritin is an allergy medication which can help with allergy symptoms, but may not be helpful with gluten exposure.

      I know what you mean about the high cost of drugs. I recently had to get meds for my mother from a Canadian pharmacy because only the non-generic version is available is the USA, and it is ~$550 per month here, while in Canada the generic version is only around 1/3 the cost.
