My thoughts about last night.
First, I couldn't get past Jacob's Pee Wee Herman look. His voice is OK but there's no way he could win.
Casey, I think that a Vegas show is much better for him. I can't imagine hearing anything that's he done so far on the radio.
Haley, although a hometown girl, I don't see her making it on the radio either.
Lauren and Scotty, I'm not a fan of country but I can see them making it.
I really liked Scotty last week when sang the Coldplay song with Casey and James. It took him out of the country and I thought that he sounded pretty good.
Lauren can pretty much sing anything.
James has always been my favorite. I think he nailed it again last night. I can't wait to see him and Steven together on stage if he makes it to the end.
Its not so much a case of quote on quote "making it". It's a case of what is in demand and popular in the world of music at that time. And what is in and popular right now in regards to music is pop and dance music, and of course country has its own set of fans. As far as rock and roll goes, its dead as a door nail.
Theres a reason why in demand pop and country acts are able to go out and tour as the headliner without the need for support from another heavyweight act to sell out concert venues. With rock and roll there are very few bands that can go out on their own and still successfully sell out a venue, so instead of going and playing smaller venues most rock groups have to co-bill with another one.
