Keith Urban signed my leg!! hey Maaaaaaaa!!

I spit out my tea when i saw that. Sooooo funny.

A lot more talented people on display this show that last week. I enjoyed tonight's show and am looking forward to more. Hollywood Week could potentially be filled with solid singers if it continues like this.

The best audition of the night? Harry Connick's. I want my leg signed by Keith as well.

I bet the producers are high fiving each other already over the choices for the judges this season.

[DisneyBelle99]

Majesty, my first wow of the tryouts!!! hello all!

 

[mandy200587]

Oh this part will be hysterical

 

[mandy200587]

Dug Chris. I'm loving Kristen.

 

[mandy200587]

I'm liking Emily too.

 

[Nancy]

Just got home. I was at my Mom's for a while.

 

[lisaviolet]

I was so busy talking about music on another thread, I didn't even realize it was time! Crap.

Sounds like there were some good ones - reading here.

Do you we have a female rocker? I would love that. Let's see when she opens her mouth.

 

[DisneyBelle99]

That was kinda cute and funky, Jess....

 

[DarthKTrava]

There were some good ones. None that wowed me yet.

 

[DarthKTrava]

And now the wackos and the what-the-hell-were-they-thinking crowd.....

 

[lisaviolet]

That audition just shows me how incredibly talented Shelbie Z was on The Voice. She sang that song, leaps and bounds above that. I wish she would try out for American Idol, but she might have been too old.

I really like the judges this year.

 

[S. C.]

Is everyone in GA 22 yrs old?

 

[Nancy]

I just missed almost all of the show so far. First late getting home from Mom's, then DH is asking me questions, and then my youngest daughter calls. I just informed her no more phone calls on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
