I stated I watched American Idol before.  That is true, because I was interested in watching people actually get to perform with an instrument.  I was interested in the people that had talent and their abilities to take songs such as “Billy Gene” and make it sound original. 

But who are the people that buy into the American Idol and worship it?  The people that ACTUALLY VOTE.  ( I have never voted ).  I’ll tell you who.

Roberta Swidersky, 54, wearing her homemade Archuleta T-shirt, was still proud of her favorite after show had ended.

WTF.  Its an age group from like 40 – 10000 that give a flying rats ass.

I’m just annoyed with the hype.  Keep it a talent contest and not a hype contest.  I would maybe have enjoyed it more if it was about the music only and not the Ford commercials or Apple commercials.  At least there were a few times during the season where it was about music.  It’s over and summer is here.   WOOT!!!
