It's down to Crystal or Lee. From the performances tonight, I think that Crystal has it but the trend has been for a guy to win. I do like Lee's style much more than Crystal's but I also feel that Crystal brings something unique to the table. Guy songs are so much easier to sing--perhaps that's why the guys are winning lately. who wins?
It was no surprise to me that Casey James went home last night. He was a favorite of mine early on but as the weeks went by, he just lost his appeal. It's down to Crystal and Lee. I hope that Lee takes it. casey goes home
Lee Dewyze came out as a true star last night. If I had to choose a winner right now, it would definitely be Lee. The judges seemed to feel the same way. video

All four were good on Tuesday night but somebody had to go home. It ended up being Big Mike (Michael Lynche). When it came down to the last two on Wednesday's show, it was quite apparant that it was Mike that was done. All the hype about Crystal having the best shot to win and there she stood next to Mike. Even he knew it was over way before they announced it. Mike singing his last song

It's been 50 years since 'The Fantasticks' began it's run. It is the longest running musical. We are continuing that legacy with our very own version at Rock Solid in Winona.

The audience was very receptive and laughed at all the right places. Tickets are going fast--call Rock Solid in Winona or get them at Midtown Foods and HyVee both in Winona. Together we can save the youth center!!! 50 years
Season 9 has been less than fantastic and it seems to be sliding ever further into the abiss. Tuesday night's show got the lowest ratings since it's first season and as I watched the performances, it was all I could do to keep from yawning. Of course Aaron Kelly went home which leaves only 4.
