Season 5 American Idol runner-up Katherine McPhee’s CD will be out at the end of the month. After a month delay. I am looking forward to hearing what she wants in an album. I actually really liked Kellie Pickler’s CD and also Chris Daughtry’s. And I’ve become a Kelly Clarkson fan. Even though I’m not into country that much, I also like Carrie Underwood’s latest effort. I have to say, the American Idol machine really puts out some talent. They have single handedly revived pop music at a time it was in peril.
Personally, my favorite new bands lean more in the direction of Evanescence and The Killers. But I enjoy good pop. Most people do, which is why it’s called pop music (short for popular).
I liked McPhee last year, even though she gave off major diva vibes at times. I was rooting for Taylor Hicks, and his first CD delivered. Now I am curious to hear what Kat has done. So far, all the Season 5 alum have done really solid work. I wish Elliot Yamin would get one out soon. All we have so far is a Christmas single available on iTunes.
Won’t buy this one. She irritated the hell out of me, especially when Elliot was voted off by the slimmest of margins.
Tried to get tickets for Taylor’s concert at the Ryman in Nashville. They were sold out in 2 minutes, manily due to a pre-sale on ticketmaster that only a few knew about. This, according to Glenda at the Ryman. I called there to get tickets. I can’t do ticketmaster due to that code thing. I have a visual inpairment and their code and background are too close in color to see the code. Thank goodness your code is easier to see.
So if anyone tries to get Taylor tix, I wish you luck. I think what ticks me off the most are the sites that are able to buy pre-sale tickets and then ask huge prices to purchase them.
