That could be good or bad.  ;)<\/p>\n<p>I just realized that I forgot to ever post about last week&#8217;s shows.  Tuesday I liked Samantha (the girl who came in with her friend, both of them enamored of Simon) and David (the boy who had struggled with paralyzed vocal chords) the best.  I don&#8217;t remember on Wednesday, honestly.  I watched it the next day and didn&#8217;t take notes, and don&#8217;t remember being particularly blow away by anyone.  My continuing gripe this year is that Simon keeps saying &#8220;you&#8217;re just like everyone else and therefore we don&#8217;t want you&#8221; but the ones they choose are also just like everyone else.  Although, I haven&#8217;t really seen any auditions that weren&#8217;t either good, but like everyone else, or awful.  So maybe there just aren&#8217;t any original-sounding people willing to audition anymore.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, check back here at seven and we&#8217;ll try out CoverItLive.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.coveritlive.com\/index2.php?option=com_altcaster&#038;task=viewaltcast&#038;altcast_code=6744edda1e&#038;height=550&#038;width=470\" scrolling=\"no\" height=\"550px\" width=\"470px\" frameBorder =\"0\" ><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m going to try a new live-blogging thing tonight, just for kicks.
