Hello. Just thought I would pass this tidbit for the Kevin Covais fans. Seems little "chicken little" has gone into the movies. On August 29th, Kevin will be starring in the movie entitled "College". It is kind of a teeny bopper movie but for the Kevin fans it should be a real treat to him. So glad to see that so many of our idols are still enjoying success!

Hello all. Came across some idol news I thought might be of interest. Here goes:

Clay Aiken and his surrogate/friend Jaymes Foster are the proud new parents of a healthy baby boy. His name is Parker Foster Aiken. No real details about the weight and length but the amazing part is he was born on 8/08/08. Seems that Clay is also returning to the play "Spamalot" for a few months. When he was in it before, ticket sales soared but since he has left they are not doing so ...

For those of you who may not know, our Taylor released a cd this week called "Early Works". This is your chance to buy the music that Taylor did before he won on American Idol. I already own both of his early works but plan to also buy this one to show my support of this fantastic soul man. You can only get the cd at your local Target store. It is a great cd! Also read that coming out soon is the DVD "Whomp At The Warfield" which is a solo concert that Taylor did in ...

Hi there. Just happened to catch this show and I must say I am rooting for the only guy left in the competition. I think his name is Jerry Garcia. Just love the tone of his voice and I might just possibly be interested in getting his future music even though I am not big into country. I am almost sure Gee is watching this show.

Take care everyone!

Hi gang, sorry it has been awhile but my life is quite busy these days watching my grandson and taking the other one to swim lessons, boys club, etc. Anyway, wanted to give some thoughts on the new cd that Ace released on July 15th. I am wonderfully surprised and happy with how good it is. He has several songs on there that show his versatality in singing. Of course his falsetto is definitely his money-maker. The first week his cd debuted at #160 but hopefully with radio air play it ...

The National Anthem is a very difficult song. The vocal range needed to sing the anthem properly is vast, and even good singers can have a hell of a time performing it well. American Idol contestants, after their season, often get the chance to perform the anthem at sporting events. Both David Archuleta and Syesha Mercado performed it at a sporting event during their Top 3-prescribed trip home (Syesha for the Tampa Bay Rays, Archie ...

The Telectroscope

The Telectroscope was to be the granddaddy of optical fiber, enabling people standing in front of a humungous lens in New York City and another in London to interact with each other, albeit silently.

A tragic breach in the ocean tunnel's wall halted work on the project in 1892, and for a century, the Telectroscope was left for a failed relic. But artist Paul St. George revived (and thoroughly updated) the idea this year, at last creating the Telectroscope.

Last night I totally feel in love with Josiah Leming. He was the last one to audition, and he is an 18 year old living in his car. He is flippin� adorable and I loved his voice: British accent and all. I think he will probably get cut not too far down the line, but I sure liked him.
