Canadian Idol Double Post

My webhost was down for two days, so I have to cover a lot of ground in one shot:

Performance Show of August 7th 2006

Featuring classic rock was a show I liked a lot. Supertramp's Roger Hodson didn't really wow me since I'm not really a fan of that band. Dennis DeYoung on the other hand... next to various jazz groups, Styx is one of my all-time favorites. That made a huge difference for me.

Most of the performances were from very good to great. Eva Avila made us Montrealers proud. My kid Steffi D was also a standout.

Not terribly impressive to me was Chad Doucette. I really don't like his vocal style, and I suspect he'll be eliminated.

Canadian Idol Results Show of August 8th 2006

Hearing Denis DeYoung perform a medley of Styx songs gave me shivers. I was surprised that he sang Mr Roboto though; the "Kilroy Was Here" album ruined the group, as no one could take it seriously anymore.

The results were surprising: Chad Doucette was safe, but Steffi D was in danger again? What do folks have against my kid... she's been getting low votes 3 of the last 4 weeks! At least she was safe though. Rob Masters was cut.

As soon as Chad is cut, it will only be among the most talented competitors.
