He has a style all his own.

Leighann... If that little snot nose punk wins tonight I will scream... The judges hammered Cook last night too... Blah Blah Blah
May 21, 2008 at 1:02 PM
You know what, if that little ankle biter wins it'll be the end of AI for me.
I was happy with Cook's performances but really thought he'd go out with a bang and was more than a little surprised when he didn't.

I am very slammed at work today. How are y'all?
Paul McCartney is #6.
And Dee Murray #7. Who is that you say? Listen to all Elton John albums from the '70s. Great bassman!
See you later....

I think I am spent after yesterday. I really zero opinion on this matter.
Mt. Cat, are you planning to move through all instuments? I am going to start studying up on flute and harmonica players. I am weak in those areas. :)
May 21, 2008 at 5:02 PM
Karen, We'll if people want, I can do lead singers next week? Then cello players.....Yo Yo Ma and....hmmmm?
May 21, 2008 at 5:38 PM
...any musician will tell you that one of the hardest things to do is sing and play bass at the same time...my vote: Little Paulie McCartney
