Mixed feelings about how the shows being run. I can't stand listening to the host bellowing voice, reminds me of a friggin circus, and they always have the audience noise way to loud. I don't like the Judges making the final decision on who stays. It all just seems, I don't know, corny in comparison to American Idol.
Despite all that when you get to see young superstars popping up right before your eyes like Drew and the amazing Astro,
makes it all worth while I suppose...
Note: Talk about missing the boat, James Kenney/Russian Roulette, was one of the most riveting auditions I've ever seen in a vocals competition,
