Hey y'all! Merrieeee has wandered off to the outlet mall with some of the eHP and her netbook is up and I (KAndre) am entertaining myself on it.
The Gala? Clay and the eHP looked fantabulous! And I freakin' LOVED My Eyes Adored You (which he totally lost track of at the end). ALAWH wasn't the perfection it could have been, but was better than 95% of any other live performers. It took awhile for the mike to be adjusted (because the band at the beginning was overwhelming), but improved as the evening went alone. Especially when compared to the Champions winner - who seemed to be a very nice young man, but whose voice wasn't really all that and hit some seriously painful notes. Moon River? He sang it perfectly - but it's a song I'm indifferent too. I have to say, I loved best when he made it clear he was singing songs he liked (and if you didn't, you weren't getting your money back). Just like every other artist out there. He's a balladeer...and a damn good one.
