It’s starting to heat up outside (at least here in DC). Summer weather means summer concerts, of course. So, let’s roll out Part 1 of the Blog Summer Concert Series!
I ran the idea through Blog Friend Andrea:
Blog Friend Andrea: i have an acoustic band request though
Me: ok
BFA: sister hazel
Me: dude
Me: #1 on the list
Me: my favorite summer band
BFA: ummm so when are we having babies already
So…I’m gonna go do what I do. You enjoy the music!
– Sister Hazel – Leaving On A Jet Plane/All For You
– Gin Blossoms – Hey Jealousy
– Eric Clapton – Tears in Heaven
– Rick Astley – Never Gonna Give You Up
– Seether f/Amy Lee – Broken
– Barenaked Ladies – Careless Whisper (cover)
– Carole King – It’s Too Late
– Dave Matthews/Carlos Santana/Tim Reynolds – Love of My Life
– Sponsored music video butcher job is “One Love.”
Here’s how it should sound:
– Whoa, whoa, whoa! Kermit D. Frog makes a cameo. He says he loves being green, TOTALLY contradicting himself:
– The Top 9 are pre-divided:
– Group One: Beatbox Blake, Last Chris, Queen Sanjaya
– Group Two: Hot Haley, Gina, Phil
– Group Three: Jordin, Haley, LaKisha
– Group Three is, of course, not the bottom three. That was brain surgery there…
– Group One is safe, as well. Hot Haley, Gina, and Phil are on the chopping block!
– We meet last week’s Stupid Trivia Winner, flowing nicely into this week’s Stupid Trivia Question.
– Allstate has joined the “Idol Gives Back” parade. Cool enough.
– Tony Bennett was supposed to sing, but got sick, so Michael Buble fills in. He really is a throwback to another generation. Good stuff.
– Buble confesses he still votes for Skankilicious. That’s a good one, but still not enough to give him Blog Hero Status. That is reserved for Rick Astley!
– Back with the Bottom Three: Hot Haley, Gina the Good Witch, and Phil.
– Phil is safe, meaning either the eye candy or one of my guilty pleasures will be going home!
– The judges are wary to criticize them…well, except for See-moan. He isn’t shocked at all.
– America Voted almost 33 million times.
– HOLY CRAP—Gina goes home?????? Not cool. She’s having trouble keeping it together.
– OK. We’re to the point where it doesn’t really matter who goes home in what order. Everyone has “made it” now. But seriously, Gina has much more talent and future than Hot Haley or the Queen. But this is the most messed-up season ever.
This afternoon, I was at my neighborhood Trader Joe’s, purchasing an assortment of fresh, frozen and dried fruit. Good times, I say.
In the store they play a variety of music, a pretty decent mix. I’ve always been entertained when I’m in there. Well, entertained enough to keep going back from fresh, frozen and dried fruit.
Upon gathering my desired items, I got in the longest cash register line. (Don’t hate…there was a cute girl in front of me!)
And what came over the system? Blog Hero Rick Astley!
Just another instance that Rick Astley is really taking over the United States, 15 years after he was originally popular!
