Idol and Shinn

"American Idol"

I've grown bored of saying the same thing every week - Jordin is the best female singer and Blake has the best chance for the guys thanks to solid vocals and good personalities.

It really doesn't matter who else they wanted to boot, though I'd guess Lakisha will be finding the door soon.

Like Jennifer Hudson before her, she screams more than sings.

Everything is Energy

I caught Everything is Energy last night at the Visulite Theatre.

The band is the latest project from Chris Shinn who once helmed Unified Theory with some of the Blind Melon and Pearl Jam guys.

The new band has a lot of promise, though only about 50 people were there to witness it last night.

Keep an eye out for them, they're worth checking out.
