AI9: Bye Bye, Big Mike

Yeah, I'm disappointed. First of all, look at the top three American Idol contestants ("artists"?!). Two of them have trouble carrying a tune. Is that pathetic or what?

Second of all, Michael Lynche has the voice and the charisma and the stage presence to be a star. I'm glad they had fourth-place-finisher Chris Daughtry on last night, to show Big Mike how far somebody can go after being axed by American Idol.

So we go to the finals with a very cute and talented guitarist who can sort of sing (that'd be Casey James), a deer-in-the-headlights on stage, gruff-voiced paint salesman who hasn't sung through a song yet without flatting at least one note (that'd be Lee DeWyze), and one genuine American Idol contender (that'd be Crystal Bowersox). Say it with me, now! BOW-ER-SOX! BOW-ER-SOX!
