They were my neighbors growing up, BB their drummer was a great family friend. I was pretty young, but even then I knew they were special. It was a pretty regular event for them to set up and play at pool parties....man the late 70s early 80s were such a fantastic time. I'm 43 years old, and I don't typically give 2 hoots about American Idol..but that Adam kid is pretty special. His father did him a great service by exposing him to GOOD music at an early age, it's obviously served him well. Funny also he mentions his first exposure to Bowie's Diamond Dogs record...that was the first piece of music I ever actually owned, given to me by my dad as well.

Now the only 2 I'm actually interested to see what they do from week to week are Lambert (in a good way) and Gokey (in a bad way). The others are varying degrees of good, but kinda dull. My new Adam song pick is "Hold Back the Night" by Sinead O'Connor. Speaking of things that will never happen!

I would like to see him sing "The Last Goodbye" at some point. Not that Grace needs a burst of life but can you imagine how many Idol watchers have no idea who Jeff Buckley is? I am not even that big a fan of that type of singing but it's fun to see someone who really knows music do well. I think that Megan Joy is interesting in a Fiona Apple sort of way but I don't know enough about her to know if she "gets it" on that level and she's of course, too affected I guess.
