What's the next event you're going? "well probably the AI final, we've talked about going if Haley's there, she's our mutual favorite and we want her to win. I want to go anyway tho" Do we know for sure that he is talking about he and Adam going to the finale? Or could he just mean he and Katri? I know Haley is Adam's favorite, but she could be Katri's favorite too. Anyone have the context in which he stated this?

ETA: But I can listen this again, when Anni gets home and uploads it.

Durbin - Adam popdust.com/2011/05/13/american-idol-sends-james-durbin-packing/"...“I did so much damn stuff that’s never been done on this show,” proclaimed James after he’d been announced as the evening’s loser. Which, well. Yes, he came far given the lot that life had given him, the Tourette’s and the autism and the kid in need of diapers. But his entire run was a dollar-store ripoff of Adam Lambert’s, only augmented with guest stars (Hulk Hogan! Zakk Wylde!) and much worse singing and the consistent declaration that he was “metal,” which he trotted out again tonight and which, dude, seriously, go listen to the new record by Jesu or the new Liturgy or something that is actually considered metal in the year 2011 and see how wrong you are. ..." www.ktvu.com/entertainment/27877635/detail.html"... James said upon his exit that he "did so much that's never been done on this show before." James did bring the hair-metal aesthetic to this show. I can't recall anyone else on this show doing that, truly. But I think he was referring to his performances, and aside from the flaming piano, James was more or less ripping pages out of the Adam Lambert playbook week after week. Except he was nowhere near on the same level vocally as The Glambert...." www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5h_YqALd6A6JcPyW-tNxwAlWSFs2A?docId=6c2ea70f355a48a0aa7decf67d4f3f0b"...Durbin, the towering singer whose vocal acrobatics recalled the wonders of eighth season runner-up Adam Lambert, was never among the show's bottom-three vote-getters after such eccentric performances as Muse's "Uprising" or Elton John's "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting," which respectively included accompaniment by marching drummers and a flaming piano. ..." It's refreshing when entertainment writers get it. Some of them maybe most of them, are clueless of anything except the sensational. Now if the judges would only get it, but they won't. They've been shamelessly pimping certain contestants from the beginning and it ain't fun to have sand kicked in your face by the voting public. It will be interesting to see where things go from here. James' comment about bringing things to the show never done before is true but it's too bad they were all extraneous fluff. Adam spent his 1:50 seconds singing and showing his chops not filling the time with David Lee Roth wanna be jumping, waving his arms, and trying to get the audience to scream louder to validate his performance. James may have a career ahead of him but I don't think it will be as a solo artist or as a major star, more in the Taylor Hicks or Blake Lewis level which is still not bad. By the way, it should be flattering to Adam even if it's BS that people think he has power to control the AI universe.

oh i left this out. Ellen talking at the beginning about how Adam is confessing his love in public and talking about finnish boy in interviews (Sauli is giggling kinda awkwardly in the background during all this) etc but Sauli is still so quiet, why? "I don't know, it's just that.. everybody keep asking and i don't want to talk about private stuff, i pretty much revealed my whole life when i was in big brother and i kinda want to get rid of that.. i don't want to reveal it again. but yeah i can say i'm very happy right now"
