9 perform - 2 to go home

Performance night is over. Decent night overall. Nobody was dirt horrible, but definitely a few weak ones.

Here are my rankings.

Top Tier
1. Crystal - didn't know the song well, but liked it. Very bluesy, good vocals, even her stage presence was better. The song was peppy and cool.
2. Casey - from sheer vocal and my preference of style, thIs was pretty good. Girls, don't let Casey fool you, I think he's a good singer too, not just a pretty boy.
3. Lee - pretty good.  Seems to be getting more comfortable on stage.
4. Big Mike - great vocals, good song, stark performance, but nice.

Next Tier
5. Siobhan - not bad, she's just grating on me a bit.
6. Katie - pretty good vocals, but I'm just not buying the sassy "I'm gonna act older" thing.
7. Tim Urban - look, I found very little to like about this whiney, pleading,annoying performance, but he wasn't that bad. Clearly trying to appeal to his teeny bopper base.
8. Aaron - sigh.  It was the karaoke moment of the year.  OK vocals, but everything else was cheesy and bad.
9. Andrew Garcia -  Surely his time has come. If that were ever to be on the radio in my car, I would wreck on purpose to stop it.  Maybe just a fender bender.

So, my bottom 3 are Tim, Aaron and Andrew, with Andrew and Tim leaving. I think Aaron will survive.

Vote in the bottom 3 poll.

So, how will you handle the scoring this week when two are kicked off?
