After watching Idol on Fox tonight and seeing Bono talking with the finalists, I've got to say that I was moved by the show. I began thinking about other musical moments in TV that touched your heart. My favorite is the 2002 Superbowl halftime show with U2(especially when Bono opens his jacket and shows the American flag).

What's your...thx
 
ahhhhh you guys on the East Coast!!! STOP IT!! Ok,, I should have opened this thread! LOL

It's only 4:37 here...
 
My wife called me here at work 15 minutes ago. She told me that both my girls were really moved by the Idol show tonight, and, in fact, that one of them was bawling her eyes out. So, my wife took them downstairs and made a donation.
 
I know this is not politically correct but if the show tonight was a continuation of last nights show....ugh....

I only flipped it to AI last night for about 5 minutes and after seeing Mr. Seacrest and all the insincere AI "Gives Back" b.s....well, I couldn't take it anymore. I already know I didn't give it a chance, etc. but that's my very limited take.

I will say I remember a moment (it might have been during the same superbowl show that djexpress was talking about) where Bono took a girl out of the audience and they sang together during a song. They laid on their backs like they were looking up and watching clouds float in the sky.....
 
DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME WATCHING THIS CRAPFEST

nobody gets eliminated this week

the votes from this week will be added to next week's, and the lowest vote total from the combined 2-weeks votes, will be eliminated.

Looks like Chris and LaKreature got a short reprieve!!! LOL

What.....So far this has been a good show....it's about half over.....I like the idea of the "giving back".....AI has helped a lot of people.......time to give back.....plus great entertainment.....

Gray,

I am gald you made the donation, but honestly, I prefer to help out charities and orgainizations locally than helping building some water plant in Africa. We have enough people who need help right here in the country, and I personally think it is about time we start looking at home for the giving and charity instead of having the money always go somewhere else.
 
I should have probably just SHUT UP!!

But listen up yo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Those pos's make so much money off AI its ridiculous! Think of how many votes they get at .99 a vote! Oh yea....AI will donate .10 cents or something like that!


I am happy people are sending the people that need the help....BUT MAN OH MAN!!

I'd almost hate to see how much money AI pulls in one year just from the viewers??

MILLIONS!!! But yet, THEY ASK FOR MORE!!!!


These stupid idiots are trying to get money from whomever....which ends up being the "middle class" people who in actuality....have enough payments already!

DO I SUPPORT THE CAUSE?? 100%

But for *(^** sake...they could donate A LOT more! Do you think it would hurt for them to take all extra money for "one year" and donate it?? HECK NO!!

I know they have many many more seasons left! Thats not even a question!

So yea, I dropped some pennies/dollars in the hat.....but I think AI could do more! I just keep thinkin about the millions of votes they recieve! And the sponsorships, and the whatever........

They are trying to do the "right" thing....but to me...it makes AI look that much more worse! And I'm sorry if that offends you....but thats just one opinion and nothing more!

This is for charities local, and US. It's for both, US as well as Africa. They did a segment on New Orleans, LA......

Does it really matter where kids are dying? I can help so I do......

Yeah.....this makes sense.

Imagine the lawsuits they'd get from cell phone customers of AT&T, who paid 95 cents per text message for their votes.

Mathematically, its possible for someone to NOT be the lowest vote getter for 2 weeks in a row, and still be eliminated.
 
Did you see the part after one of the shots from Africa with Seacrest and Simon...the one with the orphaned kids?
When they returned to the stage, Simon had his back to the camera looking at something off stage as Seacrest asked him a question about how moved he (Simon) was from that particular visit.

Simons reply, "you see the number on the screen, dial it so you can help" and then turned to look off stage again. He never spoke personally about his experience that Seacrest was asking about.

Did that bit look odd to you?

I donate to Catholic charities, but I did like the AI show for what its worth.....
 
Well, we all know now that Elvis is alive and well. I thought he would look much older. I shouldn't have doubted all those rumors about Elvis sightings. Glad he is back.:sqbiggrin:

i noticed that too...i think Simon was getting emotional and he didnt want to show it. It was a good show...Bono rules and yes, the U2 Superbowl performance was the greatest musical TV moment ever.

That and the South Park Episode where Cartman cant stop singing "Come Sail away" by STyx
