Pretty decent show tonight. Let's recap on the girls first since no one posted last night:

-- Katherine was great, as always. I can see her winning this year.

-- I thought Mandisa did really, really well, but not as great as the judges made it out to be. Still the best performance of the night, probably.

-- I loved Kellie's performance. She's so damn pretty, and she has a great voice.

-- Kinnik was just all over the place last night. She started out good, but she went sharper than a block of Vermont cheddar. Which brings me to my picks for eliminations tomorrow night, for the girls: Kinnik and Melissa (Melissa is great, I really like her voice, but she doesn't really stand out like the rest of the girls.)

Now on to tonight's show, with the guys.

-- Someone finally did "When a Man Loves a Woman", but unfortunately Gedeon didn't nail it, at least in my eyes. Decent performance, not great.

-- I was a bit disappointed with Chris tonight. He should stick to the harder rocking songs. Still a good performance.

-- Buh-bye, Chicken Lit...er...Kevin. I agree with Simon 110%. He definitely got the granny vote.

-- Best performance of the night: Taylor Hicks, bar none. Just awesome.

-- I'm glad Ace made a comeback this week. A bad performance tonight could have meant a ticket home tomorrow. He pulled no punches tonight. I was impressed.

-- I kind of agree with Simon's verdict on Elliot. Good performance, but he seemed a bit uncomfortable. It's as if he was holding back a bit. Still one of the better performances of the night.

-- I'm quickly becoming a fan of Bucky. I like his whole Bob Seger "thing". He'll go pretty far in the competition hopefully.

Tomorrow night, Will and Kevin will be eliminated.
