We have moved! Move with us!
Funny. I’m currently selling my home and moving into another one.
Effectively, that’s what we’re doing here, too. My new Radio & TV Talk home is now at
http://www.accessatlanta.com/weblogs/radio-tv-talk/
Please move to that URL. All my old entries going back to March, 2009 on this current platform (Wordpress) shall remain for now.
The biggest difference (besides the look) is the fact you now have to register to comment. The good news there is hopefully the trolls will go away.
To begin, click the registration link at the top of the COMMENTS section. Once you are registered, you can comment as many times as you like on any of our stories or blogs, as long as you follow our guidelines for commenting.
It’s a relatively new piece of software so there are many issues that hopefully will be dealt with. Please email me at rho@ajc.com if you have any suggestions on how we can make it more user friendly. The hope is that this new software will be more compatible with mobile devices, which is where more and more folks are reading this blog anyway.
I’ve been blogging since 2004. This is my fourth blog software platform. Change is constant!

I’m a sap, I’m tearing up. His voice was ok, not spectacular.

He reminded me of the guy on this last season of AGT whose parent had never heard him and he was an opera singer and really good

Not sure why I’m thinking the parents never having heard their son sing translates to them never sneaking into his room and finding things wrong (lol).

The guy who has a severe stuttering problem is who I’ve been waiting to hear. Glad his performance is tonight.

Keith said it right. Clifton has a good voice but it’s raw…absolutely no training probably not even chorus in high school

Alot of people that have a speech impediment, can usually sing pretty good. I know my brother can

So…I missed last night, and judging by tonight, I’m glad I did. If Ms. Minaj and Ms. Carey keep this nonsense up, I’ll be checking out of this season before we even get to the live shows.

Nana, I love, love Adele. Her strong English accent is erased when she sings. It amazes me. If any of you are familiar with Michele (pronounced Ma chel le) (sp?), her Mickey Mouse voice is absent when she sings. Love her song “Nicety.”

Did I hear Nicki just tell Mariah that she was dismissed?

BTW, WT, welcome back. Rodney won’t start live blogging until the live shows(we might be able to persuade him to consider starting during Hollywood Week….if we can ever get the frickin new site to work!)

Pitchy, just take Mel Tillis for example. His strutter is really bad, but he sure can sing.

Katherine (Kesbahn) says she’s from planet Earth but I’m not so sure.

Would hate to know I was locked in a room with Nicky Minaj and Fran Drescher and had to listen to a one hour conversation between them. Pure torture! Also, disappointed with MC, thought she had more class than that. She is dragging herself down to MN’s level. She would do good to just ignore her.

Deirdre can you give lessons on how to ignore her?

No musical theater anywhere is going to hire this girl.

Someone should have told her to not wear those stockings with that dress. Hell, she think she has something on her twin. Please, please, cut my ears off…

Harriett, you think you might warm to the sob story coming up? Not necessarily a sob story, but another story on a negative side to one’s life as the others have been.

I don’t register either so it has been fun being with you guys. I can still read and will wave real big every once in a while. Thanks for the fun. I’ll miss you. See you at the Braves game Pitchy.

They will end tonight’s show with another sob story with a good voice, I bet

Hey guys. I’m sorry. I’ve been out at a personal meeting tonight and wasn’t able to live blog. I came back a few minutes ago to find out you guys were all commenting here which confused me — until I noticed commenting was shut off on the new blogs. I called the person in charge and found out hours too late that there was some registration glitch issues, which is why commenting was turned off. So now I know why you’re here. You had nowhere else to go! I will post something up here for now, albeit it is sorta too late since the second episode ends in two minutes.
