Last night’s results on “American Idol” were about as predictable as Simon Cowell and Ryan Seacrest’s annoyingly uncomfortable banter. We all knew Paige Miles was going home, it was just a matter of how we got there.

The painfully 60-minute-long show began with a group performance of Wham’s “Wake Me Up Before You Go Go,” which was enhanced by the fact that the 11 finalists recorded the track and then sang along with it. So every time you heard one of them sing, you heard two of them sing. Weird.

Then before getting to the results, Seacrest interviewed Siobhan and Katie. Siobhan’s glass-blowing boss was in attendance, admitting he won’t shave his scraggly beard until Siobhan gets kicked off, if she does at all. Um, dude, we can tell you haven’t shaved that nest in 20 years. She also had her friends, the “Shi-vombies,” on hand. This chick just keeps getting weirder, doesn’t she? Katie’s interview talked about her dad, who won’t be in the audience but instead prefers to hang out at a bar and let friends at home text him what is going on. Real slick.

Anyway, here we go…Siobhan, safe. Lee and Casey are next but Seacrest leaves them hanging, telling them to stand for a bit. Tim and Paige are after that. Guess what? Both are in the Bottom 3. Big duh there. Meanwhile, Seacrest goes to commercial but inadvertently leaves Lee and Casey standing there awaiting their fate. When they return, he announces that so far Siobhan, Lee and Casey are safe. Way to go, dude.

Next, this week’s mentor Miley Cyrus sings her new song, “When I Look at You,” and I’m going to try and be as polite as I can here. It was painful. She was nearly as pitchy as Paige Miles on Tuesday, and if she was in the finals of this competition, poor little Miley would stand no chance against Siobhan or Crystal.

Back to business. Aaron Kelly, safe. Didi Benami, safe. Michael Lynche, safe. Crystal Bowersox, safe, but not until she has the best snappy retort of the night. Seacrest said that Simon wanted her to keep playing the guitar and Kara didn’t, so who was Crystal going to listen to? “Me,” she replied. Even Cowell clapped at that response.
Down to Katie and Andrew. Katie was in the Bottom 3, someone texts her dad, he does another shot. Andrew is safe and lucky to be safe after that butchering of “Heard it throught the Grapevine.”

So it’s Tim, Paige and Katie. Seacrest sends Katie back to safety, someone texts her dad, he does another shot.

Next, Joe Jonas and Demi Lovato sing their new single together. Thankfully, both of these kids can actually sing, and it’s not painful to watch! What a concept.

Finally, we’re ready to face the results….Tim or Paige? It’s Paige, Tim is safe. Someone texts Katie’s dad, he does another shot. Katie’s dad is officially drunk.

But wait…there is the judge’s save, right? Wrong. Simon tells Paige not to bother singing for a save, she is going home either way. Wow. That was maybe one of the show’s finest moments, right up there with that kid who worshipped Clay Aiken only to have Aiken join him on stage and have the kid go into convulsions. And the judges actually got it right, because Paige was clearly not going to win. She’s not going on tour, either, at least not with the other 10 finalists.

So that’s it America. We’re down to the final 10 on Idol, and it’s surely looking like a Crystal/Siobhan/Casey show the rest of the way, with the others supporting. See you next week, for Usher an R&B week!

Last night before the 11 hopefuls took the stage on American Idol,” judge Simon Cowell told Ryan Seacrest and all of us who cared to listen that he thought it was a critical night for the singers. That’s because the one that goes home this week will miss out on the American Idol summer tour. Only the Top 10 go (I’ve never quite figured out why the 12 finalists don’t all go), which means the 11th place finisher may miss out on all that tour dough. Seriously, that’s huge…and I’m glad Simon pointed it out. However, not too many of the contestants sounded like they were singing for their lives last night. Again. Oh yeah, and Miley Cyrus was the “mentor” this week, and I think we have to use “mentor” in very loose terms here. Here is the recap….

THE REALLY GOOD

Crystal Bowersox is the only one who fits into this category. Of course, her spot on version of “Me and Bobby McGee” followed three mostly sucky performances by Paige, Tim and Aaron. I didn’t write much in the way of notes on Crystal because I was watching her and paying attention, but did manage to scribble the words “effortless” and “awesome.” Randy said “That’s what being an American Idol is all about!”….Ellen said it was great but that she wants to see more of Crystal’s personality….Kara said Crystal was more engaged this week with the audience….and Simon said he wouldn’t change a thing, that he saw Pink do an amazing version of that song and that Crystal’s version was as good as that. Well, that says it all, doesn’t it?

THE GOOD

Lee Dewyze kicked things off with a subtle tribute to the recently departed Alex Chilton, by singing the old Box Tops’ hit, “The Letter.” It was a good choice, on key and with good emotion. It may have seemed a bit repetitive in spots though. Randy said he wasn’t sure about the song choice but that Lee knocked it out of the box….Ellen made some silly reference about her favorite pen not running out of ink and that Lee was that pen. Um, okay…..Kara said Lee has raised the bar for himself and has made great strides in progressing….and Simon disagreed with all of us, saying he was surprised at the choice and it came off as kind of corny. Sorry Simon, not with you on this one.

Siobhan Magnus closed the night with another Stevie Wonder song, “Superstitious.” You might remember she worked her way into the Top 24 with a powerful version of “Livin’ For the City.” It wasn’t her best showing, but still much better than almost everyone but Crystal last night. She has to stop those Adam Lambert screams, though. We really don’t care, Siobhan! Randy loved it and said she showed conviction….Ellen said “You are so good!”…..Kara said she expresses herself so well but it wasn’t Siobhan’s best showing…and Simon said some folks will like it and some will hate it, and that there definitely is too much screaming in her repertoire. He then said that as a whole, all of the contestants need to start making better song choices.

THE IN-BETWEEN

Aaron Kelly took on the one #1 hit Aerosmith had, “Don’t Wanna Miss a Thing,” and it wasn’t horrible considering a) he was dealing with laryngitis, and b) he followed Paige and Tim. Aaron also admitted to having a crush on Miley. I would say, “dude, you can do better than that” but then again, he probably can’t. It was nice how he changed up the melody a little but still pitchy in spots. Randy said it was not perfect but that he was better than, you guessed it, Paige and Tim…..Ellen said she thinks he’s so talented at such a young age….Kara said it was the best song choice so far (Aaron went 4th) but that the vocals were not perfect…and Simon said it was a bit old-fashioned, but that Aaron has zero chance of going home tonight.

Michael Lynche did a super-cheesy version of Percy Sledge’s “When a Man Loves a Woman,” but unfortunately for him, it looked twice as cheesy because he followed Crystal. Randy said it wasn’t the perfect song choice, and wasn’t Michael’s best performance…Ellen said it was a safe choice…Kara said it was good technically but kind of boring…and Simon said it was “too much” and didn’t make the song relevant, and also that it was a bit over-indulgent. Hence, the cheese factor.

Katie Stevens took on Fergie’s “Big Girls Don’t Cry” and it was pitchy in spots and kind of karaoke-ish. Add to this that I can’t stand the fact that Katie sings like she has a piece of candy stuck in her throat. But the judges like her and I have a feeling lots of young boys like her, too. And it really wasn’t horrible, not compared to, yep, Paige and Tim! Randy said it wasn’t Katie’s best showing but he liked the song choice for her….Ellen said she thought it was Katie’s best so far….Kara said it’s a good genre for Katie but that there were pitch issues…and Simon said it was good but that Katie is not exactly “believable” yet.

Casey James went with an odd song choice, Huey Lewis’ “Power of Love.” Really, dude? It was a decent vocal, and once again he played guitar like a man possessed, but it was too safe for me. Randy said he wasn’t a fan of the song choice but that Casey did okay with it…..Ellen agreed with Randy and thought it was the best vocal of the night so far (Casey went 9th). Yeah, um, no, Ellen…..Kara said Casey is on “another level”…and Simon said he disagreed with Kara, that it was not current sounding, and sounded too much like the original to the point of it being like a cheesy ’80’s cover band version. I am leaning more toward Simon here.

Didi Benami sang Linda Ronstadt’s “You’re No Good” and I thought it was not bad, kind of a hip loungy version of it. Randy loved the idea of it but that it was too pitchy and didn’t connect for him….Ellen said she didn’t get the song choice…Kara said it was like Didi was playing a character and not really her….Simon said it was ironic that Didi kept screeching “You’re no good!” when it wasn’t very good. I think the judges were quite harsh, but not completely wrong. Bottom line? There were a few worse than Didi last night.

THE PRETTY BAD

Tim Urban took on Queen’s “Crazy LittleThing Called Love” and did everything to hide his mundane vocal ability including a slide across the stage and high-fiving the crowd. It was on pitch, but really, any schmuck can sing that song. It was very boring, safe and corny. Randy said it was boring and like karaoke….Ellen said it felt like an audition but that she knows Tim has fans…Kara said Tim didn’t do enough with the song…and Simon said it was pointless and silly and an odd choice, and that Tim has “zero chance to win.” Wow. But quite correct.

Andrew Garcia, where have you gone? He did Marvin Gaye’s “Heard it through the Grapevine” and the poor guy was trying way too hard. It was boring and as Mrs. Mike so correctly pointed out, Andrew has lost his artistry. Randy said it wasn’t good, was the wrong song choice and it didn’t show Andrew’s vocal ability well….Ellen said it won’t be enough to get votes….Kara said Andrew is still chasing that “moment” he had in Hollywood week and that it’s messing with his head…and Simon said that maybe that “moment” was overrated, that Andrew sucked the soul out of the song last night. Ouch, but not incorrect. Sorry dude, you’re not going to last much longer.

THE REALLY BAD

Paige Miles had the strangest song choice, maybe of the season so far…Phil Collins’ “Against All Odds.” It was weak all around, amateurish and pitchy like crazy. I wasn’t exactly sure it was as bad as I thought, but the judges confirmed it for me. Randy said it was “honestly terrible”….Ellen complimented that Paige wore high heels without falling down and that she looked good, then deferred to Kara and Simon on the music critique. Nice cop-out, Ellen…..Kara said it was Paige’s worst vocal so far, and that she almost seems to have stopped competing…Simon agreed with Randy and Kara, saying it was “all over the place.” I don’t think there is any way Paige makes the touring Top 10, which sucks because I think we all know she has more talent than Tim Urban does.

So that’s it….I’d put down a lot of money on Paige going home tonight, if I was a betting man. Tim and Andrew are not quite safe either and will probably join Paige in the Bottom 3. We’ll be treated (loosely, of course) to Miley Cyrus, Joe Jonas and some other Disney star who I’m not hip to yet…sorry, I’m showing my age here!

So, who do you think is going home?

Last night began the portion of the “American Idol” season when they eliminate one finalist per week. And it was 30 minutes too long of an episode. It’s bad enough that they only have to let one contestant go within an hour’s time, but they manage to fill up that hour with too much crap. They also reminded us of one reason many folks hate the show–the judges’ save. In other words, from this week up until when there are five finalists left, the judges can choose to give the eliminated person a lifeline on the show if they feel America booted them for the wrong reason. To me, that’s just sticking the middle finger to America, watering down their power to vote for who they want to win. In a way, it’s a microcosm of the music industry as we know it today–“you’re gonna listen to this crap, whether you want to or not!”

After some Seacrest/judges banter, Season 7 champ David Cook and his band performed a rocking version of “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” to celebrate Rolling Stones week. In three minutes time, Cook reminded us of how weak this year’s Top 12 really is.

Then after the obligatory Ford video, it was on to business–specifically getting to the Bottom 3. Paige Miles was first….and she was the first to the Bottom 3. No huge surprise there. Lee Dewyze, safe. Siobhan Magnus, safe. Aaron Kelly, safe, thanks to the judges thinking he’s the second coming of David Archuleta. Seacrest had Andrew Garcia and Tim Urban stand up together, and then told Andrew he was safe and Tim was in the Bottom 3. So far, America’s got it right.

Then the second artist of the night, Orianthi, who performed her new single, “According To You.” As a singer, she is another Kelly Clarkson-ish shouty singer doing crappy formulaic pop songs. But man, can this girl smoke it on guitar. You might remember seeing her perform with Carrie Underwood at he Grammys, and smoking it there too.

Back to business. Didi Benami, safe. Crystal Bowersox, safe. Katie Stevens, safe. Michael Lynche, safe, because the judges propped him up as the second coming of Ruben Studdard. Down to Casey James and Lacey Brown, and you just know the producers did that on purpose to make it rhyme. Casey, safe. Lacey, Bottom 3. No huge surprise again, and exactly who I thought would be there. Then Seacrest sent Tim back to safety, and he was as shocked as much of America. So down to Lacey and Paige.

But first, a performance by Top 40 darling Kesha. Folks, I don’t want to wallow in my own bitterness here, but Kesha symbolizes everything that is wrong with today’s music industry. They took something in Lady GaGa and tried to mold a Nashville pop songwriter into that. She is just awful, and I guess if there is a silver lining here it’s that I can avoid artists like her and stay within the friendly confines of my own iTunes database. And I don’t have to listen to the radio if I don’t want to.

So, the person going home or, as Seacrest said, in DANGER of going home….Lacey Brown. Paige is safe for one more week. But now Lacey had to sing for her life on the show, and she chose Brandi Carlile’s “The Story,” something she sang recently. Randy, Kara, Simon and Ellen huddled and pretended to deliberate, but we all knew they would not waste their one save on Lacey Brown. And as Simon said, it was unanimous, and Lacey was going home. Well, duh.

So that’s it….we’re now down to 11, but still have to weed out some of the riff raff like Tim and Paige, who are not cut out to be stars. Frankly, neither is Aaron Kelly, but the judges want to see how far they can drag him along. Thanks for reading my bitter commentary today, and now let’s all watch some March Madness!

Finally, mercifully, the 12 finalists on “American Idol” gave performances that actually made you feel like they belong here. Of course, not all of them did, but there were a few pleasant surprises. The judges were mostly annoying again, however, and continue to prop up Aaron Kelly to the point where it’s unbearable, when the kid clearly doesn’t deserve it.

The show began with that annoying “Tell them what they’ve won, Don Pardo” voice booming and announcing Ryan Seacrest and the four judges. Seriously, producers, this is laughable. Okay. Enough of me being bitter and cynical. On to the performances, and this week they featured the music of The Rolling Stones.

THE VERY GOOD

Crystal Bowersox closed out the night with an awesome version of “You Can’t Always Get What You Want,” and for my money, she just killed it. To back that up, I’m going to give her some of my money by buying last night’s performance on iTunes. Okay, I know she’ll never see that money, but you get the point. The judges, however, didn’t agree with me. Randy said it wasn’t Crystal’s best but that he loves her….Ellen said Crystal sings with such ease and showed some personality last night…Kara said how Crystal looks so comfortable up there….and Simon said that while Crystal is 100% a clear audience favorite, Siobhan was better last night. I respectfully disagree, and this is coming from a big Siobhan supporter. Crystal was awesome last night and she keeps getting better.

THE GOOD

Casey James strapped on his guitar again and did a great version of “It’s All Over Now.” Dude plays guitar like a madman, and he even played SLIDE guitar, which is as ballsy as can be in that situation. It was totally the right song, but for some reason, something is nagging at me, saying that there is some flaw in Casey I can’t quite put my finger on. He ain’t no David Cook, that’s all I will say. Randy said he’s back to being the Casey he loves….Ellen said it was “fantastic”….Kara, despite her crush on Casey, said it was his best performance yet and that he looked like a real rock star…and Simon said he didn’t agree, that it was more like an audition performance and that Casey still needs to step it up.

Lee Dewyze sang “Beast of Burden” and it was really pretty good. In fact, I thought it was the best of the night up until that point (Lee went 7th). His pseudo Scott Stapp voice can be annoying, but there is no denying the fact that this kid can sing. Randy said it was like a Rob Thomas/Dave Matthews hybrid and that it was “dope”…Ellen said it was great but that she expects more from Lee….Kara said he’s growing as an artist faster than the other contestants…and Simon said he likes Lee and loves his voice, but that he hasn’t had his big moment yet. Whatever.

THE PRETTY GOOD

Didi Benami sang “Play With Fire” and for my money it was her best showing yet. It was kind of dark, and she really drove home the lyrical message, like “Don’t play with me, cuz you’re playing with fi-yer” with true conviction, almost willing us to believe she has a shot at winning this. Well, maybe not. Randy said it was one of Didi’s best….Ellen said Didi went astray but has found her way back in to this competition….Kara said that when Didi pushes too hard she goes pitchy but that she reigned things in for the most part last night….and Simon said Didi is beginning to show artistry but that she still can do better.

Andrew Garcia did not use a guitar this week and did a nice George Lopez-y version of “Gimme Shelter.” Seriously, I love this guy’s voice but his performance was just a tad corny and bland. Just a tad. Randy said he loves Andrew but that it was pitchy everywhere (not really)….Ellen said she thought it was Andrew’s best yet, but “what do I know?”….Kara said elements were good but she was missing the “connection” lyrically…Simon made fun of Kara, suggesting maybe Andrew should have driven a tank on to the stage, and then said that his performance last night was “in the middle.”

Siobhan Magnus was one of the judge’s darlings last night, but I didn’t quite get it. She did a dark version of “Paint it Black,” which played to her quirky personality, but for me it was missing something and her voice went off key a few times. Still, as she always does, Siobhan did an Adam Lambert scream at the end, and that’s all the judges remembered. Randy said “that was hot!”….Ellen said she loved Siobhan’s look and sound….Kara said there were flashbacks of Adam and it was the best interpretation of the night…and Simon said he agreed with everyone else, that it as the standout performance of the night. Um, I didn’t quite get it, but I still think Siobhan is awesome.

THE IN-BETWEEN

Michael Lynche kicked things off with a karaoke-ish version of “Miss You,” which was actually bluesy and cool in spots but mostly just okay. Randy said “you slayed it”….Ellen said “what’s not to love?”…Kara said Michael delivered the song with a “Stones swagger”…and Simon, bless his heart, didn’t parrot the other judges, but more so agreed with me, saying it was corny at times and bordering on desperate. There ya go.

Lacey Brown did “Ruby Tuesday” with a slight country twang and while I wanted to hate it, it really was the best I’ve seen of Lacey. Randy said he loved the arrangement, and while it wasn’t awesome vocally, he was pleasantly surprised….Ellen used the word “sleepy” but said she is still a fan…Kara said it was 50/50 for her and that there were pitch issues…and Simon said the vocals were okay but that Lacey is performing too much like an actress at times. What?

Katie Stevens took on “Wild Horses,” and I’m not sure what it is about this girl, but her voice kind of grates on my nerves. Randy said it was really good for the most part….Ellen said it was pitchy but that Katie emoted well….Kara said that while Katie is never technically perfect, it was good……and Simon said that it was the only week he felt Katie chose the right song.

Paige Miles did a twangy version of “Honky Tonk Woman” and it wasn’t too bad, definitely showcasing her strong voice more so than in recent weeks. But I was still kind of bored. Randy said it was alright but that Paige needs more energy….Ellen said Paige has star quality…Kara said Paige hit the big notes and added “you’re back”….and Simon said she did great despite having laryngitis this past week, but that it was old-fashioned in spots. Laryngitis? Are you kidding me? Major props for battling through that and not letting any of us know it with that perfornance.

Aaron Kelly did “Angie” and all I could write during his performance was “eh.” The rest of the time I was thinking about what I’m going to have for breakfast this morning. Of course, the judges have a collective chubby for this kid. Randy said “dude, you were born to sing, that was hot!”….Ellen said it was a great song choice…Kara said Aaron really connected with the song….and Simon said he 100% chose the right song and played to his strength. What strength, Simon? Being a wussy kid who can’t really sing but who keeps getting ridiculous praise from you guys? Okay, he’s not THAT bad of a singer, but he’s not praise-worthy, either.

THE NOT SO GOOD

Tim Urban did a cheesy reggae-laced version of “Under My Thumb” and it was incredibly boring, showing exactly zero star quality. Randy said he didn’t get it, that it was too bizarre a version….Ellen said she felt like she was at a resort….Kara said she liked the way Tim changed it up…and Simon said it was different but that it didn’t work and was a “crazy decision.” Tim defended himself and even laughed nervously at some of the criticism. But let me make this easy for you, Tim. It’s safe to say you’ll be packing your bags tonight and you can go on playing shows for your oversized family.

So there you have it. I have been harping on this not being a great contingent this year, but last night several of the contestants stepped it up. It should get interesting in the coming weeks to see who really stands out and has a shot to win. I still think it’s between Siobhan and Crystal, and I’ll keep saying that until someone not named Aaron Kelly or Lacey Brown proves me wrong.

I’m going with Tim to exit tonight, but don’t be surprised if it’s Lacey or Paige, who both seem to have nine lives in this thing. Let me know what you think and see you tomorrow with the results!

“American Idol” got down from 16 contestants to 12 last night, in effect reaching the “magical” Top 12 final round. From here on out, everyone will perform on one night and the results, with one person being eliminated each week, will be announced the following night. There were a few surprises last night, and probably two that America really got correct. As Seacrest would say, “dim the lights, here we go….”

The show opened with the Top 16 singing their ridiculous weekly group number, this week a Michael Buble song that I’m happy to report I’ve never heard before. Then Ryan announced that next week the contestants will be choosing songs by The Rolling Stones. I’m pretty excited about this….it doesn’t get any more legendary in rock than the Stones, and it should be fun trying to guess who will sing what.

Anyway, on to the results…..they had those 12 metal bucket stools set up, and Seacrest would be sending them there one by one as they learned their fate. Didi Benami, in. Siobhan Magnus, in. I hope Siobhan does “Gimme Shelter” next week, but there are probably 100 others I haven’t thought of yet. Next, Paige Miles and Katelyn Epperly to the front of the stage. One was going home, one was staying. Paige Miles, in, Katelyn, out. Then, since I missed Tuesday’s performances, I got to see just why Katelyn was booted off. Her version of Carole King’s “I Feel the Earth Move” as she sang her way out was just awful.

On to the guys…..Seacrest brought out Tim Urban, Todrick Hall, Lee Dewyze, and Casey James to the front of the stage. He went through them, one by one, talking about what they sang the night before and what the judges thought. First one in, Casey. Second one in, Tim. Vote for the Worst contingent rejoices, but Tim was not horrible on Wednesday even if he chose a tired song. So down to Todrick and Lee. Lee in, Todrick out. Well, this one I saw coming, and while I also thought Todrick was super talented, he wasn’t gonna win this thing.

Then they brought back two contestants from last season–Matt Giraud and Scott McIntyre, and they did a cheesy “dueling piano” version of Billy Joel’s “Tell Her About It.” It wasn’t that bad, especially when Matt sang and played, but Scott….geez, you can tell how bad he is when he’s trading vocal lines with Matt. Then Seacrest, while pimping both guys, calls McIntyre “Scotty the Body.” He calls everyone named Scott this, and it’s mildly disturbing.

Next, more results. Crystal Bowersox, in. Michael Lynche, in. Seacrest jokingly asks Michael if he will fit on the metal bucket stool, and Michael could care less if he breaks one right there on national TV. Lacey Brown, in. What??? Aaron Kelly, in. What????? Now I’m getting slightly annoyed. Really, America? Someone is going home that shouldn’t be.

Left on stage–Alex Lambert, Andrew Garcia, Katie Stevens and Lilly Scott. First up, the guys. Alex and Andrew. Alex had the best voice among all the guys, and Andrew was the dude who turned dance pop into cool singer/songwriter material. Andrew, in. Alex, going home. He tries not to cry, but he’s clearly bummed, and so am I…I liked both of these guys, but I think Alex going home is premature. He has a great voice but lacks the performance skills, which ultimately hurt him. Andrew will keep bucking the ordinary and doing things his way. Meanwhile, Seacrest asks Ellen DeGeneres if she has advice for Alex, and she says, “You’re so good!” Thankfully no more banana references.

So the final spot is down to Katie and Lilly. Katie is the young chickadee who has a big voice for her age, and Lilly the already-established quirky singer/songwriter. Katie, in. Lilly, out. I really was surprised at this, and especially surprised that she was out instead of Lacey or Paige. Lilly was also surprised, saying, “Lots of talent is going home tonight” and “I don’t know what America wants to hear.” I’ll tell you what they want to hear, Lilly. Pitchy cheeseball faux country music by nerdy boys like Aaron Kelly, and awful renditions of anything by Lacey Brown. Kind of bums me out, but those two won’t last long here and neither will Paige.

So your finalists America, as you chose them–Didi Benami, Siobhan Magnus, Paige Miles, Tim Urban, Lee Dewyze, Casey James, Crystal Bowersox, Michael Lynche, Lacey Brown, Aaron Kelly, Andrew Garcia and Katie Stevens. I see this as a two-person race between Siobhan and Crystal, and maybe Michael if he keeps getting Ruben Studdard type love from the judges. Maybe even Andrew if he gets his mojo back.

We’re on to the next chapter, folks…..see you next week with Mick and the Stones!
