Guesses as to who will be in the final two? Prediction: Kris Allen and Adam Lambert. Also, love Noah, the guy who wants to be a superstar. He learned “The World’s Greatest” in a week…and he’s from Rawanda…and doesn’t speak English. Craziness. Continue reading

Save the Music: Collegiate Style
After the University of Illinois Concert Choir finished the last note of Shenandoah, finding a dry eye in the first row was nearly impossible. No, people were not crying because they were feet away from celebrities. Tears were shed for a very different reason. Titled “Zum Schluss: A Farewell Concert,” the Concert Choir’s spring concert … Continue reading

Rascal Flatts Unstoppable
Rascal Flatts know their fan base. Each CD they release features a painful love ballad, a very country sounding song, and the ones full of morals and life lessons.
