DR RonP re: GREASE.
The part i don't get about bringing back matt and ashley is that their singing is so weak. That's the part that surprises me most. If they were stronger vocally then i think i could understand bringing back 2 people who the fans like (they couldn't know who the fans would like).
I wonder if they think that the reason these two are weaker singers is merely because they do not have the experience.
I believe they "think" they're weaker singers because the "proof is in the puddin'"! To wit, they ARE weak singers. Compared to the rest of the auditioners, they're strictly amateurs. Neither sang a song that showcased any vocal strengths they may have. If either had a powerhouse voice, "much" could be forgiven. But last night's vocals were dismal, compared to the rest of the men and women there.
For Danny, I'm pulling for Austin. For Sandy, I'm undecided.
I'm thinking someone behind the scenes believed that Matt and Ashley might improve sufficiently during competition and with an opportunity to work with vocal coaches on a daily basis.
Only time will tell....if it hasn't run out already, that is (we'll know when the voting results are announced).
