I never thought I'd ever watch this show or be asking this on here..but..one of my friends just made the final 12 guys on American Idol. We are all shocked and freaking out here in Richmond,VA. I am asking my Jamily friends to support my buddy...Elliott Yamin. He could use your vote. Trust me this guy has talent and he is a awesome singer. You may have seen him already, you may not have. Tune in and see for yourself. I know I may get flamed for this, but if supporting a good friend and his dreams is so bad...flame away. Thanks.

VOTE FOR ELLIOTT!!

    We don't usually watch Idol, but thought we'd check it out. He is a good singer. Good luck to him. Very nice of you to support him. We don't vote on the show, but wish him well. We have visited Richmond, it's a beautiful city, and also have relatives in VA. :)

    Thanks...his brother is actually my best friend. Richmond is nice. Not to big and not to small. I have enjoyed the almost 9 years I have been here. Thanks for responding. If you decide to vote...well...thanks again.

    I can just imagine genuine fans of music checking this board out through curiosity and seeing some of the shit on this page...

    American Idol, someone who doesn't know how to spell battle...

    it looks like a fuckin backstreet boys forum.

    Right...later dude. I guess I'm not a "genuine" music fan..way to play the stereotype. For all you folks that understand what supporting your friends is about, you can check out his profile here...

    I can't stand American Idol, but Richmond is my home so I might have to watch and vote.
    I can't promise anything if he starts singing 98 degrees or new kid blah blah blah B.S.

    What county is he from??
    Henrico, Hanover, Chesterfield, New Kent???

    Henrico ... Thanks!! His style is kinda old school R&B ..He can do a mean Stevie Wonder. We went to karaoke one night and he blew some folks minds.

    I've only watched 2 shows ever, the last 2 actually, and Taylor Hicks just blows me away. I know he won't win as his style is not popular, but damn is he an awesome singer and harmonica player.
