Alright… Things are heating up you can feel the tension rising as the stakes get higher.  I think all of us need to prove our worthiness as Rock artists so the importance of the next song selection is amped.  INXS gave us some individual pointers, it's up to us to make adjustments, tweak our performances to show we’re not one-dimensional artists/ vocalists.

 

I realized how stressful this occupation is after the last elimination show.  For whatever reason I just completely broke down.  It was like I had all this tension built up and needed a release.  Once it started it just kept pouring out. 

As the stakes go up I also see a change amongst the cast.  J.D. and I are great friends but sometimes it's hard to figure out where he's coming from.  The more time I spend with him the more I understand.  When he lets his guard down he's incredibly brilliant. 

 

MiG has been an incredible help for me this week.  I learned a lot from him vocally.  He taught me how to break down a song and listen to the melody as I tend to rush things.
