Kent, love the appraisals!

What would they have thought about:

- Lou Reed
- Neil Young
- Joe Strummer
- Alex Chilton
- Iggy Pop
- Kim Carnes, for that matter
- and, the man, Tiny Tim?

I pay to see Simon Cowell humiliate Michael Bolton!

Latest Rolling Stone mag says it ain't gonna happen. Says Macca has declined two times previously. Thank god.

January 30, 2007 -- Rolling Stone

No American Idol for Paul

The Beatles' digital debut, along with the reissues and the Cirque du Soleil show, mark a prominent re-emergence for the Fab Four.

"It's all loosening up with the Beatles this year," says Ken Warwick, executive producer of American Idol, which is planning a 'Beatles Night' for the current season, in which contestants will sing Beatles songs.

But the Beatles will only go so far.

Despite Idol producers' claims to the contrary, Paul McCartney will not be a guest judge.

"They called,' says a source close to McCartney, 'and we declined--as has been the case for the past two years.'"

Hendrix wouldn't get through the door.

Why don't they ask Spinal Tap to judge?

I'd watch then, if Tap judged. That'd be a hoot!
