American Idol: "Ghastly Country Fair"

By J. Harvey Well here I am. Please join me on what is honestly my first time watching American Idol. No, really. I realize it's 2008 and the world watches this dog-n-pony show. But I was always under the impression it had ruined the American music scene forever. Except for "Since U Been Gone". That's just a hot jam. I've done my research and we're down to 12 pre-packaged pop finalists to root for or hate. I'm going to start off hating them all, and maybe one will grow on me. In the meantime, I'm going to hate on Seacrest and adore Paula's dysfunctional ass. Ryan Seacrest makes some intense speech like it's the moon landing. Is this common? He's such a self-important queen. I wish his teeth were crooked. It might make him more human. Oh, it's their new set. It's very Dinah Shore variety special. I hope they have a troop of dancers that will come out in gold lame and disco! We get a whole tour of the set. The band's on like a balcony. Will that be acoustically sound? The female audience is mobbed around the judges, so if Simon says something really bad about a panty-melter they can turn on him and rip him to shreds with tiny French manicured tween hands. I like an element of danger. Ryan introduces the judges. Douche, drunk, catty douche with protruding nipples. Do I have to name them? Simon's square head is making me uneasy. Was he in an accident with his bike? Here come the Top 12, styled by American Eagle and Hot Topic! Oh my god, they're going to be killing the Beatles this evening. Even more so, I wish that Mark David had hit Yoko so John would be alive to put a stop to this! Seacrest narrates a mini-doc on the Beatles. Well, Lennon and McCartney. Apparently no one's every heard of "Taxman" or....the one song Ringo must have written? "Octopus' Garden"? I forget. He's the douche of the Beatles anyway. More Idol after the jump!

Detailed Plans for ABBA Museum Revealed

In case you didn't already have a good reason for a visit to Sweden, now you don't have an excuse not to. The ABBA museum is set to open in Stockholm in the summer of 2009 and will feature a multi-media experience, displaying instruments, rare memorabilia and costumes from the quartet, that shot to international stardom during the 70s with such hits as "Fernando," "Dancing Queen" and "Waterloo," just to name a few. 6,500 square feet and three floors will be filled with items provided by the four members of the band, who experienced most of their commercial success during the years of 1976 to 1978. Along with Graceland and Dollyworld, this is just adding one more stop to my list of places that I'll eventually have to visit one day. In case you've managed to forget why ABBA's totally awesome, check out this classic ABBA, Oliva Newton John and Andy Gibb collaboration after the jump and you'll be reminded once again.
