Mookie to perform at BuskerFest
Mookie is slated to give a special concert at Toronto BuskerFest on Friday, Aug. 22 at 6 p.m. at the CTV Stage at Front and Market streets.
Toronto BuskerFest runs from Thursday, Aug. 21 to Sunday, Aug. 24 on Front Street between Church and Jarvis streets (adjacent to the St. Lawrence Market).
“Canadian Idol finalist Theo Tams will make a special Lethbridge appearance Aug. 22 during Whoop-Up Days.
The University of Lethbridge student will perform on the Gas King stage on the fairgrounds, organizers say, in advance of the CTV show’s battle between the final four competitors. The Friday highlight is set for 7 p.m.
“Friday is always a good night for Whoop-Up Days,” said Doug Kryzanowski, marketing and events co-ordinator at Exhibition Park.
“It’s a great addition to our lineup.”
Tams is also scheduled to make a 45-minute main-street appearance in his hometown Coaldale, starting at 5 p.m. on 20th Avenue. He’s expected to sign autographs after a mini-concert.
A music and psychology major at U of L, Tams will visit family and friends in the Lethbridge area before flying back to Toronto for the Monday, Aug. 25 showdown. Canadian entertainment icon Anne Murray is scheduled as that week’s musical mentor and guest performer.”
Beatles songs night and judges choice.
Amberly is gone, yay!! But come on, Mitch still isn’t bottom three?
Next week – Beatles week and the songs are judges choice.
Then the week after will be Anne Murray, so Anne Murray week with no females.
Goodbye, Mark!! I really have to wonder why on earth Mitch is still there though? He’s the definitely worst one left, I can’t even stand to watch him at all. Why isn’t he at least in the bottom 3 this week instead of Theo and Earl?

Well, It’s finally Sebastian, he looked genuinely shocked last week when Katherine was eliminated instead. I’m sure he was hoping to be the one to go this week, after last week’s comments from the judges. “You look great…” over and over, by the time Farley was through with his comment, Sebastian just looked so completely frustrated.
Check out Sebastian’s Canadian Idol blog here.
Next week will be ‘Best of Britian’ week. The contestants will be performing Tom Jones songs. Tom will also be giving his own critiques of the contestants performances along with the judges (that should be interesting).

Mookie’s Mom Takes It To The Streets
“Election-style signs urging people to “Vote Mookie Canadian Idol” have started popping up on the lush and exclusive lawns of Rosedale in the last few days.”
“The signs are part of Mookie Morris’s Mom’s campaign in favour of her son, one of the final nine contestants on this season’s Canadian Idol. According to the Globe, her campaign includes placing signs in store windows and driving the Mookiemobile—the family’s minivan adorned with “Vote Mookie” stickers—around the town. And, by our count this morning, at least a half-dozen lawns in Rosedale are participating in Mookie Madness. The signs have also been spotted across the Don Valley in Leaside.”

I don’t understand why everyone keeps mentioning that “The Man Who Sold the World” as a little-known song, that’s ridiculous! Nirvana made that song even bigger (than Bowie) in the 90’s. It was huge!
