Is Casey the bearded dude that went last? He is my favorite...
The C&W singer with the low voice will make it to the big leagues...not sure if he will have enough following to win Idol...

Yes, he seems to be the most true musician they have ever had on the show.

I had a feeling the guys would blow them away, and it wasn't even close. Very strong group of guys and weak group of girls.

Agreed, the guys are stronger this year. I did think Lauren and Pia did a good job. The rest of the girls are pretty equal and don't really standout.

The smiling Jackass is my favorite. I'm kinda disappointed the blond chick didn't make it. She was nice to look at.

Seems like a lot of talent this year.
Glad they got rid of Carrot top and Kim Jong Il.
Pia impressed me, but I have to support anyone that will sing heavy metal on AI.

OMG, that is hilarious!
I think Casey and Pia are the best. I do have a soft spot for the smiling jackass.
*forgot to mention James, I thought he was one of the best last night.

Thought Casey and the guy that sang Paul McCartney were the best last night. I still like the smiling jackass but I just wasn't digging his song last night. I'd never heard it before so that is probably some of the reason.
I think Thia Megia goes home

I was pretty happy with the bottom 3 and didn't really mind if any of them went home.
*Really odd that Casey is in the hospital again, hopefully it is nothing serious.

Some website is reporting that Casey has a bleeding ulcer. Supposedly he had a transfusion a week or so ago. Hope he gets well. He is entertaining.

Looks like they were right:
Casey Abrams Undergoes Blood Transfusions
Friday March 11, 2011 10:30 AM EST
At a time when he would surely like to be focused on singing, American Idol contestant Casey Abrams is dealing with a health scare.
The singer, who was absent from Thursday's elimination show, has ulcerative colitis, a source tells PEOPLE.
The condition, which causes abdominal pain and cramping, was treated at a hospital in Los Angeles, where Abrams, 20, received two blood transfusions Thursday night.
"Hey guys, thanks for the well wishes, I got some nice fresh blood in me and feeling better," Abrams Tweeted Thursday. "People at Idol & Cedars are treatin me real good."
It was the second time Abrams visited the hospital while competing on season 10 of Idol.
One thing Abrams didn't have to worry about was being eliminated in absentia: the singer, a favorite of the judges, was deemed safe during Thursday's results show.

This weeks bottom 3 was pretty predictable. I wasn't that impressed with any of the performances, but I think Steffano was one of the best this week.

I still really like Casey, but sometimes he looks psycho when he sings. My bottom 3: Steffano, Haley, and Scotty (I know he won't be in it, but I think he should be)

Websites are saying it will be a shocker tonight. So, maybe one of the favs is either going home or in the bottom 3.
Personally, Thia or Haley needs to go.

Wow, you weren't kidding! I was shocked Casey was the lowest vote getter. I'm glad they saved him.

I had the bottom 3 right tonight, but I wasn't sure who besides Naiema was going home.

I almost threw up when Paul got put in the bottom 3. Glad the other 2 are gone though. Haven't like either one yet.

I think my favorite is Durbin. The guy is seriously the second coming of Robert Plant.
But Pia and Lauren are really the only other 2 with talent.
