Ok American Idol fans. Bo's song he did by himself, no music was a song by Badlands. Who all here have heard of the band before? I have their first two albums on cassette but I bet there wasn't 15 people in the audiance that night who knew who Badland's were.

great blues-rock band. take 70's Aerosmith and mix it with a small southern flavor of Skynyrd. Add some GnR and a big helping of the Blues and you have Badlands. It had Jake E Lee on Guitar. some of you might remember he played with Ozzy for some time. Eric Singer went on to drum for Kiss after Eric Carr passed away. The singer is very powerful with great range.

I've heard of Badlands before.....old band though....Bo was incredible.....In my opinion, he won it that night.....he sang 3 totally different styled songs and he nailed them all. Can't wait for his CD to come out....I will buy it the 1st day it goes on sale.
