I haven't posted in this thread, but decided to come out of hiding today.
Jason is the best friend of one of our dear family friends (who was in the audience last week - which I have to admit was fun to see). Anyway, he thought he was a goner this week, and frankly (from what we've been told) was kind of ready to go. He tried out for AI as a lark, never thinking he would make the cut. Once he did, he has gone along for this very strange ride, never thinking he would make it this far.
Y'all he is your typical college kid, extremely involved in his fraternity at A&M (Aggie Men's Club - a Christian fraternity). He is a great kid, really sweet and unassuming, who is in over his head and kind of freaking about it. His plans for his future did NOT include a musical career - he is a really good student and planned to finish his degree. Now, with having to do the tour and whatnot, he's in somewhat of a quandry.
So, the hateful comments are painful to read. He will breathe a sigh of relief bigger than yours when he gets "the boot".
