{Expanding on a tweet from this a.m.}
Last night, moron American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi weighed in on contestant Danny Gokey's rendition of Aerosmith's Dream On, citing that she would've preferred some "early Aerosmith", such as Cryin' or Crazy. Yeah, that early Aerosmith from the 90s, right?
Tighten, DioGuardi: Aerosmith formed in 1970 (the year you were born), and Dream On was released on the band's eponymous first album from 1973.
Secondary tighten goes to Gokey himself for shredding the final notes of the song, ruining the climax. To his credit, it was a noble attempt, but well beyond his range.
{and never you mind that the Tighten Up Report sometimes watches AI}
See the performance here (DioGuardi's comments unfortunately excluded):

Jesus - when did American Idol get so budget? Nice of them to get the guy who tutored me in geometry a purple shirt and a vest to sing karaoke in...
