Every once in awhile Scotty came close to an "Elvis" sound, and I would imagine that he and Lauren will both do well in the future. I would imagine that the others also will do well in the music business.

AND Did anyone see the singer that sang with Bono? The little cute one. His name is Reeve Carney, 28 years old. I will bet this will be his big break out, and you will be seeing a lot more of him.

Did anyone else think Scotty looked like Alfred E Neuman???? ( The kid on the MAD magazines)
