We watched AI last night (2/8) and saw Brian numerous times but NEVER did we get to hear him sing It also wasn't really clear if he got cut or not. His reactions would lead me to believe he did but, then again, he may have been really happy??? Can't tell.

Now Brian, of course, is Buffalo's hometown guy. Jason Horn, is MY hometown guy Sarah and I were totally thrown for a loop when we saw his audition. As it turns out not only is he from my hometown, but he also helped my mother last March during my father's funeral. How weird is that?!? As with Brian, we couldn't tell from the show whether or not he made it through to the next round. My mom called us bright & early this morning to tell us that the local paper had a big spread about him and he DID make it. How far, naturally, we don't know but at least he made it through the first cuts This is the first time my mom has ever watched the show LOL The judges tend to annoy her and she wanted to know who let that "idiot" through (that idiot would be "Crazy Dave"). Mom has got a lot to learn about the quirks of American Idol

If you missed Jason's audition and would like to hear it, you can see it here:
