I agree that Stringz is the best vegas fit.

I would/could sit in a lounge & listen to Eli for hrs though.

So tonight it is over and I am sort of relieved. It has been a season, but not as fun or exciting as the first, but maybe that was because of who won the first season (for me).

GO STRINGZ!!

Hi everyone.

I agree Stringz would be a Las Vegas draw for sure. I love Neal Boyde but I don't think Vegas might be his genre.

The tenor is good looking but if I heard too much of him I feel like I'd get a blood clot. He's just too much. Of course that's just my taste.

Mom and I are just tuning in to Knight Rider. The network gave a lineup of tonight's shows, including the finale of AGT. The ad ended with KITT saying he shall audition next year, as he has an "in" with one of the judges.

I really thought they could win this thing.

I am not unhappy with the final two, just thought Stringz would win.

I love Eli.

Ok, it's between Eli and Opera Dude (I always forget his name).

I think I'm the only one watching. Ketchup, are you still here?

yeah, I was sort of surprised. I respect Neil's talent, for sure. I just didn't think he'd win this.

ETA: And Jerry said there was only a 1/2% difference between the 1st and 2nd place winners. Very close!

Eli has a career, no matter what. I really think all of the top 5 have careers.

OMG...I'm with Maddy (cept it was my sofa lol). I felt Nutin' But Strings would win but I SOOOO wanted Eli Mattson to win. I adore him. I'd even pay cash money for his CD--which hopefully he'll still get out. I loved him from his first song. Best Walking in Memphis EVER! Then when he took off his hat and was adorable too...well come on he has it all!

Now I'm FURIOUS I missed the finale hence missing voting in it. I just am shocked out the outcome and really sad Eli didn't win.

BTW Sharon looked beyond amazing didn't she?

I'm happy for Neal. He has a true talent, I love his humility and love for his mom. He will be a sensation with the proper hoopla behind him in Vegas.

WTG Neal!

Yes she did Lurk. I am an Ozzie family fan. I loved being taken in to their family values outside of the Ozzie stage frenzie when they had their reality show.

Stunned! I thought Nothin but Stringz would win although I hoped it would be Eli. I appreciate Neil's talent, just didn't think he would win.

I thought it would end up as follows:
5. Donald
4/3. Emily and/or Neil
2. Eli
1. Stingz

Good luck to Eli, hope you get the career you want and IMO deserve.

Neal E Boyd (his full name). I'm glad he won, cause he does have an amazing voice, but I really thought Nuttin but Stringz would win.

I'm glad Eli did NOT win, however. I got tired of his doing Elton John covers... if I closed my eyes he sounded very close to Elton John and he needed to be himself.

Yep it was a SHOCKER... I also thought that Nuttin But Strings was a shoe-in. Also shocked and saddened that Queen Emily went before Donald. But on the whole I like them all... although I was rooting for Queen Emily and also for Stringz. ITA I expect they will all have careers.

What was a real pain was that the reception was terrible here on both the tv in the living room AND the tv in the den. Must have been a storm or something somewhere. The entire show was barely audible and the visuals were marred too. It looked like when a video tape is all scratched and screwed up. Horrible. I didn't know if this was everyone's reception, so I felt really bad for the performers who we could hardly see and could barely hear!

I was greatly surprised, I thought Stringz would definitely win, but Neal E Boyd does have an amazing voice.

I think we misunderstood, however, about the Las Vegas thing, after hearing Jerry Springer last night. I think the contract is for 1 show only in a couple of weeks. We'll see Boyd at the Met, not in Vegas.

I fell asleep about 10 minutes into the show and actually dreamed I was there for the finale... When I watched the show this morning, it sure was a little different than I had remembered...LOL

I was rooting for Eli all season. I sure hope he gets a good record deal. I just noticed during his montage why he wore his hat for so long. When he started the competition, his head was shaved and it wasn't a good look for him (they showed a quick glimpse of it). I think it would have cost him votes.

Congrats to Neal :-)

Last year, what's his name (the ventriloquist) parlayed his single tiny contract into the giant contract he has now in LV. I'm not so sure anyone else in the top 5 this season could've done that.

Terry Fator (the ventriloquist) is very talented, humble and captivating in person. We saw him in a sold-out show in FL in April.

I am not a fan of opera, but Paul Potts from Britain's Got Talent moved me much more than Neal did. I do wish him the best, though. I want to hear more from Eli.

Makkie I want to hear more from all 5 of them. I hope we can follow them in youtube or whatever. I would love to hear Potts and Boyd together. I think that would be awesome. I think it's doable, since they are from essentially the same International TV program, with the same producers...

Terry Fator. Dang, I love him and can't believe I drew a total blank on his name! And yes, he is one majorly talented man!
