Years ago, I was sent to review a concert in Boston. I can’t even remember who the headliner was now (maybe Tim McGraw?). But the opener for the opener was Keith Urban. I had never heard of him. I wasn’t familiar with any of his songs.  But about five minutes into his set, I thought, “Who is this guy? He’s amazing.” Seriously, if you’ve never seen Keith Urban live in concert, you need to. Put that on your bucket list right now.

The next day I went out and bought all his CDs (that shows you how long ago this was, I was still buying CDs). And I’ve loved him ever since. As I like to say, I loved Keith Urban long before Nicole did.

So I’m very excited Keith Urban is one of the new American Idol judges. I broke up with the show last year and didn’t even miss it. Not even a little bit. Not once. (And many of you know how difficult it is for me to break up with a show). But I really don’t know if I will be able to pass up the chance to see Urban on TV once a week.

This got me wondering, which new American Idol judge are you most excited about? Or does the recent announcement of new judges have no impact on whether or not you will watch the show.
