American Idol Finale Party

SAVE THE DATE for the much anticipated American Idol Season 7 Finale Party.  The party will be Wednesday, May 21st.

It is a DRESS UP LIKE YOUR FAVORITE CONTESTANT OR JUDGE FROM AMERICAN IDOL party.  There will be prizes for the most creative and/or unexpected costumes.  (you don’t have to come dressed up if you don’t want to)

For all of you closeted AI fans, now is the time to show your true colors and make yourself known to society at large!

If you have any ideas for things we should/could/would do to make this party awesome, let me know.

Thanks,
