Holy carp! That piano player was insane! Everyone else was pretty lame, including the show, the host, and Alice Tan.

And the Incredible Vid or wahtever his lame-ass name is. God he sucks. He was a regular on Comedy Central's short-lived Make Me Laugh and was horrible back then. no talent.

I don't know what was more painful - watching this show, or having the doctor jab me in the eyelid with a needle five times during my surgery yesterday.
The only redeeming factor on the show was the bouncing piano guy. But I knew he wasn't going to win because single mothers of two who sing RESPECT badly always win this crap. Rigged. Rigged, I tell you.

I thought the piano guy was really different and deserved to win. I don't think it was rigged or programmed because there were parts of the song where he slowed down to catch the balls and it came out off rhythm. Also, during the very end of his second performance, he hit some wrong notes right as the audience was clapping.
My guess is that it was faked. He probably programmed the thing to play the right notes no matter what key he hit. Any Casio you buy off QVC can do that. On the other hand, if it was legit, then he definately deserved to win
