"American Idol finalist Paul McDonald has suggested that he is planning to uproot from Nashville to Los Angeles. The season ten contestant, who became the first male to leave the competition last week, told Live! With Regis &amp;amp; Kelly that he liked the &amp;quot;good weather and good vibe&amp;quot; of California. Speaking about his plans for the future, he said: &amp;quot;Right now I&amp;#039;ve been writing a bunch of material and I plan on doing a whole lot of new stuff. I&amp;#039;m currently in Nashville but I think I&amp;#039;ll move to LA because it&amp;#039;s a good vibe and good weather out there.&amp;quot;  He added: &amp;quot;I think I&amp;#039;ll do that for a little bit and keep trying to write.&amp;quot; The singer also praised his fellow American Idol contestants, describing them as a &amp;quot;good group of folks&amp;quot;, saying: &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;ve become a family over the past few months. Everyone is supportive.&amp;quot; McDonald was sent home from the Fox competition on Thursday night after receiving the fewest number of public votes for his movie week performance of &amp;#039;Old Time Rock and Roll&amp;#039; by Bob Seger. He can be seen alongside the rest of the Top 11 on this summer&amp;#039;s American Idol tour.  The competition continues on Wednesday night as the remaining seven contestants tackle tracks from the 21st century, while former winner David Cook and Katy Perry will perform on the Thursday results show.  &amp;gt; Read Paul&amp;#039;s exit Q&amp;amp;A here "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
