Idol Stalker - Watching American Idol

American Idol Season 8 Summer Tour Details

Posted: 02 Jul 2009 12:49 AM PDT

The American Idol top 10 from Season 8 will perform in their first show this Sunday (July 5, 2009) in Portland, Oregon and I'm sure their fans are excited to see them perform live. I never get to go since I'm up in Canada and they don't have any stops here (but they should - Canadians watch the show too!).

I had never thought about it but I read on E! Online that there are just two tour buses (one for guys and one for girls) but the guys have it a little rougher since there are just three girls on the tour while there are seven of them! Scott MacIntyre and Michael Sarver both complained that their bus was overcrowded with Sarver saying: "I just wish it was part of the budget to have a third bus. It’s like the testosterone tour this year. No one is looking forward to the cramped boys’ bus.”

In the article, they asked each of the 10 contestants about what they will be doing on the tour (lots of goodies so check it out) and it definitely sounds like it will be a tour with a lot of variety since each set is tailored to each contestant's style. During the season, I was so amazed by how different the contestants were from each other so I think it will be a fun concert.

We know that one of their group numbers will be “Don’t Stop Believing” but I thought that the info about Adam Lambert's and Kris Allen's sets was very interesting. Lambert will be doing a David Bowie medley and I know it's going to be incredible! I love Lambert and I love Bowie so I'm super jealous of any of you who get to see it. Oh well, there's always YouTube. Kris will be doing five songs including my favorite Beatles song "Hey Jude."
