Wow, the tickets are already on sale!! I saw that show too vtlsc and figured the drive wouldn't be too bad for me to make... but September!! I can't plan that far in advance! Also, not a big Keith Urban fan here either, so if Kris ends up doing only 5 songs or something, I wonder if it's worth it for me to go. And the tickets are indeed pretty expensive. (Just checked the tickets web site. Do you know if the sections where it says that "tickets are not available for this section" are already sold out? If yes, then it seems it will be a popular show.) I have no clue what to do right now...

Missaddicted - I'm pretty sure the "not available" = sold out. This show was a big deal when it was announced a few months ago, so I'm not surprised it's selling fast. Country is pretty popular around here. We got a couple of seats in the grandstands tonight (section 205, row I, I think). If you do come down, you are welcomed to hang out/crash at our house. We live less than 5 miles from the fairgrounds.

Thanks vtlsc!! I'm still undecided though, I'm giving myself a bit of time to think about it.

Just watched Katherine McPhee on Leno. She will probably be on AI in a few weeks with a recent album release to promote...yawn...

Kris Allen and Allison Iraheta performed The Scientist today at some event for Oprah. It was just gorgeous. Even better, there is video of their rehearsal that doesn't have any background screaming/talking:

Can anyone make an MP3 of this?

vtlsc, try this link. I found it on Twitter.

That was awesome. I didn't see Oprah. Did they air the performance?

Wow, that duet was fantastic, especially the last minute or so. Sigh. This is the kind of thing I've been missing from Idol this year.

Thanks for the link to the video. That was beautiful. I love that song.
