Canadian Idol Baby!
So ya, the good thing about having a BLOG is that you can update whenever you want. I don’t have to feel bad for not updating in a while. And so I move on to my actual update.
As you can tell, I’m getting ready and pumped up for Canadian Idol. I am auditioning this Saturday and I can’t wait. I got my video camera (that I got off eBay) last week and I’m all set to capture the fun and drama of the whole event.
I’m going to be leaving between 4:00 and 4:30 am to get in line, and hopefully that will help me to get an audition that day instead of waiting until the next day to actually sing for them. For those of you that don’t know how it works, here’s a brief summary of my previous years for you:
1. Get in line at about 5:00-5:30am.
2. Wait in line until they are ready to register contestants which is usually 9:00am.
3. Get registered and sit around and practice until your number is called. (This can take quite a while. The second year I was there, I didn’t audition until 6:00pm that night. That makes for a long day.)
When you finally do get your audition, there are a few rounds you go through first.
- In the first round, you sing for the executive producers and if they like you a lot then you can jump the second round completly and be skipped strait to the third round with the celeb judges.
- If they (the executive producers) think they need a second opinion, then they’ll just advance you to the second round and you’ll need to sing for the producers.
- Then if in the second round you get a pass, you go to the third round with the celeb judges. It’s the third round that all you catch on television.
Anyway, thats how it works up here in Canada. I’m getting exteamly pumped and singing my ass off right now, just practicing. I hope you all root for me and wish me the best of luck.
I’ll update you all after the fact!
