American Idol Tour Glendale AZ Review By Idol Fan-Addict
Who says they always save the best for the last? American Idol’s Season 7 top ten finalists kicked off their tour in Glendale, AZ at the Jobing.com Arena.
The show was everything and more that I could ask for especially for an Idol fanatic (or Fan-addict) like me. It was a blast!
What I love and admire about the concert is that you could take everyone from your baby to your grandma. Seriously, the show caters to every race, to every age, and plays a variety of all genres of music.
They begin by counting down each Idol contestant from the first one voted off to our Idol winner “David Cook“. Everyone did well. But here is my little run down of how each of them did.
Although I was never a huge Chikezie Ezie fan. I have to say that he was a great opener and impressed me more than he has ever in the season. It seems he has stepped up his game dramatically with his smooth falsetto and soulful runs. Ramielle Malubay was next and although you could sense her nervousness and see there was plenty room for growth it was all too fun watching her give it her all and doing what she does best. By the way she loves to shake it if you know what I mean.
Next Michael Johns wooed the crowd and came across as very very likeable. Seriously you would have thought this guy was in the top 3. And all the while I could hear whispers in the crowd of how he got voted off “too early”(Agreed here). His performances came across as confident and yep this guy is ready to make his album. He is on his way my friend.
Kristy Lee Cook came to touch Arizona with her country filled voice and everyone joined her by waving their hands from side to side as she sang “God bless the USA” and warmed the hearts of Arizonans.
But there came Carly Smithson and wow all I can say is that her vocals are pretty much amazing. Although I wish there was better song selections to go along with those vocals. Carly is a true crowd pleaser and sang her guts out. By the looks of her she is seasoned and ready to go on with her music career.
Brooke White gave it her all and AZ loved to the fact that one of their very own was once again in the spotlight. To me she could have done without the song “1234” but Brooke can’t go wrong here. She is Arizona’s very own Idol sweetheart!
Jason Castro was up next and started out with the song that we all love and that he has got the best rating on “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”. He definitely could speak up in talking on the microphone but hey he has nothing to lose with the thousands of female fans he has here.
The chicks went absolutely wild for him.
Then came Syesha Mercado looking as gorgeous as ever and performing as professionally as we will ever see her. Her singing was almost immaculate and she wowed the crowd with all her songs.
Next there was no need for an introduction because David Archuleta is absolutely loved by all the teens and 20 year old women who would love nothing more to give him a hug. His fans had everything in good fun from “Recount” posters to “CTR (choose the right) David” to Mrs. David Archuleta t-shirts. All I know is the crowd went wild and it was extremely loud that even if this shy kid wanted to say something you wouldn’t even be able to hear it. You could tell he started out with a little bit of nervousness but that he worked his way up into being the delight we all know he is.
Last but not least our winner, David Cook came and again the crowd went bananas and all you could only hear were screams and whistling mainly by the cougars. Seriously I thought my ears were going to fall off. Cook has a genuine and cool way with the people. Even letting us in on the good news of his brother’s tumor growth stop. If hasn’t become evident as to why he won you will see it at one of their concerts. But after this concert I figured out everyone loves them some David. Some love one more than another, others couldn’t choose that day. Bottom line it is well worth seeing and it made AZ hotter than it could ever be.
