American Stars in Concert for the Holidays – Videos and Pictures
I don’t know if this ex-Idol business is all it’s cracked up to be.
With reports of slashed ticket prices for the current Christmas tour, featuring Diana DeGarmo, David Hernandez, Kimberley Locke and Chikezie, Idol Chatter reporting that the new Christmas CD featuring Idol also-rans like Vonzell Solomon and Jasmine Trias unable to move even 100 units its first week, and the cancellation of this concert, will the folks who put these projects together eventually come to the conclusion that outside of the die-hard fan bases, there is little interest in Idol losers once their TV time is over?
A thought to ponder.
In the meantime, I found some photos and You Tube performances of the Christmas tour, currently wending its way through towns and mid-sized cities, to mostly nice reviews. Watch the group perform a Christmas Medley in El Paso, TX, after the jump. There are more videos of the concert from Kaoschick98 HERE. The photos are from last night’s show in Easton PA.

Right now, there are a grand total of 82 people who were finalists on American Idol. Of them, there are only a handful I would pay to see – Bo Bice, George Huff, David Cook, Taylor Hicks – and maybe Clay. I am planning on going to see Ruben, Frenchie and Trenyce in ‘Ain’t Misbehavin’ when it comes to Syracuse in the spring. Just because someone was on Idol isn’t enough of a draw for me to shell out my hard-earned cash. It’s just not.
If an Idol that I like well enough comes to town and performs free, I’ll go! Big of me, I know!
Oh, I’m trying to get an interview with Anwar Robinson who is starring in ‘Godspell’ with Syracuse Stage. I’ll go see that over the holidays as well.
Off topic a bit… my work office was recently moved and now I can get FM radio again and only a couple of stations – one being the pop/rock station. I’m catching up on all the pop songs – they must play “Crush” five times during my work day and Jordin’s “One Step at a Time” is also in regular rotation. Daughtry’s still getting play as well. Today I heard Elliott Yamin’s “Wait for You” and Kelly’s “Behind These Hazel Eyes.” It’s interesting they don’t play Cook.
The gays can keep Kimberly Locke. I used to like her until I read her quote on Jason Castro. It was a stupid thing to say that made me think a lot less of her. I don’t think I will ever buy an album from such a mean spirited person.
As for the rest, I really hope they do well. I think David H is talented though I can’t imagine what sort of music he would put out if he made an album. And Chikezie has tons of showmanship. I really enjoyed him on the Idol tour. I think he should do something that plays to those strengths. Diana Degarmo has time to do great things. She was younger than David A when she did Idol so I think that she has done all that she has in the 4-5 ears since she did the show is great. I think she has a chance in country.
