American Idol... or no?

Alright, so this year American Idol is holding tryouts in Denver. When Zach saw this he emailed me and was like, wanna go try out? I thought it was funny and so we started talking about how fun it would be to go downtown and see all the crazy people who are dressed up and trying to get on TV. So Zach's whole point is, if we are going to go down there anyways, we mine as well try out just for the heck of it.

Well, apparently American Idol wants to eliminate as many people as possible to begin with. In order to try out you first have to register (on Sunday) where they give you a wrist band. Well, you have to keep this wrist band on until Tuesday, which is the day of the auditions or you will be disqualified. Silly... considering you are expected to keep it on for 2 days!

And what's with them holding it on a weekday? Hello, we don't want to use one of Zach's personal days to try out for a show that we really aren't trying to get on. And, you can't bring any kids with you under the age of 5. So do they think a 7 year old has more patience than a 3 month old? I don't get the rule.

So anyways, it's looking like we won't be trying out just for the heck of it because American Idol just makes it too tough to do that. And on top of everything, if Zach or I made it to the next round, it's not like we would go. Zach has work which is a MILLION times MORE IMPORTANT than some silly show. And I have an adorable baby who I need to stay home with.

Anyhoo... boo to how hard American Idol makes it, because this would have been fun. But, we will probably stop by and see all the crazies that night anyways.

(Just for the record, we actually think if we did go we would end up making it all the way to the finals... and then tying for first place... so you would think we would put forth the effort but, hey... we just figured we would give everyone else a chance.)
