American Idol auditions already underway today

While you and I go on as if today is any other day, hundreds of thousands of people are auditioning for American Idol in San Diego. For some of them, today is their one chance to become a major star. For others, it's their one chance to get on television by being a very, very bad singer.

Even though the auditions episodes of American Idol are hilarious, the producers of the show probably loathe this time of year. We only get to see a handful of the extremely good or extremely bad contestants, but they have to suffer through a sea of mediocrity. Only the people with a gimmick or real talent actually get to meet Randy, Paula, and Simon.

After San Diego, auditions move on to Dallas, Omaha, Atlanta, Charleston (SC), Miami, and Philadelphia. You can find the schedule here.
