I don't know if anybody else remembers this, but the idols weren't allowed to sing publicly on their trips home in some seasons past like David is doing right now.

Naja - I haven't followed many of the homecomings, but Taylor sang to a huge crowd during his.

I was thinking further back, Bonza. Carrie Underwood wasn't allowed to sing anything on her trip and broke the rules and sang the national anthem.

Ahhh, Naja - well - it's a great publicity opportunity - I'm glad they are doing it now.

Just a reminder, David C is supposed to throw out the first pitch at the Royals game tonight at 7 PM central, and sing Take Me Out to the Ball Game during the 7th inning stretch.

Thanks Naja, that was great.

So next week he will be singing a Roberta Flack, a collective soul song and they didnt say what the third would be.

Here are a couple youtubes of David C's first mini concert in Kansas City this morning before he left for his home town suburb for the second mini concert.

There are stories that the powers that be at Idol have finally had it with David A's father and have banned him from anything having to do with his son's performances, and they will only let him sit silently in the audience during show nights. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. I feel so sorry for David A, for his own sake I hope he loses. Because if he wins he will Never. Get. That. Man. Off. His. Back.

There is no way David A. will win. TPTB don't want to have to deal with his father. I really hope with the Sanjaya fiasco last season, and David A. this year, maybe they will raise the minimum age to 18.

dito on the "raise the min. age to 18" Lexie_girl

I've always thought that the age should be 18+ & would totally NOT allow a kid of mine to audition under that age.

Simon was just interviewed and he mentioned lowering the minimum age. That would be awful.

Ok dont laugh at me, I was so bored with David A's performance I didnt noticed he added a verse from another song. I think VFTW has it right!

It's a little foggy in my memory, but didn't AI have a "Jr. Idol" show one summer and it flopped so they never did it again?

That would show me right there America doesn't want to watch yet even younger kids doing Idol.

Plus, I just can't see Simon being able to rip a 14 YO to shreds on a bad night. I don't think under 18 should be on the show.

Ow to Simon's saying that they should lower the age. Remember AI Juniors? That lasted all of one season and how would the younger kids deal with the pressure and the rejection? Also, they'd have to fit in a certain number of hours of school a day. Somehow, I don't think Simon's prediction would come true. Naja, we think alike about AI Juniors.

I am pretty sure that Simon was joking about that, especially when you consider his added comment about having the girls cry. As I recall in years passed he wasnt happy about young contestants.

I agree, Maris. I think Simon was probably joking. I can even hear it mind in his sarcastic British tone...LOL

AOL report says David A's dad now banned from backstage. But they are quoting TMZ, so believe what you will.
