Dreaming of "American Idol"

Early this morning, I had a dream about "American Idol."  I had a dream where I was talking to my friend about the show.  I spoke with such excitement about the FOX program I believed in what I was saying.

Later on, the conversation turned to where I could help donate to a fund for former "Idol" contestants.  I said I wanted to donate to former contestants who were down on their luck.  It sort of got to a point where I wanted to be the chair of that fundraising drive.  That's not me in real life.  I'm more of  a donor.

Later in the dream, I told my friend that I loved watching the show.  Something inspired me about those people performing live in front of an audience and chasing their dream.  Who knows what lay ahead for them.  Just like in the music business, it is up to the people to decide.  I guess I could be one of those people.

In reality:  I'm watching the season premiere of "American Idol" right now.  Today's the first of two days worth of two hours of auditions and golden tickets.  I'll be watching it again on Thursday as I'm sitting here in my edit bay working.

This is the final season of "American Idol" as we know it.  I hope this is a good one.  I'll watch as much as I can and I'll be interested to see if the next winner will be the next superstar in music.

Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson, and Jordin Sparks are my top three breakout superstars from winning on that show.
