American Idol auditions

Our very own 'Idol' contestant Josh Davis has reported that things inside of Texas Stadium are hot, really hot. They've sat all the contestants on the side facing the sun, much to his chagrin. He waited 20 minutes inside before anything even happened.

And then they broke into chants saying "Everything's bigger in Texas" and "I'm going to be the next 'American Idol." Then there was a huge singalong of "Let the music play."

"We repeated the chorus no less than 30-times," he said. "Over and over again for the camera."

Only a few people have been let in so far - maybe eight as of this posting.

"A lot of people are getting kicked out very fast," he said. "Some are crying."

As for his chances, Josh still thinks his 'California raisin' costume will be the winning ticket.

"They might give me the boot," he said. "But I really think there's not a lot of sideshow people or people who are goofy, so I think I still have a chance."
