American Idol Auditions At State Fair

(Springfield, IL) -- American Idol auditions are coming to the state fair this year. They're being held Friday the 8th and Saturday the 9th from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. The famous judges won't be there, but anyone who makes it through this tryout will automatically advance to the next level. That means they'll be able to skip the big auditorium tryout where thousands of people usually show up.
