But there’s no need to choose a favorite when both, accompanied by all eight finalists will tour with American Idols Live this summer. Portland is honored as the first stop on this extravaganza, with a Rose Garden concert Sunday, July 5. Each finalist has been given additional freedom to explore his or her own musi cal vibe in a show that encompasses both numbers from this year’s broadcasts and new jams. Top Idol Kris Allen says, “I feel like it’s going to be 10 little shows with 10 really talented people. It’s going to be incredible.” This individuality, coupled with the dynamism of a live performance, will create a concert that is far more than the sum of its televised parts. Allen also says of his upcoming album: “On Idol...I went the route of doing a lot of classic rock. So, I’m going to try to take the best musically from that era and make it mix with modern pop electronic production. It should be really different.” Our boy Glambert is also sure to be a driving force in this new foray into self-expression. He promises outlandish outfits to include studs, rivets and spikes - even a gender-bending, updated David the Guys" to kick the summer off right!
