[Ising4u93]

[OctoberSkies11]

[EXPRESS777000]

[Pharaohnomore]

loved the chick from Liberty...very sexy

[evanescence345]

the last guy made it but he lost on hollywood week

[t0nito]

I know where he would like to have that banana...

[harrillizer]

also right beside me was Pia Easley who was on season 7 and made it to hollywood, she said she chose the wrong song and didn't make it...i guess she didn't make hollywood this year bc i haven't seen her on the show yet but she was sweet and very soulful

[harrillizer]

the guy that sang tim mcgraw...later for another tv crew for the kc area sang Justin Timberlake's - Until the End of Time and it was off the chains...kid didn't even make 2nd auditions, he was tight, i was about 500 ppl in front of him in line

[bestvidsonline]

the girl with the black and whte strip tshirt from 1:30-2:00 appeared on the show

[TigerGirl243]

banana dude....

[pooshoodog]

I bet anything that when the guy who sings that wasting my time song goes to audition, simon will say, now your wasting my time, or something like that.

[TalithaK]

LOL this is awesome...the banana man!! haha

[getalife04]

2:05 I saw that girl audition she was TERRIBLE! LOL that is so funny the judges didn't even say anything at all she just left the room.

[Floralin]

ppl please post the audition vids , i m in Japan can't watch it yet . arghhh!!!

[loupwolfpower]

The guy at 3:00 why didn't they show him on the show??

[LittleApocalypse]

I think it's cuz he was to creepy.

[foundmyrosebud14]

5:35 FTW

[ellocia]

If the bannana guy wasn't so weird he would probabaly make it

[shlbegirl]

one of the student teachers in my grade went to hollywood from the kansas city auditions :)

[MissZiona]

That's great!!! Tell congats!!!

[JackieDawn1]

The girl at 4:43 sounds good. Did she make it?

[JJKluver]

i like the guy in the white shirt and bluetooth and shades, that sings the tim m. song

[JackieDawn1]

Did he make it through?

[ny11764]

i like the guy w. the white shirt n hat

[skkygirl]

At 1:52 the red and black haired girl behind him, hahaha I remember seeing her audition. Wow she was horrible.

[SugarIchigo]

[SuicidaliQakaSiQ]

that dude @ 6min was WHACK! lol..

[followurdream12]

omg banana man is creeeeepy

[jessiKON]

the second last girl (nicole?) sings high notes really well!

[unwritten123x]

that girl who sung 1st can SING!

[kewlgirlz22]

yea seriously!

[LexxxLuthor69]

That dude that sang the McGraw song can actually sing. I was sitting next to him while we were waiting outside in the dark. The whole thing is rigged tho. The judges were getting boo'd like crazy cuz they kept letting ppl who could actually sing go home and ppl who were there just acting stupid go on to the next round. All about ratings. Sad...

[beccajwachter]

i sooo agree! add a cowboy hat to that dude and he's the next big country singer! i hope he gets a record deal.

[ironmanbeatsall]

tim mcgraw dude is beast i didn't see him get in

[jleshae77]

haha that crazy haired colored girl was on there nd so was that banana man...btw people David Cook is from Tulsa, OK he just auditioned in Kansas City...and the guy singing Tim McGraw..GOOD GRAVY!!

[asdarkaswhite]

Just to let you know, David might have moved to Tulsa, but he grew up in Blue Springs, Missouri.

[xtriplethreat]

LMFAO BANANA MAN

[stomach16]

i went however im 16 and i had my cuzzin with me cuz my mom didn't want to stay out ther for 14 hours so they wouldn't let me audition :-(

[andyelde]

[xJonasGirl4lifex]

HOLY CRAP! at 1:46 the girl with half red hair was on tv lol she looked constipated

[MCEProd22]

[fearfulll]

music industry needs banana man, this time banana man should win

[kikimartini2479]

Me too.

[raptor619]

Exactly

[kissy570]

6:16 is my fav. =] TIM G <3

[XiDuf15xI]

I think the girl who wrote her own song around 4:20 was excellent! Love her style.

[melissap20]

5:55.... poor guy... he butchered Defaults song "wasting my time"

[ThenkYO]

aww there are a lot of good people.. but um the last guy is my friend! weirrd. hahaha. yayayaya!

[sarahrae2008]

that guy that sings tim mcgraws sng at like 6:50 is really good....

[dreamer945]

The banana man could be in musical theater! he's really enthusiastic :)

[XxForgivenAngelxX]

The First Girl && The Dude that sings Tim McGraw "I'm A Real Good Man" or W/e is AWESOME! lol

Also The Last Guy was Good.

=D

[AbbyVanGilder]

if you pause it at 2:16 you can see me in the blue strapless shirt holding a white purse. :)

[VI3TzKM]

lol good for you for auditioning hope u made it

[CrayonsAreCoolio]

[beatriz678cool]

the girl he interviewed first sounds good!!!

banana man sounds good too!!!!

[arbthebarb]

I was in shock when that guy with the tie (617) started to sing Tims song.

He's REALLY good!

[cantfindanothername]

ahh, I was hoping I would have seen myself by bannana man cause I was definitely in the area. oh well, I didn't make it so it doesn't matter. I'm either not good enough or just not interesting enough. that's showbiz!

[petelebu]

banana man lol, how gay was that?

[AznVi3tx]

5:50 he's out.

[FaithsFreedom]

The bananna man was kinda creepy.. o.O

[5554651]

most of the people on the video were pretty good!

[number1paulaabdulfan]

The girl at 1:14 was really good!

[horsruldaworld]

guy at 2:34 is weird...but funny.

[mileyfan0007]

yeah he was really funny!

[RAINintoTEARS]

wow a lot of people did well. but they never show them they always show the terrible people, I mean they are funny but I like to see good singers too

[xXAdreasaulaloverXx]

omg,. that guy has a guitar pick on his shirt and it says Pick jesus.. that shirt rocks XP

[Tibronics]

Word of Advice: PAY THE $10 PARKING OR GET TOWED. LOL

[csdk44444]

The girl at 1:08 is fantastic. The kid at 3:00 reminds me of the Dell kid. The girl at 4:30 and the guy at 5:20 are good too.

[MusicLover98765]

i couldn't make the 4 hour drive :(

[vietryc]

I LOVE MY HOMETOWN!!

[spencedenise]

1 2 3 test...

[beefcurton]

that banana dude pwnzz.

[audii37]

this is amazing.

:D

[tennisgirlv07]

whyyyyyy did the guy have a rotten banana in his hand

[ajerik]

fyi. the guy with a banana was actually recruited by fox to come to audition because he also auditioned for so you think you can dance and the producers told him to come here and he would be guaranteed past first round.

[YanaSupersta]

i love them all) very good

[cantoo1343]

im in two seconds of this video...lol

[xDucksAreFunnyx]

Really? That's awesome!!

[cantoo1343]

yea, im also in the video titled "American Idol 1" Im the girl in the blue. I didnt make it but you listen and tell me

[KristaLynn629]

Morman missionary??!!!?

are you serious?

[KristaLynn629]

Go Jesse James!!(white shirt and tie) You were the best one there. Dont forget about all your Karaoke peeps when you become famous. Keep singing.

Krista Milwaukee, WI

[skinlikeadoll]

i can't believe they let the banana guy through over people that actually have talent. guess that's reality tv for ya. i met so many people out there that blew my mind, but didn't make it. ...but girls dressed as cheerleaders and showgirls made it? laaamee.

[dadmonson]

THe thing is those people that dress up wacky they have to stay that way.

[ScottHoneymoons]

Way to go Jessee James, (guy in the white shirt & Tie) you did an excellent job! You should have been a finalist, we have seen you numerous times with Karoke...just keep on singing. You will be found just not by American Idol.

Scott & Jacqueline Milwaukee, WI

[tokiohotel983]

the very first girl was really good!

[greenandwhite2]

the last guy singing was awesome and very cute!!! LOVED HIM!!! I HOPE HE GETS IN!!! i was gonna audition but i got 2 more yrs til i can...i hate that u have to be 16!!!

[Hiett1]

The wisconsin Kid that did Tim McGraw Has a Exellent voice and is a great singer. Hope to see him keep trying if he dosn't make it in kansas. as A side note he did look a little to much like a morman missionary and and a Pop song may impress the judges more than country, even if his Tim McGraw is Flawless.

[shan12stones]

That guy with the sun glasses butcherd that Default song.

[brentboyens]

Hey great video man! I was there and after 13 hours they said I was to classically trained and wasn't pop enough for A.I :-(

[geebhatia]

aww that sucks. its so hard making it toeh audition room seems to be 25% talent 75% luck

[MochaChaiChica]

I like the guy with the white shirt and tie! This is a good video!

[djramsey]

Thanks Steve! Every where I turned people were screaming for me to snap photos and interview them.  It was craziness.

[sadida0404]

well played sir, well played.
