American Idol Hits Jacksonville

Sunday August 10, 2008
"Congratulations! You’re going to Hollywood!"

If you’re itching to hear those words, then surely you’ve been belting out your best ’90s boy band ballad for weeks now, gearing up for the Wednesday’s American Idol auditions. So how about giving your vocal cords a rest, will ya? After all, the music business is just that - a business. And that means rules, processes and documents. If you don’t have your act together business-wise (hint: Do not, I repeat do not wear your dad’s early Aerosmith t-shirt hoping to score points with your back-in-the-day props) you’ll get booted before you hit the doorway to the audition room. Lucky for you, we’ve got the low down on all you’ll need to know for the big day: Where and when (not) to show up, what (not) to wear, what (not) to bring and so forth.

So, seriously-you gonna go for it? We’d love to hear from you. Leave us comment and we’ll send some positive vibes your way.
