2010 Tour Reviews
07.02.2010 Billboard
American Idols Live! / July 1, 2010 / Auburn Hills, Mich. (Palace of Auburn Hills)
And while the 33-song revue, weighing in at two hours and 50 minutes (with a 20-minute intermission) was both exhaustive and exhausting, thinning out a significant portion of the crowd at the Palace of Auburn Hills in suburban Detroit by the time Season 9 champ Lee DeWyze hit the stage, it did establish that some of this year’s top 10 merit consideration.

Bowersox, DeWyze, crew kick off Idol tour at The Palace
American Idol Live kicked off last night at The Palace of Auburn Hills before a crowd of about 7,500 people — mostly teenagers and mostly female — in the 14,000-seat venue.
07.02.2010 Detroit News
‘Idol’ summer tour lacks star performer
The signs were visible even outside the building, as the parking lot was far emptier than it is for a typical Palace concert. And inside the venue, the entire upper deck was curtained off, a surefire sign of a dud concert.
