The city of Nashville has such a rich history of music. It only makes sense that it will be host to a round of American Idol auditions.

Registration for the American Idol auditions began yesterday at 7 am at the Bridgestone Arena, and will continue until tomorrow, Saturday July 17 at 8 am. Auditions will begin on Saturday. If  you would like to audition, you need to get down to Bridgestone Arena NOW. There was already an estimated 10,000 people in line yesterday. There’s no telling what the line looks like this morning.

The show will not release an official count to how many people actually showed up to audtion until they are over. But you can bet it’s a lot. So if you’re looking for fame and fortune, maybe it’s time for you to shut your computer down and join the ranks!

Do you have what it takes to be the next American Idol?
