In tonight's American Idol finale, Ryan Seacrest mentioned where they'd be coming for auditions this year - and they're coming to Pittsburgh for the first time.

Oh boy. I do think that they showcase the cities they visit quite nicely. However, I am cringing at the embarrassing auditions...

Do you think it will be like karaoke at a yinzer bar? That would be too funny. The auditions will probably go like that. Yinzers all over the place from those little local bars.

Pittsburgh has a decent history of producing singers. Not as strong as our history of producing NFL quarterbacks, but decent nonetheless. I'm sure they will find some quality talent. Perhaps the next Perry Como?

We churned out Jackie Evancho so why not the next Scotty McCreery as well, right? My money's on BrianTH becoming the next American Idol.

I may have been interviewed by the local news media about this very topic!

It will certainly be a good thing for tourism. Lots of people fly to the different cities to audition. Those people will need hotel rooms and food.

I wonder where they will film? They seem to favor a place where they can be in front of a big window with a nice view.
