Kris has a college show scheduled at Augustana College in Rock Island, Illinois (near the border with Iowa). I think it is intended to be a student event, but don't have firm info on whether the general public can go. Anything we get (and there's normally not much with college shows) will go in this post.

Updated 8/21/2017: Turned out to be a great show, and we got the premiere of a cover of Oasis' Wonderwall (an audience request from a student and a long-desired cover for me). Partial set list and mini-videos inside. Many thanks to @SnapCracklyPop for preserving Kris' instastories for us.

Kris is joining fellow winners Jordin Sparks (Season 6, 2006) and Ruben Studdard (Season 2, 2002) at an open audition for ABC's reboot of American Idol, taking place on Thursday, August 17, at the Disney Springs portion of Walt Disney World in Florida. If you are interested in auditioning, you need to pre-register and follow the directions here.

Parking is going to open at 4 AM and Disney Springs' venue can hold up to 4000 people. Sounds like they are expecting a full crowd (click that link for specific event information)! For those of you who are just going to check it out, I'm not sure if you will be able to observe auditions or not from that link. Disney Springs' entry itself is free; it's a really big open air shopping and dining center. Click here for information on visiting Disney Springs.

Kris is participating in a charity benefit (free but donations encouraged) in a northern Detroit suburb to benefit two local foundations. As of now the forecast looks good, but they did book Kris!

Updated 8/14/2017: Looks like a great night for a show, and already enthusiastic tweets and some video! Full set list too (changed up from last night). Team Kris finally revealed the name of the bassist who's been subbing for Torres. Whatever else we get, I'll put after the jump!

Preview:
Kris is doing another free gig for Musicians Corner. The last one sadly got canceled due to a forecast tropical storm that petered out. Let's hope the forecast works out this time!

Updated 8/5/2017: A rainy day turned into a mild and dry night, perfect for a summer concert under the moon. Have the set list. Kris premiered a new mashup for Monster with Childish Gambino's Redbone. Don't think we will get video - although check out IG stories posted last night by Muscornernash and teamkrisallen (remember, those go poof and disappear after 24 hours). You need to view those on your phone using the IG app. I do have a few photos. Whatever we get will be after the jump.
