SOLD OUT

Congratulations to the Detroit area for being the first to sell out a show this tour!

Updated December 4: This show sold out so fast that the usual fans who go and get videos for us in Detroit weren't even able to buy tickets! I guess that's a good problem? Kris will just have to play Detroit again. In the meantime, some videos and photos after the break...

Preview:
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!

Show and List Preview:
Kris appears with other American Idols of yore (some good ones IMO) at a benefit concert in Detroit to support World AIDS Day.

Post Show Update:
As we saw from more recent seasons of Idol, some of those Idols aren't reluctant to tweet, so they made up the bulk of our list. ;) They all were in good voice for a good cause. Plus a DJ from Detroit's AMP Radio gave one of our Kris fans a little tour scoop. Post updated with set list and media (some videos) after the break...

Back to the USA for a run through the midwest. This show has had a little more online buzz than some of the others. As far as the list goes, I do expect to be adding people as we go tonight so please do refresh from time to time.

Throwback Thursday: August 14/15, A Day for Epic Apparently

On every (well, most) Thursdays we take a look back at Kris Allen's past performances to remember the good times! Since I've been a little remiss lately about this, thought I'd load you up with a few videos.

Usually I start this by searching the date and Kris' name in YouTube. When I did this with August 15, so many goodies came up! So - in reverse chronological order, here's August 15 in Kris Allen World (excluding 2012 and 2013 - nothing to report for these years).

First, August 15, 2011, Clarkston, MI: Kris debuts You Got a Way during a concert opening for Lifehouse! Here's Altrus01's awesome video! (Click here for the setlist and more media.)



Then, August 15, 2010, (well technically August 14 but the videos were uploaded on the 15th!), at the Indiana State Fair, we got this little piece of Kreith goodness from supox30!


This was the first time they performed Jack and Diane together. The Indiana audience did a great job of singing along! And of course at the beginning we get Kris telling Keith he's hot (:DDDDD) and at the end, a big old epic Kreith hug! (Lots more media and the full setlist for Kris here.)

And August 15, 2009? Kris was still touring with the Season 8 Idols, in Hamilton, Ontario! Here's a awesome but terrifying video (when you think about the giant cavernous hole that opens up behind him) from Lupin788 of Kris performing the Killers' All These Things That I've Done!


Enjoy!
