Who will follow in David Cook's footsteps to win the next coveted American Idol title and a major recording contract? The eighth season of American Idol kicks off on July 17, 2008, so start warmin' up your vocal chords!

Audition Checklist

If you're 16 to 28 years old, then you're eligible to audition for AI. But those of you who are under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian and bring a completed Guardianship and Medical Authorization for Minors form, which you can download here. As well, bring two pieces of identification, like a birth certificate and a school ID card, and a completed Release form that you can download by clicking here. Be prepared to sing a song of your choice, but it must be a cappella (without music). If Simon, Paula and Randy like you, you'll be called back and asked to sing a song of their choice - good luck!

    Dear Dish-It in the forums

    Hey guys do you ever have to sit alone at the lunch table because nobody wants to talk to you? Well that happens to me all the time but I don't mind it because I am a  quiet and peaceful person so I don't do everything in the world just to become somebody's friend and what really bothers me is the roomers that people spread around school it's not right and people try to act cool by doing silly things  and can get in trouble by the teacher by doing it.
