Idol Chatter & Voice Views

The Season 10 American Idols kicked off their summer tour at the Maverik Center in Utah on Wednesday night.

I haven’t seen a crowd count for the show, but it got a mostly favorable review from the Salt Lake Tribune.

The writer who covered the concert for the paper seemed most impressed by Stefano Langone,  Casey Abrams, Pia Toscano and Haley Reinhart.

Meanwhile, mjsbigblog has provided a complete set list for the three-hour-plus show. You can find that here.

Not surprisingly, Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina perform the singles they debuted on the finale — “Love You This Big” and “Like My Mother Does,” respectively.

Somewhat surprisingly, Pia is already performing her new single, “This Time,” which will be released Tuesday. More on that later.

The most pleasant surprise from my viewpoint is that the set list includes the “Moanin'” duet from Casey and Haley, one of my absolute favorite performances from Season 10.

Remember, the Season 10 Idols will be stopping in Baltimore, D.C., Philly and Reading this summer, so you’ll have plenty of chances to catch them on tour. Go here for dates and links to ticket info.
