I just returned from my audition for CBS’s Rockstar Season 2. I got there about 9:45am and I’m home at 10:30am. There were not as many people as I saw lined up outside yesterday. I’d say there were only about 10 people set for the 10am slot.

We signed in at the front desk..handed in our paper work…then they handed us a large envelope with a number on it (mine was 399). We then had to hold up the envelope and someone snapped our picture with a digital camera and waited our turn to get up on stage. We watched as some other people were on the stage. I wasn’t nervous, as I thought I might be but once I was there and got comfortable with my surroundings, everything was pretty easy.

Everyone there was told that we could only do 1 song rather than the 3 they told us to be ready to do, so I did my most Rockin’ raspy tune. [Take Me Under] I’ve sang this song about 200 times in my life so it took no real thinking. I was on automatic. Most people did their originals which was a relief to hear so I didn’t feel weird about doing mine. I had no flubs and I did the song as best as I could have ever done it.

Most people before me seemed a little quiet on the mic and here I was belting out so maybe I stood out. I did get applause after and a couple "Woo’s" from one girl judge as I was playing. That was nice. She was probably the Paula Abdul of the bunch who likes everything ..or maybe she really liked me In any case, I did my thing and the rest is now up to someone else.

They didn’t let anyone know either way if they got it. Instead, they video taped the audition and will probably look back through it all and decide from there. I actually felt pretty good about it though. I thought I sounded pretty good but I’m wondering if everyone who was trying out thinks the same thing. And so, that’s that. Now I just wait and see if I move on. Hopefully, I’ll know either way soon.

The other people auditioning seemed pretty nice but I think we were all sizing each other up. There were a couple people I listened to before me that were doing real quiet and wispy songs. I’d like to think I have a little more advantage over them but I guess time will tell.

Anyway…that was my audition. Not much else to tell.

Oh, they did have last season’s Rockstar:INXS show muted and playing on the TV monitors as people were trying out. Overall, the room had a friendly vibe and  it wasn’t stiff like some other auditions I’ve been on.  Out of my hands now…but my fingers are crossed
