'American Idols Live' Tickets On Sale Saturday

WANT TO SEE David Cook arrange, David Archuleta emote, Carly Smithson belt and Ramiele Malubay do ... whatever it is she does? Then, Saturday's your day! It's the day that tickets to the "American Idols Live" tour go on sale across the country.

Thrill! to the kick-butt Beatles covers by Chikezie. Swoon! as Jason Castro beams his baby-blues your direction. Puzzle! over the appeal of Brooke White. The whole Top 10 will be there. Even Kristy Lee Cook.

The tour is sponsored by Pop Tarts, which I thought was a description of the Idolites rather than a sponsor at first glance. This relationship clearly was not checked out by Fox's Department of Irony.

Our homeboys and -girls in the D.C. area will have two chances to catch the Idols — both in the middle of the week, sadly: at the 1st Mariner Arena in Baltimore on Tuesday, Aug. 12, and right downtown at the Verizon Center on Thursday, Aug. 14. Tickets for both are available starting at 10 a.m.

Our friends across the country can check the handy list below, ganked from americanidol.com. It includes the date, city and venue for each show and the local time at which tickets go on sale.

Enjoy.
