Not all of us American Idol Season 8 fans live in the US, and not everyone who lives in the US will get the chance to see our Idols perform live. So for those who won’t be able to attend any of the tour shows, I thought you might want to see the songs they’re serenading America with. I found the official setlist by hopping around forums and I placed them there, safely hidden behind the cut since there are some of you lucky ones who WILL see the show and would like to be pleasantly surprised.
