'An Evening with the Idols' set for Saturday

Six Idol alums will take to the stage tomorrow night in An Evening with the Idols at the Suffern High School auditorium in Suffern, N.Y., in support of the Good Samaritan Hospital’s Chemical Dependency Unit. The former contestants include Ayla Brown (Season 5, Top 16), Asia'h Epperson (Season 7, Top 16), Kevin Covais (Season 5, 11th place), Brenna Gethers (Season 5, Top 20), Gina Glocksen (Season 6, 9th place) and Melissa McGhee (Season 5, 12th place). They will be joined by four local talent show winners, who were chosen earlier this year in an Idol-style competition.

Chris Richardson was originally slated to appear at the benefit but had to pull out due to a scheduling conflict.

Tickets range from $25-50, with a backstage pass costing an extra $20. Doors open at 6 p.m. for a 6:30 pre-show, with the show kicking off at 7 p.m.

I saw the show last night and was extremely disapointed that a Catholic hospitial would allow Melissa McGhee to get up and sing the song she did. It left me with a bad feeling and will make me think twice before going to another hospital event. Who ever ran this their songs should have to be cleared first to make sure it is apprpriate for the audience and children.

I also saw the show last night and was extremely disappointed about that and also that it started 45 minutes late-my kids were falling asleep by the end!!!!
