Event attendees had an opportunity to win signed copies of Blake's limited edition double LP “Heartbreak on Vinyl” scheduled to be released on August 24. Additionally, they were able to take advantage of the promotion on the new Android™ 2.1 Powered Samsung Captivate with the super AMOLED screen. Upon purchasing the new Captivate, attendees became eligible to receive two tickets to the upcoming American Idol Concert Tour at the Staples Center, on Fri., August 13.

Late last month Blake gave his two cents on the Idol judging musical chairs, saying:

"It's a sad day to read about Ellen leaving and rumors of Kara now leaving, too. Ellen will be sadly missed on AI. She added humor to the panel. If it’s true that Kara is leaving, too, there will be an even greater hole to fill. Like every great show that recasts its characters, the ones leaving will be missed and hopefully the new members will be embraced. I heard other rumors of J LO and Steven Tyler as potential new judges. I think this is what the show has been needing since I was on - constructive comments from huge stars who have made it doing what the contestants want to do. Britain has already done this and it's worked. I’m interested to see what the new American Idol will have to offer."
