Ryan Seacrest, 'American Idol' auditions hit Chicago

There was no need to begin lining up for "American Idol"auditions outside the United Center early Thursday. Aspiring singers were given their 30 to 45 seconds with "Idol" producers based on when they picked up their wristbands during pre-registration, which took place Tuesday through Thursday morning at the United Center. Everyone was likely to get a turn.
