iim 14 and me and my friend would liike to audition. what do we have to do?

please get back to me X
hey,
Im 14 and i auditioned for the xfactor 2008 in london.
Honestly it was a total joke, it is not a talent contest atall and please dont go in with your hopes high. They are looking for entertainment only, no matter how good you are. I have learnt that if you have as much passion as you say you do to go on these things then go out there and look for studios, or any “genuine” auditions you can get. That actually are looking for musical talented people.
I am going to carry on writing my own songs, and singing in concerts and getting experience. There are more odds that you would get spotted singing in a shopping centre than getting into the xfactor.
I know im not going back next year! The amount of people there was astonishing, and you only get seen to a producer, it really isnt worth it!

I would like to apply for him to enter the 2009 auditions. I know you wont be sorry, he will make Briton proud.

Every one that has heard him sing, said he should enter the X Factor.

hello,
pls has anyone received their xfactor 2009 audition letter? cos i havent got mine yet and March has run out already. Am wondering if they will send it to everyone or will they decide who to invite for audition? Maybe am just a little too excited but i want to find out if others are feeling the same way. where will the London auditions be?
Me, too. Applied straight away and haven’t heard anything bk. Pls let me know if anyone’s got London audition dates. Thanks.
Hey,
I’ve received my letter. I think I got it on Saturday.
Not sure whether to go or not now though, i’m a little nervous :-s
Good on you! Is it for London,Manchester or Birmingham? I guess its normal to feel nervous so you will be ok. Anyone out there who has got the London dates and venue,…. please share so that if we dont receive the letter on time, we could at least show up to give it a go. Am still waiting for mine.
Cheers!
Hi guys
am applying for my first time this year, has taken me 5 years to go for it lol. But now is the time, really want this, love singing, love the whole thing. Feel great when I sing and would love to entertain others. I havent had my letter yet for London auditions, but I may go to the open day not sure, as apparentlt the producers are very hard to get through unless ur extremely good, or extremely rubbish (for entertainment) not to put u all off, just really want evry1 to get through and so u can show ur full potential to simon and the others straight away, as wiv the appointment auditions u have to clear 3 rounds with the producers. Good luck all, if any1 knows when the open day is in London, plz let me know. Thanks all. Luv Tara xxx

hey, got my audition comfirmation ages ago for Glasgow, but after reading the above i think i might give it a guess. i think i’m not good enough to make an impression but not so crap that they’d put me on for ‘comic’ value. oh well, good luck to anyone who gets through etc : ) but lets face it where are all the ‘winners’ nowadays anyway? boo to generic reality TV x
give it a miss**
soz : )

hi just woundering, i missed to apply for the auditions in time, can i still turn up and audition. please could u let me know. thank
Hello,
Are the auditions at all these venues open auditions? I applied online, but never received a letter, and I am hoping to attend the auditions at Glasgow on May 9th.
It’s hard to tell from the site, which says nothing about a letter being mandatory, but instead states that:
“It’s not too late to audition so join the crowds at Birmingham City Football club at 8.00am this Easter Sunday.”
“Can’t make Birmingham? Check out our other audition locations and dates:”
Those direct quotes taken from the site makes me think it’s an open audition.
Also, judging from comments made elsewhere, it would seem that it’s several days of auditioning, perhaps back to back, once I get to Glasgow. Is this the case, even though Glasgow is only slated for one audition date? I only ask because this would affect how I schedule my flight and hotel. I wish everything was clear.
Thanks in advance for your response.
