American Idol has been to L.A. before for auditions and the city has historically given us some pretty impressive talent.  Season 5 runner-up Katherine McPhee audition in Los Angeles as did Season 8 runner-up Adam Lambert.  So, hopes were high when Idol Season 10 rolled into L.A.  Were there any contestants causing the Earth of quake?  WBKR Idol expert Steve Thompson reviews last night's episode.
