X-Factor Audition Survival Tips!

X-Factor Survival Tips and TRicks

So… you’re going to one of the x factor auditions in the UK?

Firstly, WELL DONE! it takes a lot of nerve to follow your dreams!

I’m sure you’re wondering what the judges are looking for; how do you get through to the next round? How do you win the x-factor? Are there any x factor auditions secrets?

I received an e-mail from someone who knew I got through the first round last year, and wanted some advice about times, etc.

 

Here’s my reply:

 ”Last Year I was queueing there a couple hours at least, so get there half hour early or you’ll be at the end of your timeslot.

too early (before your time slot) and they make u go to the back of the queue.

BUT that was for the pre-booked timeslot auditions.

IF it’s the open auditions (i went year before), then i went after my gig (about 3am), with sleeping bag.
it was about 18 hours total that i was there.

in either case, take umbrella, layers (you’ll go from freezing to roasting), something to wet your whistle (seriously, drinks are pricey and tiny when available but they weren’t easy to get), and ipod with hypnosis track or something that gives total blockout or distraction (the hours seem like DAYS in there).
If you go in the middle of the night, get some sleep. whatever happens, don’t sing tired.

warming up (vocally) is essential cos you’ll go a bit dry from nerves.

If they get you all shouting ‘Ive got the X-factor’ don’t join in.
they do it for about 45 mins to an hour, and you’ll lose your voice. don’t do it even once. i’m sure you knew that already, though ;)

best of all, have fun and network with people!
Good Luck!”
