Crystal Bowersox and Aaron Kelly are just two of the American Idol season nine Top 10 heading out on tour next month.

They’re both excited to meet the fans, sing in their own styles (without being judged) and are even looking forward to the tour bus, although Kelly’s mom will be riding along as a chaperone (Kelly is a 17-year-old minor).

The only draw back for Bowersox is that she has to leave her 1-year-old son, Tony, at home. But, she tells HollywoodOutbreak.com that he’ll be well taken care of.

A must have on the road for Kelly? A batch of Sour Patch Kids, but both claim they’ll need water balloons to bombard each other’s buses.
