American Idol Tour Starts Without McPhee

As the finalists from "American Idols Live" kicked off their U.S. tour Wednesday, word that runner-up Katharine McPhee was sidelined with severe bronchitis and laryngitis disappointed fans.

McPhee lost the final round of American Idol to Taylor Hicks.

If you were to purchase tickets to see the American Idols Live - would you feel cheated if one of the Idols didn't perform?  Especially one of the top two?
