Help me strategize, please!

I'll be leaving tomorrow, and I'd like some advice on two separate things before I go.

1) I'll be doing MNSSHP on Sunday, and I'm looking for tips, specifically on the meet and greets. Ideally, I want to meet Jack & Sally, Tarzan & Jane, all the princesses who are going to be out with their respective prince in tow, Jack Sparrow, and (maybe) the 7 Dwarfs, as well as finding time to catch the parade and villain show (I'll skip the post-show meet depending on what the crowd is like). Any potential game plans?

2) At some point, I'd like to head to DHS and audition for AIE, and I'm wondering what song to sing, both the first and then the song list choice (tried it last year, and didn't get past the first audition). Currently, I'm leaning towards Beyond the Sea followed by something that's a faster rock, but I'm open to suggestions. I'm generally a classic/ alt-rock guy, doing well at karaoke with stuff like the Police, Queen (though I've cut back on a lot of Queen as I'm not quite as able to hit the high notes like I used to), Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters, and others. (I won a contest last year with a combination of GnR's Sweet Child of Mine and James' Laid, though I'm not sure if the latter is appropriate in WDW, even if it is just the first 30 seconds in a closed room with the casting director. )

Any advice on either topic would be greatly appreciated!

1.) Get there as soon as it starts. Skip the first showing of the parade and villain show. The first parade gets massive crowds leaving other stuff less crowded. Run around and get all the meet and greats that you want. Watch the second parade. Be in the Dwarf line at least 1 hour before the end of the party. They close the line and if you are not in your out of luck. It was a solid 45 min wait when we went toward the end. We were there with 10 minutes to spare and saw them turn many people away. Skip the candy lines, you can buy what you like at home. If you really want to do everything, go twice!

2.) It's Raining Men!
Disco Inferno or Love Shack

Many days, the AI people are out there begging people to come in and audition, so you shouldn't have a problem being able to do it. I have no idea what songs you can select, sorry. I like The Police and Guns n Roses, too.

All I know about M&Gs during MNSSHP is that the Dwarfs line and the Jack & Sally line are both long waits. People start lining up for these things like 45 minutes before the party. All the lines are long, but those two are ridiculously long. I'd probably try to hit the Dwarfs early and the other one late...and squeeze the others in as I could.

When my daughter did the audition, they allowed her to sing the song she wanted first, then she had to sing a Disney song the lady chose for her to sing. It was from The Little Mermaid.
