The idol is back. Yes Bo Bice is back. The American Idol runner-up made his first appearance after underwent surgery last month in Nevada on Sunday's 'American Idols Live' benefit for Hurricane Katrina.

On top of that Bice also has written a special song for the benefit concert in Syracuse, N.Y., called "We Can't Change This World," about which he said "I'm talking about we can't change this world if we can't change our minds. The first step is realizing there is a problem."

Also performed at the concerts was American Idol winner Carrie Underwood and the other eight Idol finalists. "It's a very happy thing that we're doing to help people. When Simon Fuller suggested the idea of putting on a special charity concert to help those in need, I and all the Idols on tour were happy to help," Underwood commented.
