Anyway, I've saved my replies for the end of the Indy Season...
FC SINGERS!!! You have had a phenomenal year. Your win at Ben Davis is exactly what ISSMA Is about. GC Mixed, GC Single Gender, GC Concert Choir. Do not take this 2nd place at state as a loss. Carmel had an INCREDIBLE show, (and I was sure they'd sweep, even though I love you
Your heart and individual performances pushed you over the edge of "Crisp clean and flawless" to "real performance". After Ben Davis You managed to put a fighting fire into one of the most elite choral programs around, The Counterpoints. They may have bested u in Choreo, but to take Vocals at state, against such a formidable opponent, proves that you deserve the powerhouse recognition you receive year after year.
I am so proud year after year to have been an FC Singer. It may be another "State Championship" for North Central, But u got em once. Where's the tie breaker? heh.
I love Indy show choir.
BTW, I didn't pay a lot of attention this year. Where was Lawrence Central?
there is nothing to explain this. i saw every group, and have seen most multiple times this year. i would never want to diminish other groups accomplishments. but the small mixed outcomes are very undeserving for about half the groups in attendance.
It was a very interesting outcome. I missed many of the groups in the afternoon, so I can't vouch for anything. It certainly was an exciting State Finals!
