o and blacksheep, you talk about how this judging was unfair, but how do you think the show choirs felt at rockbridge when your choreographer was a judge? does that seem very fair? o, and the judging obviously wasnt based mainly on vocals, since pizzazz won best vocals, best ballad, and best diction...but got 3rd place. satin n lace and oak park were right behind them, but obviously their vocals weren't the only thing that got them 1st and 2nd place
Thank you, doogsixes77
Pleasant Hill was a BLAST! WOW I had so much fun! senior year is starting to look up......I'm so so so grateful we made finals-I was pretty concerned. And I honestly couldn't care that we were 6th in finals-so what? We made finals, and the scores for prelims and finals were pretty close together. We went and changed a lot of stuff after prelims and actually went through with the changes in finals, so we couldn't ask for anything more. The only goal we had going into PHill was to place higher than Warrensburg......and you could say we did that
Neosho-Love Doctor. wow....your guys can shake it, haha
Rockbridge Mixed-wow! pretty cool.....Kate! awesome solo! and Taylor too!
Rockbridge Girls-WOW! Best girls choir I've seen since Nashville 2 years ago....
Oak Park-I'm so happy for you! our choreographer is pretty cool, isn't he? ;)
Parkway-YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!! Best ballad all the way!! I love you guys!!!
PHill-ahhH!!!! Veryveryvery cool, glad I got to see your show!! an amaaazing solo Jeff-were you in all-state choir last year, by chance?
Thank you PHill! You all host the most fun competition that I've been to in 3 years....I'm going to miss it a lot!

ok blacksheep it's kinda going too far. I'm gonna be honest, your making satin'n lace feel pretty crappy. Yeah ya'll were really good, but give the girls some props. It's not every day a girls group makes finals, much less does good. And what about pizzazz, their vocals were AMAZING!! and you have to admit, their dancing was pretty sweet too. I'm not saying ya'll didn't get shafted or jipped or whatever, but I think that the judges did what they did for a reason. at least you guys made finals, what about the other 16 schools that didn't make it at all... just be careful of what your saying
I dont really want to get into this all I want to say is this..
SATIN N LACE Was AMAZING!! hahah props! for Making finals and placing high it gives us other girl groups Hope!!! but I do agree with the fact that Nevada should have placed higher and New Score... but they didnt you cant look back on what didnt happen you need to focus on the future and how you can improve and get better at Everything... once you have done this then you are tottally unstoppable!
ya blacksheep you're not getting the point of show choir competitions. isnt this entire thing started around and based on singing? if there was no singing, there wouldn't be show choir. so how on earth can you say you guys deserved to be in the top 3 this time when your vocals were so weak? your dancing was fine (same moves as all of the other groups, nothing that truely set you apart), your set was good (good songs and closer), and your scenes/costumes were good, but do you truely believe you deserved to score so high? oak park was amazing, they had every concept of a show choir (the singing, show, and dancing) down. they were so awesome, i'm so glad they came this year and did so good. and satin n lace were amazing, their vocals this year blew me away, i've never, any year, heard a womans group that good. also, pizzazz may not have costume and set changes, but i think that their amazing vocals and creative dance moves makes up for that. you need to stop being a sore loser and figure out a way to improve your singing so that you can do better next time, because with this immature attitude, you're just making your school look bad. please don't forget what this sport should be about... having fun, performing, and making friends (from all schools). don't be a jerk.

im bitter about last night still this morning so whatever im about to say is probably gonna make me sound like an jacka$$.... but. i think the judging was terrible! not only for us but for other groups as well. i cannot believe some of the groups that beat us. nevada should have gotten 1st or 2nd. and i think we should have been 1st or second too. everything was based almost solely on vocals. i mean i think that a freakin swing choir could have came and just stood there and sang in a concert order and just moved their arms now and then, and if their vocals were good then they would have won. i mean i think show choir needs to be about the show. if i wanna hear ppl sing then i will go to a choir concert. and i know that our vocals are our weak point, but our dancing was so good.
I didn't come this this competiton, but ALOT of competitons you will go to are going to be heavily based on vocals. A spectator will come to a competiton and will notice if the vocals are strong/weak, good/bad.
Like you said... its SHOW CHOIR. Yes, you say your dancing was "so good" but your vocals are your weak point. OF COURSE they are going to notice it, and going to mark you down.
People need to accept what they get, and improve what their "weak points" are.

Good job to everyone. Placings were exactly on. It looks a little like the judges did their placings based more upon singing ability, and I felt that they were pretty much dead on when it comes to that. Hope everyone had fun!
wow, everybody did SO GOOD!!! i am not even lying when i say that yesterday was one of the funnest days of my life. I met so many awesome people, i saw so many old freinds. I cheered for EVERYBODY... oh man, it feels like the day after christmas..... :0( I so proud of everybody, everyone worked so hard!!! Thanks everybody for making my senior year or show choir SO much fun, and something i will NEVER forget!

LoL..I just had to say that to BlackShee's comment. I would have to say I agree about the head hunting thing. That made me laugh. It was an upset, but hey, all that means is that we are going to have to step up this weekend. I think a lot of Nevada people are really stoked about this weekend. It'll be awesome! I know I'm really excited about this weekend! I also just wanted to say GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE! I'll be cheerin' for everyone I know. It's a lil' upsetting though that it's all in the auditorium this year. 'Cuz of our backdrops and everything, and it gets really crammed in there with all the people. Well..latta!~Ash
