O I HAVE A QUESTION: WHAT DID EVERYONE THINK ABOUT THE SHOW YA KNOW THINGS WE CAN IMPROVE ON??WE ARE ALWAYS UP FOR SUGGESTIONS
your vocals were amazing but the only thing that brought it down seemed to be some of the nervousness in the soloists. hopefully that will come along with more practicing and more performances
This weekend we attended the beaver creek invitantional so excited to finally show off our show. Although we placed how we werent expecting i know that we put our best out there. If we can even say that we entertained 5 people..or if we can say we changed peoples minds about us, we know we did our job.
I want everyone to know how much fun we had there and every group was entertaining and should be really proud of what they did this weekend. Beavercreek i want to thank you for giving us the BESTTT hosts ever in the history of hosts! those girls were awesome. Everyone from beavercreek was so nice to us and we really appreciated that.
thanks again for having us! and congratulations to the finalists!
*sigh* " border="0" alt="ermm.gif" /> ok .. where do i start? um.. ok so Beavercreek was a blast for me. I'm so glad that I was able to experience this competition. I know that Euclid really really really enjoyed it. Even though we didn't place as high as we prayed we would, the competition was an exciting one. 7 out of 17 choirs is still good to me over all, so i'm not that bummed about the results & it was our 1st competition, so there's room to improve. Thanks to all those who believed in us and supported us. i also wanna say congrats 2 Dekalb, i wish i cud hav watched upfront instead of on screen, but ya'll still looked very nice and i heard the great vocals. Congrats to Northrop too. I was upset that I didn't get to see you guys perform AT ALL!! o0o0o0o i was so mad.. but people told me that you guys did an awesome job, so hoping only the best for your further competitions. o & 1 mo thang b4 i stop writing my whole life story .... thanks to our WONDERFUL hostesses from Beavercreek ( who i also didn't see perform), you both were so nice to us, i know we were a lot to handle at times but it was all good in the end ok now i'm done
WWWOOOOOW NATE! I GUESS U WERE SERIOUS ABOUT POSTIN ON HERE AS SOON AS WE GOT BACK, LOL " border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> ... anyway, i'm wasnt too depressed about the results! but the fact that we got to perform, and see all of the other groups perform, and have so much FUN ! i think the fact that we didnt get into finals was just what we needed, motivation to do nothing but work even harder ! I'M SO MAD I DIDNT GET THE CHANCE TO SEE ANY OF THE OTHER GROUPS THAT MADE IT TO FINALS , (besides edgewood) ! but i heard everyone did FANTASTIC!(not a word i use often)... but i look forward to seeing more of you some time at either Cuyahauga Falls, or Twinsburg(MY FAVORITE, FUNNEST ) and congrats too all of the groups who performed in finals!
p.s. anyone see me in the gym? i was the one in the black NY hat, white shirt, and black faded jeans, and doin the Cleveland Shuffle wit my brother (Matt McKenzie) (just so you guys know a lil more about me and will be able to recognize me in the next 2 2/3 years )
p.s.2. oh! and i was also the one who sang the second solo in "Is You Is Or Is You Aint", the one completely outta breath from the opener!
p.s.3. dangit!!!! i forgot what i was gonna say in this one!!! (how bout not talking so much, Ben?)
OK SO I BURST OUT INTO TEARS WHEN I WAS UP THERE WITH MY WONDERFUL DANCE CAPTINS WHEN THEY DID NOT SAY OUR NAME FOR FINALS. I REALLY DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO. BUT CONGRATS TO ALL THE GROUPS YALL DID A WONDERFUL JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A WONDERFUL SEASON
Nitro: Great! I thought your outfits were amazing and really brought out the theme of your show and music. The opener was very beautiful in a spine chilling sort of way. I loved the song choices. Choreography was very clean, but maybe not energetic enough. The choreography seemed kinda slow at times, but I understand it was designed to be smooth and flowing.
Northrop: Wow! Who would've thought Bon Jovi would be popular this year. I love all the numbers, they were all so energetic and creative. The choreography was very unique. I thought the guys number was awesome, but at time people weren't together with there moves. The vocals were great, they had the ability to blow hair dry and the softness needed to draw the audience in. You guys did great at romancing the audience.
I unfortunately didn't get to see Kettering or Dekalb any throughout the day. Although I hear Dekalb was just the same old awesome Dekalb like always. I'm sure they deserved to have the Grand Championship!

what about the women's comp? anyone know those results and the shows for both the mixed and the girl's groups? Thanks so much
There wasn't a girls comp and a mixed comp. All the groups just competed in one big comp. But the Dekalb girls' group was .5 points behind Edgewood after the morning was over.

I just wanted to say that I was at Beavercreek from Lebannon's prelims performance to the end of finals and that Euclid Varisty Chorale was my favorite show all day. I definitely had them in finals and actually had them down for a potential best vocals award. Their show was very original and the most entertaining of the day, and I was very confused as to why they weren't in finals. I see a lot of you guys post on here, and I saw how sad some of your girls were after the prelim results, so I just wanted to lift some of your spirits, because you guys did put on an awesome show! The auditorium was buzzing the second you stepped off stage because that performance was so awesome I never thought I'd see a Linsday Lohan song performed in show choir it was really great! Also your boys were the best dancing boys in the entire competition! Congratulations and good luck to you guys the rest of this season .
Aww, whoever wote that thank you so much! You have no idea how much people saying things like that means to us, especially after yesterday. Obviously we were really upset with the results, but knowing we really entertain and that people really enjoy our show and support us, so again thanks so much, it reeally helps us feel better about what happened
Ps...does anyone know the website for the professional pictures that were taken at beavercreek? Thanks =>
Congrats to Dekalb on your Grand Championship! You were very entertaining! A few things surprised me yesterday, particularly the finals results, but most of all the fact that Bishop did not make finals! It actually shocked me. I thought they were excellent. But i'm not a judge so it doesn't really matter. Nitro, I really liked your show, especially the opener, it was really haunting. Euclid, however, had my very favorite opener of the day! I loved it!
Even though i'm sad that was my last time performing on Beavercreek's stage, I had an absolute blast yesterday! Congrats to all the groups yesterday and good luck with the rest of the season!

Figures...I figured he was either REALLY wrong or he was just joking. But I had to believe it because there has been crazier stuff that has already happened this year. When Buffalo Grove and Totino Grace aren't making finals, you know it is a crazy year ahead.
were they running waaaay behind or something, or was there no one to pass the announcement off to after the said the winners?
what were the shows, particularly nitro and dekalb. im not gonna be able to see them this year =<
nitro had a winter themed show kinda over the top nitro style theme , which is a good thing.
& if i remember correct there songs were...
California Dreaming
Frozen
Cold as Ice
Cold December?
and others
