This has to be the MOST HYPED competition I have ever witnessed online here on showchoir.com... Look at my member number, then you'll know I've been here since day one

Over 12,000+ hits and the competition has not even begun!!!

BEST OF LUCK TO ALL!!!


I too wish I could be there... Congrats to FAME for hosting such an AMAZING event!!! I do not envy the judges on this one!

Chula went to Fame NY 2006 and made finals with the likes of Burbank, Burroughs, Totino Grace and the spectacular North Central then! I would love to see North Central perform at that calibur they did in 2006 this upcoming weekend!!! It would make life SOOO interesting for everyone competing!

Clinton Attache has personified everything right about show choir! I love the people... the professionalism.. the work ethic... the directors, choreographers and staff, band et al... There is a reason why they are nationally re-known!

John Burroughs was so amazing these last two weeks I saw them... They are so ready for this, and will represent California to the upmost BEST... Can't wait for the world to see them! Would be so awesome if Sound Sensations also made Finals! They are having a GREAT year as well!

I have heard great things about Waubonsie Valley... So.. another contender to watch for! However, I have not seen them nor heard them... So my predictions for them are based on reputation.

My predictions:

Top 2: Burroughs and Clinton
Both are different schools of show choir... The judges preference that day will be curious to see...

so the judges will determine whether they prefer Southern Homemade Cooking...


or California Cuisine...


2RU: North Central
3RU: Waubonsie Valley


ps. You can NEVER get tired of Disneyland...


Living only 1 hour drive away, I go at least 2-3 times a month! =) It is soooo magical!





Page 20... My prediction! I am now on my way to buy a lotto ticket! " border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

Wow.. what a battle it must have been!

THANKS for the EXCITEMENT of the YEAR!

NOW... you need to watch SO CAL on the LIVE FEED APRIL 19th

Burroughs
Burbank
Hart
Los Alamitos
Bonita Vista
Mt. Eden
Carlsbad
and MORE!!!

Watch for it on the internet!!!!!

FAME... call me... so we can set you up for these broadcasts in 2009!!!

I believe that makes it:

California 2
Mississippi 0

It just shows that everyone is beatable and it isn't a hoax.

California is flabberghasted and excited for Powerhouse and Brendan Jennings. Absolutely tremendous job. Through a JBHS Powerhouse Alumni I learned last semester Brendan set the goal to beat Attache. I saw their show in the beginning and I had to be honest and say it would have never happened if they hadn't cleaned up their show tremendously over the last 2 months.

Wish I knew what the other groups looked like, but still tremendous....

Congratulations to EVERYONE! I'm sure you all were amazing!

Wish I could have been there.

Now I'm just glad the results roller coaster is over.

Congratulations to all the groups!

I want to say a special congrats to my South Jones Company for a job well done and for a great year!

Also to Clinton Attache, yall have again represented the South with pride.

I dont post here much, but i would just like to say that i think Clinton is one of the best in the country. They are as good as always, its just that everybody else has stepped up their programs and gotten better and now instead of 2 or 3 good groups at a competition, their are 7, 8 or more!

I would like to also say that all of the groups from the South have represented well this year! My new slogan for this year has been, "Practice it, Polish it, Perform it...... Then leave it on the stage!" I have seen some amazing performances this year. I hope to see many more for years to come!!!

Congrats again to all!

Way to go Burroughs and Clinton!!!! I'm ecstatic that the top two spots belonged to you guys! I thought for sure that Attache had BV when they took Best Male Sound AND Best Diction. And this is the first time that Clinton lost best choreography in forever. I'm sure you (Burroughs) deserved it all, as your show was fantastic. Clinton, I'm sure you were amazing and I knew that it would be you vs. Powerhouse for top placement.
