First of, congratulations to alll of the show choirs/concert choirs from yesterday! You all rocked out hardcore!  A special shout out to Brownsburg!! You guys were absolutely phenomenal yesterday with show choir and especially Madrigals. I've never seen you guys perform with so much conviction, in either one. I am so proud of you guys and wish you all the very best!!! I'm so glad I got to come back and see all my show choir buds who I don't get to see often enough!


Speaking of good ol' BBurg...rumor has it that the concert choir got a perfect score going into finals. Is that true? Because if it is all i have to say is WOW. Way to go. Congrats!

I heard what a great site this was. Imagine my disappointment. I've always loved show choir, and respected the members for the way they supported each other, then I read this thread.

Everyone's talking about a 'controversial decision'. What controversy?

By my understanding, out of five judges, four ranked Fairfield first, and one ranked them second. That sounds rather decisive to me, especially since the closest (1st runner up) received an 11 from the five judges next to Fairfield's 6. That would equate, at best, to a first, two seconds and two thirds.

Of course, I've no doubt the complainers here have much more experience than the judges - heaven forbid, should the phrase 'poor loser' come to one's mind.

The choirs were all oustanding, and I would not have been surprised had the rankings been different.

Excellent job, Fairfield. I certainly hope you come back, if for no other reason as an example of good sportsmanship.

can we please avoid generalizations on all fronts? just because one person from LC or NC or BD or BB or FF or LN or XYZ says something that you think is rude or inaccurate doesn't mean we need to blame the whole school.... thats how half of these fights start. someone generalizes a post that one person from one school made, and everyone fires back and starts insulting the entire program. its a nasty cycle that we keep perpetuating with lack of specification.

thanks.

Yes I'd like to say that I didn't say anything rude except to the person who said that we were "tacky." That's rediculous. I complimented Fairfield and I also said why I said sorry for LC. Because I love them. People come on here all the time saying things like, "AWW I LOVE YOU I WISH YOU WOULD HAVE WON." it's just like saying, "AWWWW I WISH JOSH GROBAN WOULD HAVE COME PERFORMED AT THE GRAMMYS!" (for all you show choir lovers who love josh groban ((i'm not one of them))) anyway.... No North Central person has said anything bad to anyone. I say poopface as a joke. Who really says poopface as an insult? Come on now. If you know me in real life, I think you'd be laughing and realize that I'm just joking and being retarded...(LIGHTENING UP THE SITUATION PERHAPS!?!) anyway, I don't think Fairfield should be taken away from their glory. I think what's done is done. Congrats to them and after seeing the tears in their eyes I couldn't help but smile. I'm sure that what they got was well deserved with the day was done. I'm sure everyone kind of thinks it too but doesn't want to admit it because they are biased to other choirs.

I will say also, I didn't see any LC person being mean on here either. Whoever said this I forgot the screen name of the person who posted that LC and NC was being mean, but I beg to differ. If it was anyone it was alumnis from Ben Davis.. and they are allowed to be because they are in college and it doesn't really matter, does it? I'm sure they are just being wild and crazy for their old show choir becuase you have this never ending love for that choir no matter how long you've graduated from it.

Everyone saying for people to be mature and be nice and set a good example for their choir, and when one's mean everyone gets mad at that one particular choir. I'm sorry. You cannot put 50+ human beings and not expect at LEAST ONE RADISH TO COME OUT A LITTLE MORE "SPUNKY" than most. I just think people should think about this and stop blaming the whole entire choir for one person's actions. I'm sure this person may seem "immature" to you, but really, aren't we all kiddish sometimes? And if you're not .. can you at least rememebr the times when you were?

Oh well, people say mean things... it's time to move on. you can't complain about it and be like, "Wow, you showed lack of immaturity. You are a fool." ...Just, get over it. If this person wants to be rude, that's their own fault. Dwelling on it and complaining about someone's rudeness on the internet isn't going to do anyone justice.

You apologized to all the choirs because of the results. What a slap in the face to Fairfield. You can pretend all you want you took the results in a mature manner. You are possibly one of the most ignorant posters I have ever read. As you continue to post I continue to lose respect for you and your program.

I am a new person to showchoir.com and i can understand that some people are very unhappy and i am just as much as everyone else very surpirised but like my Fairfield homies said we did work very hard on doing better in the evening. I would also like to give a big shout out to the North Central people who said some nice things and to the Colerain Show card guys as well.

I would also like to say on a positive note that i though everyone was really awsome. This is my sophomore year and i heard how awsome all the Indiana show choirs are and i was excited to get to see all of them and they were awsome like i was told. MY last thing, is that our hosts were AWSOME. They were so energetic and just made us feel right at home being the only ohio group there.

Thanks for listening to what i had to say

I completely agree with Jason. If Mr. B would've been there last night, we would have gotten the "it's how you feel after you leave the stage" speech ... because after those results, there is nothing else we can possibly hold onto.

I am so proud of all of you, CS. You made my senior year. I am going to miss Central Sound in so many ways and I want you all to know how much I love you. We cannot help what happened last night, and I know I will go to bed so many nights wondering what the eff happened ... but what's done is done. We can't change it.

We had the best show of our lives. We all walked off that stage knowing that we were amazing, and that's all that matters.

And... at least we're not the only ones that were confused by our placement.

I love you CS.

*EDIT* Ben Davis, your ballad was beautiful. I didn't see it during finals but I cried while listening to it at prelims.

There have been individuals from both NC and LC who have said very rude things about the performances and the results.  Would your directors appreciate such animosity, particularly if you're from the host school?  Bad behavior run amok.
To the kids from NC and LC who have commented in a respectful and positive way, congrats on achieving a level of maturity higher than that of some of your peers.

i am just curious as to where you found any lc people posting negative things? i think that most people who know anything would tend to agree that we are a classy group and we are good sports when we lose. and the few times that we have messed up we are readily willing to apologize.

i know everyone that posts in here knows that feeling where you have done your absolute best...better than you even think possible. and when our prelims performance set us in a VERY close 2nd...the final results were surprising. and the enormous gasp and jaw drop of 90% of the audience was a little disheartening, too.
that performance for me, among many others, was my last. and not to be dramatic-- but that was probably my last time being in a performance of that magnitude. i won't ever forget bursting out into tears along with my entire choir because we knew we had done our ABSOLUTE best.

however---CONGRATS fairfield...way to take indiana by storm.

ps...CS i love you guys. so much.

After reading this forum today i have one thing to say:
Where is the love????






Congratulations to EVERYONE(and of course the grandchamps anyone who wins GC deserves congrats!)... You all were amazing... I have never had so much fun hosting... this shout out is to LN New Dimension...You guys made my day yesterday, I hope I get you again next year for hosting... and to everyone, as we say in CP....."Leave it on the Stage" ... what happened happened...we all should know already, the sheer fact that we are in show choir makes us amazing because it is such a special thing to be apart of, never forget that its not always about competitons, its about the group and how much of a family you are, and the fact that with that family you can hold each other in good times and in bad, i love you all, and please take no offence to this post, thanks for coming again, and i hope to see you all next year....

This topic has gotten way insane so I won't comment on any of the comp. precedings but I just want to say a little something to all my CS kids:

I know that you all are disappointed with the results, believe me I was so disappointed(You all know me and when I say disappointed, I mean something a lot more vivid.) when I heard but I'm so proud of you guy's. I know that this year has been a tad difficult with another director change and all that. However, when it comes down to it, you all have dealt with it really well. I've heard you guy's complain, rejoice, etc. but I'm so proud of you guy's. You took your show and performed it so well and you maintained a certain unity that maybe CS 2004 didn't quite have(You all know what I'm talking about.) I appluad you all!!! Above all things; You have maintained the high standard of integrity that was manifested when Mick and Judy Bridgewater came to LC 25 years ago and created The Central Sound. Remember that you all are from a long line of great show choirs and one insane result of a competition cannot tarnish that history. I know the feelings aren't so great and positive now but remember " we are CS and we should conduct ourselves as such." Everyone of the alumi, parents, and whoever else are all proud and totally support you. Seniors: In a nutshell, this result at your last comp. sucks but you all are great performers, and you know that. Don't let this rain on the probably 90% of awesome times you've had while in the group. You all have been nothing but professional on these boards when responding to this topic. Anything negative and what not you've had to say, you have kept between yourselves, alumni, and parents. MAD PROPS!!!! You have every right to be mad, sad, disappointed, bitter, and pissed off. Do not let some of these "nervous" people on SCC tell you any different. Myself and I'm sure many others are proud of the way you have handled this. Have fun at Disney World!!!!

I agree i think that the results were right on because that is what the judges thought and i appologize on behalf of my school and my choir, don't allow a few rude people affect your opinion of the choir. No matter what Fairfield Choralaires are the Grand Champions of MIC Show Choir Competition 2005! Congrats!
