Onalaska was a great experience for everyone, but overall it was an amazing competition, my favorite group was Eisenhower they were amazing dancers, I was definately excited that we won best band, seeing as even the band had a gajillion malfunctions but we pulled it through. i'm sure by omaha we will pull it together and be amazing.
Totino Grace- You never cease to amaze me. Your show is good and sadly you had the prop malfunctions and the time penelty. I have always and will always been a fan and supporter. You have a lot of potential and I can't WAIT to see you at Kennedy. I think your next competition you will show that this was just a hard first outing. And it doesn't help that at this competition any mistake was the difference between finals and 7th place. But congrats on the best band! You were one the best out there and always are. And i think i saw a few of you SCCers walking around from Totino. BTW- good job Wes on the solo.
Thanks Stolby

Once again... Marty DeMott is the only judge to hit the nail on the head... I think it's his 3rd year in a row? This guy deserves a raise!
I concur! Marty is always spot on with his rankings! One of the THE BEST judges on the curcuit!

ADAM! You're still forgetting someone...

Oh Don Stein...
Yes everyone... I'd like to also say that seeing Don Stein was a pleasure too. He lead me to Mr. Munderloh's office to use his computer to talk to everyone on here! Go Don Stein.
I'd prefer either "Show Choir Guru"... or "Show Choir Idol"... or "King of All Show Choir"... or "Most Omnipotent Ruler of Show Choir Across the World". Show Choir "God" is stretching it... but any of those ones listed will do.
Mr. Weber... could I still try out for Headliners this year? I know I would contribute so much to the group, and I look pretty fly in those Go-Go wigs!
Onalaska was a fantastic competition. It was nice to have conversations with some directors (mainly Aaron Olson and Heath Weber)… it was extremely awesome to hang with the SCC/show choir junkies (Nick S, Megan, Nick M, Chris, and Adam Miller* ((*The night before))). It was great to see some friends from SCA (Joe F. from WW especially, congrats on your win and see ya at Mt.Zion). It was lovely seeing my Onalaska girls Heather and Kim. It just was a great day. The competition ended on time… and besides seeing Hastings boys strip their shirts off when being announced 3rd Runner Up, everyone was well behaved… seems that doesn't happen much at competitions these days… but sportsmanship was great (lead by Totino of course :-p) I can't wait for Onalaska 2009!!!
I forgot to add another person! How could I forget the awesome Ana (also spelled 'Ona' " border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> )... It was fantastic getting to sit next to my most favorite show choir BFF and have a good time!

HEY JORGE! What are you some sort of Show Choir GOD or something?! Thanks...I guess for what you said about my choir (minus the tenth place part) But what in your right mind gives you the liberty to say such harsh things especially to Xhileration...their show was awesome and just because it wasn't perfectly polished or amazing gives you no right to put them down like that. NO CHOIR DESERVES THAT I DONT CARE IF THEY ARE WHEATON WARRENVILLE OR SOME LITTLE MIDDLE SCHOOL CHOIR. Maybe your intentions weren't so malicious as they came off as but maybe you should be a little more careful... btw, serious question: are you a judge? because you sure sounded like you thought you were...

yeah we can all have an opinion but that's just stupid if everyone has "free speech" meaning that "OK now i'm going to go post loads of jerkish comments and crap in a public place"...there are ways to 'critique' and I just felt he abused this privelege. And your welcome...personally I loved your show although the random gorrillas were kind of confusing and yes I hope you improve wonderfully your show has great potential but you could just really tell it was your first performance... could ya tell me the name of that guy who had the frickin' AMAZING solo (btw if you didn't read earlier somewhere on this when I said that I think he deserved it over the guy from Sioux City.

Jake you dont know what your talking about he's just giving some costructive critisism. you're just bringing a bad name to your self by calling people out like this.
