Super classic blast from the past: http://www.showchoir.com/forums/topic.php?pid=521557#521557

This is just SO hilarious!

Alex Hall was judging here... and as stated in the above link, his brother Erik Hall was the one who yelled that out. Alex caught the reference and mentioned it on Riverside's tape. Talk about crazy full circle moment.

A blast from the past. In 2008 at Fame Chicago, when Waubonsie Valley performed their glorious and historic 'Tye Tribbett medley', at the pause between "I want it all back!" and a dance break, someone in the audience yelled "Then go get it". Today at Fame Chicago, Riverside, WV performed two-thirds of that medley and incorporated that audience outburst into their show.

Congratulations to all the competing groups! The quality of performances was wonderful.
Kudos to the light designer, who made each group look even more polished!
Well done, FAME!

Trying to watch the 'live feed' and it keeps going back to the original group, not Greenbrier which is currently performing... will this be fixed soon??

We do plan on web-casting the FAME Chicago event. However, the quality of the free broadcast will depend on the internet speed at the venue. We were fortunate in New York and Orlando to have a fast upload available from both venues. The live feed can be seen at www.showchoirs.org. We look forward to another awesome competition this weekend!

Yeah my bad. Fort should get grand champs here. Easily the best Fort Atkinson show I've ever seen. Absolutely phenomenal

WOW IM SORRY

I misinterpreted to begin with but then the post after yours made me take your post negatively. My bad, glad that was cleared up though. Still excited for this competition! And those are some kinds words

Curious to what you mean by "lose" does that mean 1st runner up? 2nd runner up? 6th runner up? Reagardless I don't want anyone in my choir to take this comment too harshly! This will be a great experience for us seeing/competing with show choirs we've never seen/competed against before. I will also agree with the disappointment of Decatur not coming, was really looking forward to seeing them. I can't wait for this competition and who knows maybe we'll surprise some people?


That person is saying that they believe Fort is likely to win, not they they'll lose

Even if Fort Atkinson places 3rd Runner-Up, which they should be able to do, they will still get an invite to FAME Nationals.

Here's the individual discussion for FAME Chicago 2015...

Castle "Knight Sensations" (IN)
Castle "Knightingales" (IN)
Columbus North "Debuteens and Music Men" (IN)
Decatur "Elite Energy" (IL)
Manchester "Capital Swing" (VA)
Manchester "Touch of Swing" (VA)
Northridge "Northern Lights" (IN)
Northridge "Starlights" (IN)
Riverside "Melodic Fusion" (WV)
Unity "Vocal Rush" (IL)


Apparently, Decatur "Elite Energy" has cancelled, which leaves this FAME Regional awfully thin.
