i have two devices up and one is running ok, but it is my tablet. My computer is hooked up to the tv and is not doing good at all! Really want to see Petal on the big screen!!!
Can't make predictions based on the partial shows presented in the sound checks, but the choirs that stood out are: ALA, Twinsburg, Brea, and Uniondale. Some of the favorites were perhaps holding back.

UPDATE: The Single-Gender competition is delayed by 30 minutes because of an inadvertant fire alarm in the venue during the sound checks. The schedule below is the updated schedule.

Don't forget Lincoln Southwest! They won GC, vocals, and choreography at FAME Chicago over Etobicoke's 3rd. I also am not sure of your placement for ALA "Evolution" considering they won FAME Hollywood with choreo and band, and beat Brea, who you have 3rd. I haven't seen either show this year, but I would be surprised if there was a 9 place gap between those two groups.

As the director of Brea Olinda and a show choir director for 37 years, I see this year's field of groups as being not only outstanding, but highly entertaining as well. I expect the outcome in both divisions to be close with no single group dominating. I would like to congratulate every group and their outstanding directors for qualifying for this year's highly competitive Show Choir National Finals. Good luck to you and may we all grow as a result of watching each other.
