This is a comment someone made from Chesterton's show at Marysville, and I can indeed echo it. They are singing their hearts out and have some really, really good vocal moments. And Alex really did some outstanding things with their choreography. Their show concept is water and fire and it's quite interesting! I wouldn't doubt them being in the top three at this competition.
I'm also going to put in a plug for St. Francis, I was blown away by their vocals at Onalaska and had them higher in finals. Their show was also just overall fun and entertaining. Would not be surprised if they snagged a caption from GCS!
It's actually all of the elements! Their second number, "Wind," is an original song by Alex Hall himself! Truly incredible[/quote]
An original number!? GASP! How is Tresona supposed to suck the blood out of that?!
Chesterton!!!!!! OMG! Such a good show!! Those vocals = LIFE !!!
How i love Indiana groups!!

Predictions:
I'm not too familiar with Indiana, Illinois, Ohio show choir so I can't say for sure that Chesterton is at the level of GCS but from some research that I've done is that they did really well last year and also have alex hall as a choreographer so that's a plus. Should be interesting for Janesville's inaugural competition!!
