where all will Eisenhower and CR-Kennedy be competing this year?
I know that on Eisenhower's competition tour they still have, Danville, Sullivan, Mundelein, and Nashville. I am not sure about CR Kennedy, but I'm sure you can find it somewhere on this site. You could use the search feature to find posts about CR Kennedy also. That may help.
Another of the Medley songs was "Step in Time." Sorry I randomly think of them throughout the day. The 2nd song is right on the tip of my tongue, but that doesn't help you all too much. lol
Sullivan's show didn't really overimpress me like it had in past years. The two Mary Poppins songs were Supercalifragilisticexpialidocioius and Chim-Chiminey one.
You'd think since they spelled Supercalifragilisticexpialidocioius so many times I'd be able to spell it, but I doubt my spelling is completely correct.
I didn't stay for the finals, but the only group I didn't see in prelims that made it was Faces. I loved CR Kennedy's show and they sang really well. My personal feeling is they had the best vocals of prelims, but like I said, that's just me.
I can certainly understand Onalaska getting best vocals, they were quite good as well. However, their show didn't really keep my attention the entire time, and I'm not sure why. " border="0" alt="blink.gif" />
After seeing EEE, I figured they would win GC. They had the whole package: strong vocals plus clean and tight choreography. They also win my personal award for my favorite ballad of the season so far.
Also, props to Adam Fieldson for both his solo wins. I didn't hear his individual solo but I wish I'd stuck around now! CR Kennedy's solos were right after my solo. I did see his solo in CR Kennedy's show and he was amazing. Goosebumps.

Wow, what a competition!!!! I had such a great time! Adam F. from CR-K first of all congrats. I am honored to come in second place to you To EEE, congrats on GC! And to everyone, what did you think of the Hilltopper show? Just asking for some feedback from the crowd! Again this was a great competition and way to go everyone!
I agree Mr. Hillertz.... that finals was stacked. only a 16point?(I'm pretty sure) spread between 1st and 3rd. wow. well, i thought Ona did a wonderful job in the finals(THEY ACTUALLY SMILED!!!), completely changing the mood from earlier in the day when they all looked as if they had been hit repeatedly with a frying pan. For the first competition, well done!

Sullivan opened with "Raise the Roof" from The Wild Party (same arrangement and choreography from 2001 just with different costumes and different ending) the 2nd song I can't remember right now. The ballad was "Skin" by the Rascal Flatts. They closed with a Mary Poppins Medley. I am missing the 2nd song and the things (if there were any) between the ballad and the closer. I don't think I enjoyed it too much.
Kennedy,...WAY TO GO!! Incredible line-up, incredible groups, and you guys put forth another incredible effort. Spamalot may be weird, but people sure will remember us, won't they?!?!?! I look forward to seeing you guys tomorrow and adding a final "push" to the show before you enter your last 4 competitions. I'm very proud of you! God Bless, Damon

Hi everyone!!! sooo yesterday was a looonng but fun day congrats to everyone who made it into finals they truly deserved it.
So I happen to be in the mixed group and the girls group at Crete and i can seriuosly say that it was the most bizzare thing for Faces to make it into finals and not Cavs. It was one of the most bitter-sweet emotions i have ever had excited for faces to be in finals but sad that cavs didn't WE FREAKIN BEAT OURSELVES! for a place in finals. Now we know what we have to work on in cavs and I feel that we can only go up from here but I can only say that for Faces is im so proud of you girls and lets do it again!!! We had 4 girls we had to go to the hospital because they worked their butts off in finals! If that isn't hard work and dedication I don't know what is. As for some people thinking that Cavs "weren't so hot" well it won't be long before that changes. ;)
oh, how much i love the twist and turns of show choir!
If that isn't anything but hard work and dedication I don't know what is

Yeah...
I wanted to see Mt. Zion. We wouldn't have seen them anywhere this year and I thought it would be sweet to see Crete Cavaliers... too bad they weren't so hot.It was a lot of fun, though. I was just ****ing tired driving in the fog at 3 in the morning through Chicago... I was tempted to stop and just go to Michigan Avenue or something when we all woke up the next morning, but you know how that goes.
