HOLY CRAP!!! THIS COMPETITION ROCKED MY SOCKS OFF!!!!!
NO DOUBT ABOUT IT - FAME has now established itself as the new national competition to be at. It was SOOOOOOOOO awesome!!!! They put on the best "show" I have ever seen --- everything was so well run. The venue and the sound were top notch -- the decorations and all --- AWESOME - that cup....holy crap how cool was that --- and how the heck did Clnton get it home? LOL It was like taller than my little sister --- I saw that two people had to carry it --- LOL
Truly every little detail was thought of --- they really put on a "world class" event
Haakon it was SOOOOOOOO cool to see you and showchoir.com there --- I loved it!!!
ANd I took Jesse lee's hip hop class --- whoa,,,,that boy is uber hot and has some really fresh moves -- I loved it!!!
Truly - to the FAME people (cause I know you're on here fom time to time) THANK YOU --- you put on an event like no other, and I know it took alot of work -- but everyone single person I talked to and all the comments I heard were just raves about what a "great", "incredible", outstanding", "fantastic" event it was, and I couldnt agree more. It was AWESOME!!!!!
OK so about the groups:
Clinton - of course you guys were so flawless - congrats you deserved it
Totino - Wow, I loved your energy and your enthusiasm --- awesome costumes - great show --- Congrats --- it was a tight race to the end and you all were so GOOD, I hope you know that many people out there would have had you in 2nd!!!
Burroughs --- WOW --- you guys can SING!!!! I might have even given best vocals to you guys --- CONGRATS on such an outstanding show --- it was so nice to see a group form CALI!!!
Happiness -- You guys really kicked it up in Semis --- I loved your show and you sold it so well....it was a hrad competition, but you have nothing to hang your head about --- CONGRATS
Pleasant Hill --- I thought for sure you would bump off Grand Island for that 6th place spot --- I thought you guys had a very fine semis performance and really pulled it together. I love you choreography and costumes --- i was proud to say I was from Missouri!!!!! GREAT GREAT JOB!!!!
FC Singers -- I hope that you guys werent too disappointed --- again this was a VERY tight competition and I persoanlly LOVED your singing --- WOW I have to say I didnt get into your show so much --- a bit too "silly" for me but it looks like you had a ball performing it and that is all that matters in the big picture --- I do have to say that I might have had you guys in the running for best vocals though ---- you sang really well
Spanish Fork --- You guys totally deserved all te captions you got --- you were some of the nicest people and talented individuals --- congrats ---
Well, I need to run to class now -- but hey congrats to all groups and to FAME --- this was one for the history books ---- Id love to hear what others thought ----
Powerhouse was supposed to be home sunday...it's now monday and the last powerhouse plane hasn't landed. Sunday denver...snowed in...then while we were staying at the hilten in kansas their was a tornado watch THEN we all had to take 3 different flights...6 people were left off the plane list...Sasha, Corey, Chris, Robert, Cerita, Mrs. Trimble and myself!!!!

I heard a friend say he saw a comercial on saying Fame Branson was gonna be on ESPN 2 sometime.... It didn't get any more specific than that actually though, so, I was just wondering if anyone knows which Fame Branson (I'd assume this one), and what time and day it's supposed to be on!

hey-
not really. If you were at the competition, you walked away with the dvd that you ordered, and the company was not going to make any others....my advice, find one of us from company and get it that way.
congradulations to all, especially to powerhouse! I was really excited to meet everyone, especially stella, and adam and alex and my favorite dance partner!!! (you know who you are ) you were the nicest goroup there, and i only wish we had more time to talk to you all.
From what we were told, the point spread in finals was really close...taking scores before rankings, Company was .7 away from burrows, and burrows was 4.1 away from clinton. so good job to everyone
