Wow...I just said something zingful and I found out I get to go to Fame Chicago/Waukegan/Lakeshore. Two cool things in a row!

Maybe we should decide an actual title for this competition; Chicago is not exactly true, Waukegan doesn't have that ring, and Lakeshore makes me think of Florida(weird Disney College Program story...).

I honestly don't know who could beat a weekend of show choir in DOWNTOWN CHICAGO, but I do know that seeing great show choirs in Waukegan this same weekend could possibly beat it...

I wish I was, but Company and Testostertones are headed to Grand River in La Crosse that weekend. I'm tempted to drive myself, and just go on to Chicago as soon as it's over so I can meet up with all you fools and enjoy the afterparty!

I think you and I together at a competition could be dangerous!!! LOL!



That is true! We would most likely be yelled at numerous times for not keeping our mouths shut--then we would resort to text messaging which would end up in us getting kicked out!! LOL
Have fun in La Crosse---I will text you the results from Fame and you do the same from Grand River!!

ATSChicks and I are trying to see if the Vocal Music Parents Association will fund a trip to FAME Chicago. haha. Since that probably won't happen, we'll order a finals DVD.

While I don't think Bloomington Kennedy has the vocals to beat Burroughs, Waubonsie Valley, North Central, or Clinton, I do think they will solidly be in 5th place at FAME Chicago.

I am excited to see how North Central does their first time out, as I think they could potentially be at the top here- provided they have their usual vocals and energy, with a really well-designed show (an area in which Clinton is difficult to top). I LOVE Waubonsie Valley, but unless they changed their end of the show, I just don't think they have the show design to hold up to Clinton or North Central. Burroughs could be a bit of a wild card here- their show seems fantastic, but decidedly out there and perhaps a bit dark at the beginning- could alienate some judges, or could completely win them over.

I am painfully jealous of everyone free the weekend of this competition- I want to attend SO badly.
