Is there anyway to get the cut out finals performances?

YouTube only saves a certain amount of live streams (somewhere around 11:30:00 worth of a livestream). HOA may have film of those performances that aren’t on the saved live stream, but generally if you want to see a whole contest, the contest has to have a separate livestream on YouTube for finals (or large mixed if it’s a huge one and done contest like Los Al used to host).

I have received word that the livestream hosts (Adam Peters and Alex Hall) are trying to get the finals session on YouTube as a separate video - will update if it comes to fruition.

That would be amazing. So many of our parents were hoping to watch it again and were so disappointed when the saved livestream just cut off early during the finals.

Do you know if there is any update as far as getting the Finals session up on YouTube?

Unfortunately it's probably not going to happen, I will drop a link here if it does.

Ankeny’s show is so interesting. The interactive section of it mixed with their vocals made a show that was constantly keeping me interested. Awesome job!

Los Al may be the best show I’ve ever seen. The only competition is Attaché 2017 at CTC but wow everything was stellar about that performance.

Manchester’s ballad was gorgeous and I love the set design! I wish we got to see them again tonight

I’ve seen every Los Al show in person going back to 2014, and this might be my favorite of all of them. It’s so hard to say due to recency bias, but it’s definitely in my top 2.

One of the guys on the livestream said that the kid that plays the clown is only FOURTEEN YEARS OLD! ????

It’s not my favorite show I’ve ever seen (that’d be either Idol by Burroughs or Prodigal by Burbank), but it’s definitely up there! Hr\ard to believe it’s high school kids sometimes…lol

His acting skills are phenomenal. Definitely one of my favorite parts of Sound Fx's show this year.

Los Al I’d say Edward is my all time fave from them. I kinda want a season where Burroughs , Burbank , los Al , Clinton , all do the same heart of America comp. Add in a Johnston innovations , 10th street edition.

Add in Homewood, Carmel, Franklin Central, and Center Grove to while we're at it. But, for Clinton you somehow have to avoid SCN and baseball, and that's not easy to do in March.

It is a tragedy that many schools end their show choir seasons so early, that's for sure!

It’s the correct order. Placements weren’t announced but the score sheets were given to the groups.
Order of performance was random.

There’s a lot of talented groups here! Anyone could end up anywhere during finals.

I suspected that they had Los Al last for finals intentionally so that they could use their backdrop for awards (and also allow awards to not have to wait for Los Al to tear down). Either that, or they just got lucky!
