[Joshua Lester]

Hi, it's Joshua Lester.
I wrote this, on the Performance Division list, and didn't get any response.
I wonder if anyone on this list was at the Tallent night, last year.
If you agree, with my assessment, or have any ideas, please E-mail me,
offlist, after reading this post.
Thanks, Joshua

Hi, it's joshua Lester.
I was listening to the podcast, of last year's talent show.
I found out, that the rap group, that mixed Run DMC's song, "You be
Illin," with "I like the Way you Move," was called, Out of Sight.
I couldn't understand what they were saying, but I'd like for the
group, to contact me.
I want to know, because Dennis Sumlin, said something about NFB, and
ACB, after the song was over.
I only listened to part one of the two parts.
When I was there, I was shocked about the crude, and out-of-line
humor, after each performance.
I didn't appreciate Dennis's mocking of that 7-year-old girl, that
sang about charishing the moments.
He also made fun of that lady, that followed Carlie.
Then, later on, he made fun of Mr. Gwizdala's song, "Step by Step."
Some of that was not necessary.
We had a great time, last year, but I hope these things are changed, this year.
#1. Please eliminate the crude, and out-of-line humor.
#2. Please don't make fun of every performer, or performance.
and #3. Let's cut out all of the background noise, so the recordings
can pick up clearly.
Sarah may not be there, this year, but whoever records this, shouldn't
have to record background noise.
God bless, and I hope to see you in Orlando.
Joshua

I'll add one more thing, to this.
My favorite performance that night, was Julie McGinity's rendition of
"Only Hope."
