Sixteen singers took the stage Wednesday night at Stables.
"Contestants are coming out of the woodwork," said Stables Bar Manager John Buehl. "It's great to see such a wonderful turnout. We may have to get the competition started earlier next week," Buehl added.
Only two weeks remain (November 14 and November 28) before the winner-take-all finals on December 5th. Eight finalists have already been chosen. On November 28th, four more will be added.
The 12 will sing on Wednesday December 5th with one singer walking away with a free all-expenses paid trip to Las Vegas.
Already chosen are: Amy Thomas, Karen Powell, John Howley, Jessica Rex, Keagan Cerny, Kate Gembrowski, Janie Thomas and Kathy James.
Judges Tommy Anderson, Kathy Lagalo and Dick Bork are already talking about the high level of talent in the competition. "This is going to be very difficult to pick one winner from this group of talented singers," said Bork. They're all so good," said Lagalo. "It's going to be very hard to pick just one winner."
