My favorite band was eliminated last night. I'm sad for them because they didn't show off their best work...oh well live and learn.
Mystifying judges comments included "I don't know who you are. You play so many different types of music... you need to find an identity." Translated: You're too versatile. In any other music competition, this would be a good thing.
The other judge said he liked the first piece better than the second. I agree with this. Their second tune was not well received by the audience. They had a guest "singer" join them. He basically screamed into the microphone... you couldn't understand anything.
If they had picked a piece that would have featured their guitarist and drummer they would still be in the competition. Their musicianship far outweighs some of those who are still in the competition.
No sour grapes here. They will continue to play great music and like every other music group in the world, the will play some crumby stuff too.
Still a Hooray! Hooray! fan,

Hooray for Hooray! Hooray! Yeah, they didn't play their most audience-pleasing stuff. Many famous artists have done that, like Dylan.
