Ok, I tried out for America's got Talent and Had quite an expirience . I arrived at the George R Brown Convention center at 12:00p I then waited in line after being given a blue wrist band and a number that was to " Be worn at ALL times" and then ushered into another line at which time they searched me and then directed the group to .. wait guess this.. ANOTHER LINE! Eventually I ended up in a room with about 500 other people, and that is when we started to realize that we were all going to get VERY well aquainted... They were calling people 200 to 250... I was 849... WOW! After about 45 min. A gentlman in blue that went by the name of Shawn started to get up and get the party started, he would pick a random contestant out of the crowd and make them sing! We had a blast! You heard some AMAZING voices, and saw a few hilarious acts but all in all the feeling of hopefulness was in that room surrounding everyone there. By the time the room started to dwindle down a bit I had gotten to know a few people very well, one who was in a pink silk dress that I will call nightengale had a voice so pure you were sure that an angel rode it down from heaven, she was a young (16 ish) woman who loved what she was doing and had her family all around for support. I also met another couple who had with them a very large pipe that they called a digoreedoo.. it looks like the picture above and it was definetly unique, he made his own clothing and shoes and was a rather well unique! He and his girlfriend seemed very down to earth and was willing to meet with anyone and explain why they did what they did and the history of the digoreedoo. I was enthralled it was an amazing instrument to hear.
Later we were taken into the main production room where we were asked to stay quite while interviews were being conducted and then, THEY CALLED MY #!!! YAY! I went in and sang with everything I had, the judges seemed impressed but alas no call. Oh well, God has something in mind for me, I just have not figured out what it is yet.
Then I recieved a phone call and guess what! I will be singing on stage during a music festival this weekend... maybe all my dreams will come through, or maybe I have yet to discover what my dreams really are yet.
