Wow, your acoustic performance made my jaw drop.
I thought to myself , she is the real deal. Your electric was great,
but I knew you are awesome , but the acoustic number,
just wow, to me that was the wow factor!!

Thanks guys! I finally worked up the courage to watch the video, and it turns out I didn't mess up as badly as I thought I did when I played it over again in my head. I'm going to have the video from the Regional Finals in Houston up soon too, so everyone can hear what it was supposed to sound like.

Here are some pictures for you guys, with more coming soon after I finally update my phone.

Guitar Center takes credit for the photos, I don't know the name of the photographer who took them though.

Too bad I missed this thread, I would've loved to be your "cheerleader" during the long way to the finals, Rebecca.
You did an amazing job, congrtulations!!

I share your feelings about the messed up sound.
It happened to me once. We played a charity concert for a young girl with heart desease and we shared the stage with a punk band.
The PA was rented and the guy from that company made the soundcheck with us.
All sound parameters were perfect!!!
The punk band was our opener and they insisted to have their own "sound technician" at the board.
When the band was done, the whole sttings were messed up and the company's mixing guy had disappeared during the gig.

We were left on stage with a completely ruined sound setup and didn't even NOTICE!! On stage the sound was ok but the PA wasn't set right.
We simply were totally surprised that people were running away in crowds.

After the gig a friend told me about the desaster of the PA sound and I was really p**** off.
Sh*** happens and it won't be the last experience of this kind for you, I bet.

No need to be sad though, you've made it a long way and next year you'll smash'em all!

I wish there would be competitions like that in Germany but there's only band competitions! So if you're not playing in a band, you're busted!
I'd love to compete with others one day.

CONGRATS again, Rebecca, you rock!!!!
