The fourth night of the Rising Star Talent Show ended with a bang. A very large bang. About half way through the show, the sky got very dark and we knew a storm was coming. We got to the second last act when the skies opened and everyone ran for cover. Everything in the sound booth got soaked including the judges. Zsolt our sound guy was running all over the stage covering speakers, kids in the back of the stage were a little scared, I was trying to cover up our computer, score sheets, etc., when this man comes running into the sound booth asking where Vicki was. Now I am thinking his kid has gotten hurt so I answer him and he proceeds to tell me how great a singer his kid is and how can he go about getting into the competition. Can you believe it? He could not have picked a worse time to ask the question. Why he thought he could talk to me then is beyond me. It continued to rain and the only thing I could do to finish the show was have the judges run up to the stage and judge the last act right in front of them. We couldn’t turn on any sound but the girls were very strong singers so the judges heard them fine. That had to be the worst night of the Rising Star Talent Competition. I will never forget it and hope to never experience it again.
