Ok well it’s not THAT big...but it sure was a monster HIT!  I was out at each of the five locations, working not singing, and I could not believe the number of singers and the great talent we have in the area. We had our biggest turn out at the last 'Mic at the Mall' in Largo and that was during an ice storm!!!!! BUT ITS NOT OVER. After Tuesday we'll have five finalists and then it is up to you to pick our 1st MIC AT THE METRO WINNER.  You can check out the five finalists live on our 5pm show this Tuesday and then all week you can watch them and vote on myfoxdc.com under the entertainment tab.

 

Now that you have seen the competition, you might think that YOU could have been the big winner. Well no one ever said this was the last one so stay tuned and check my blog because as producer of 'The Mic' I'll be the first to know. Happy Singing!
