Johnson Hall Whatever Festival Talent Show Announces Winners
GARDINER, ME: The Johnson Hall Whatever Festival Talent Show on June 20, 2009, once again beat the weather odds and presented 20 great acts to a large, admiring audience on the banks of the Kennebec in Gardiner. Singing, dancing, poetry, rock bands-it was all there. About half-way through the evening, a heavy mist, verging on rain, descended on the crowd. Sound man Scotty Perrow, with a good-natured grin, broke out some blue tarps to protect the equipment, and went on with the show. Host Gary Crocker worked the "taahhps" into his routine, and kept everyone laughing despite the drizzle.
After an evening of great talent, the judges awarded these prizes:
 |
Grand Prize ($200)-The Worthy Bones, Farmingdale, rock band playing the original Power of Love/Edge of Insanity |
|
1st ($100) -Mara Hayford, Augusta, singing Jo Messina's I'm Alright |
|
2nd ($100) -R&B Dance Co., Gardiner, Group dance to Jai Ho-Hip-Hop meets Bollywood |
|
3rd ($100) -Julie Krouse, Gardiner, singing Miley Cyrus's The Climb |
