If any of these 10 teams go with a Live Set, does that mean they have a better chance of placing top 3 or first?
considering the True Traditional Folk Theme..

Hello,
So we had live teams apply to our competition but not enough to justify their own category which is why we had to say No to the ones that did apply as in our registration packet we said we need atleast 4 teams to justify a different category. Even though we would have loved to have a live category as we have had in the past 5 years but unfortunately this year we were not able to get enough live teams. But all the teams in this line up are Music teams only. No live team is allowed to compete in this category. Being live doesn't necessarily mean being more folk. It is however more traditional I agree. I would have loved to have them but there are only a small number of live teams out there in comparison to music teams and to get them to come out on one particular day in Detroit is not easy. But we are very excited to see the teams we have in our line up to bring a routine that is out of the box and show a different side of them and their talent at MCB!

Thanks
Gary
