But solos and dancers are also welcome. A few groups who are known to do well participate every year, Jones said. We didn't win, but got into the semi-finals. Sires and four other members of Farmhouse have already formed a new a cappella group and have begun to practice. There's no real pressure behind it, and it's just a good way to go out and have fun.
Emcees are also in high demand.
An emcee's job is to introduce new acts and to entertain the audience between acts. I had seen people do it before and some friends had done it, so I decided to try. Mallires enjoyed last year's experience so much she is participating again this year in a skit that will be performed by Delta Delta Delta and Delta Tau Delta. The skit has a cast and crew of about 30 and will take place in a Las Vegas casino. It's also a great way to get involved with the university and meet people.
