Ten quartets make the final where they sing two songs. Their singing is outstanding, they express great mood, and make songs come alive. To tell the truth, they thrilled the audience. In the semifinal, The Ritz sang two longtime favorites, Liles says. But victory was no sure thing.
Scores are cumulative, so it takes all six songs to win.
Through the second set, another quartet, Keepsake , from Tampa, Fla., was tied with The Ritz . By the final, Liles says, the audience knew one of the two would win, although no scores were posted. In the final round, Toledo sang two songs that brought down the house. It was wonderful. These are four neat guys who can really sing.
