I like that local talent is having their own competition. The American Idol type situation is so vastly huge that the time commitment alone can be restrictive. This sounds like a lot of fun and a big success. Bringing back the past winner and then adding special guests is a plus for bringing in a crowd. I hope this continues and that other cities will do the same. Having more realistic competitions that van be fit into an already existing schedule will hopefully allow this new tradition to go on.
