The first 12 acts performed in America’s Got Talent Season 7 Episode 14. Tonight 4 acts will advance to the next round based on America’s votes.
1/4 of the way through, I’d think I would have some favorites, but I found it all very lackluster. I guess the art was pretty good.
The first group is Michael Nejad, Shanice & Maurice, and Nikki Jensen. Clearly Michael is toast. I’m guessing the father and daughter are the safe ones, though I think Nikki has more potential. As expected, Shanice & Maurice move to the next round.
The second trio of acts is Scott Brothers, Lil Starr, and 787 Crew. Any other year I’d think people would give Lil Starr a pass, but Howard derailed her, as the judges also did with 787 Crew. That leaves us with the Scott Brothers advancing.
The next group is David Garibaldi & His CMYK’s, Jarrett & Raja, and the American BMX Stunt Team. Jarrett & Raja blew it with an act that I didn’t really get in the first place. American BMX Stunt Team was interesting enough, but they just couldn’t compete with David Garibaldi, who moves with his CMYK’s to the next round.
That leaves Edon, Todd Oliver, and the Distinguished Men of Brass. One of these acts will be eliminated right away, leaving the judges to choose between the other two, who came in fourth and fifth. I didn’t really care for them, but I didn’t imagine the Distinguished Men of Brass getting the boot over Todd Oliver. That leaves the judges with a choice that was obvious regardless. Howie votes for Edon. Howard makes it two, and Edon advances to the next round. Sharon agrees with this decision.
