Clash of the Choirs

So I'm hearing all this buzz about Clash of the Choirs. Turns out (from what I can tell) Patti LaBelle is just directing (or leading) one of the choirs. They are entering the competition with other choirs.

As I'm listening to this blurb from Patti, I'm thinking let's go to NBC and check this out. In search the show, I find the OFFICIAL RULES. Turns out that the choirs still have until December 10 to submit their entry(if they meet all the requirements). Here is a small section of the rules that discusses the submission period:

HOW TO PARTICIPATE: Each individual Choir Group must designate one of its members, directors, or other person serving in a supervisory role as its representative (a "Choir Representative") to submit an entry in the Challenge on behalf of their Choir Group. The Choir Representative must be at least 18 years of age or older and the age of majority in their state of residence. Beginning 3:00PM Eastern Time ("ET") on Monday, December 3, 2007 through 11:59 PM Eastern Time ("ET") on Monday, December 10, 2007 (the "Submission Period"), a Choir Representative may enter their respective Choir Group into the Challenge by 1) logging on to www.nbc.com/clashofthechoirs (the "Website") and clicking on the "CLASH OF THE CHOIRS "HOLIDAY MOMENT" CHALLENGE " banner/link, 2) registering and completing the official registration form in its entirety (including the name, daytime telephone number, address, city, state, zip code, age and email address of the Choir Representatives and the full names of all of the members of the Choir Group), 3) following the posted instructions and these Official Rules (including the Terms of Service (see below)) to create a video recording of your Choir Group’s performance (a "Video Performance") of one of the music choices provided to you on the Website (the "Tools") (see below) in accordance with the posted requirements and these Official Rules, and 4) submitting the Choir Group’s Video Performance by clicking on the "Submit" button.


You can check out the full set of OFFICIAL RULES at NBC.com. Keep in mind the above is only a small section of the full set of official rules. Formortv has no connection to NBC or this competition, and is solely reporting its findings to all those interested.

At NBC.com you will also find videos like Nick Lachey searching for a winning choir. There are other videos for you to browse also. This should be interesting to say the least.

You can tune in for the two hour series premiere Monday, December 17 at 8/ 7 c.
