The groups are so mediocre......
Every group that's gone through sounds out of tune, pitchy & all over the place to me. I hear a lousy performance & then I hear Gary say, "Go & sit over there" - what?! Is he hearing something different? What's going on?! Is my TV on the blink?
Added to that, he's also said about nearly every act, "Well, we know there was an issue with the vocals" - hello? This is bootcamp - these people's performances are supposed to be honed by now, why are excuses being made? (Say what you like about Cowell, at this stage he'd kick people out for one flat note - god knows what he must be making of this sorry crew.)The judges are behaving as if they've only got a few acts to choose from, and they've got to put people through. I can't believe there weren't better groups, but the auditions seemed to be so thin this year, we hardly saw any others. I can't put my finger on what's wrong, but this just isn't feeling right so far.......

I Was in the audience for the groups and the editing was really poorly put together IMO. Brick City had BY FAR the best reaction from the crowd & when asked why they should get through sang An acapella cover before their actual song which was pretty much sung perfect Yet they get about 15 second airtime. Rumours can't be right about this group as I'm now thinking due to their lack of air time for every performance is making Me think it's a slim chance they are through.

I like Brick City quite a bit actually, their harmonies are some of the best I've heard on the show, and Xyra seem good. That's all the positive I can say though.

I don't feel like we saw enough of the groups at all, I don't feel like I've watched a full performance from any of them except Kingston and Rough Copy. Code 4 were shown dancing a lot and hardly singing, although the singing they did do sounded pretty poor to me.

There's a theme emerging here - lack of airtime, and what airtime there was taken up with what seems to be the worst bits of the various performances. WHY? No wonder the groups get a bad press - it appears as if they're completely misrepresented in the TV shows!

Xyra were one of the best performances of the day, and the crowd reaction actually proved this. Was pretty shocked they didn't get more air time.
