Scores from show1, round 1 — Remember, the top 8 scoring teams will move on to the 1/4finals once every group has completed round 1.
Here are your scores (out of a possible 20):
Galileo – 7.58
(Secret Man Group) – 12.26
Chet Watkins – 16.5
Bear Project – 14.23
Mr. Gentleman – 15.4

The next Cash Test show takes place at The Brick Theater on April 27th.  Chet Watkins will not be performing at this show but we will eagerly be awaiting the results to see who we go against in the Quarterfinals!

Also mark your calendars people…

Starting Friday April 29th our show time will move from 8pm to 9pm every week!  That gives you an extra hour to get some dinner or head to the bar before taking in a heap of fresh Chet Watkins comedy.  A great way to start the weekend!
