Either they don't have computer access, or they're still at the auditions (6 PM eastern time)!

I was #52, but didn't make the cut. I got as far as lip-syncing to "The Candy Man". I thought I was doing well, but apparently not. Still, it was pretty cool to see Kevin Clash and Jane Henson there.

Thanks for the report. You were #52, how many more do you think there were behind you?

I'd say at least 10-20 people.
Interesting. Give me some details. Did you use any real muppets or just your own puppet? Also, did you get to talk to Kevin and Jane? Tell us about it I am very interested.

They gave us ping pong ball eyes which we strapped around our middle and ring fingers. Unfortunately, I didn't get to talk to Kevin and Jane.

Thanks, but it was only the first part of the audition. Everybody got a chance to do the lip-sync. :stick_out_tongue:
