I loved the King Schuyler Georges, also any performance with Renee!

What I wonder is with all that cash they're raking in, can they not invest in a better sound system? I get its gritty and like street performances but that sad mic has seen better days.

I read that they planned on returning in the spring with a better sound system, thank the lord.

 

My favorite performance was when the Schuylers sang Alicia Keys. Those ladies should record an album together.

The last 2 times I was at Ham4Ham I couldn't hear a word and I wasn't that far away.  I'm pretty sure that LMM tweeted they would be coming back in the spring with a much better sound system.

Half the fun of the Ham4Ham shows is watching LMM's reaction to them.  He often looks on like a smitten school girl.  It's adorable.

I love many of the ones mentioned.  I would have broken down in tears if I was at the Lea Salonga one. Schyler Georges is great.  The Kyle Jean Baptiste is heartbreaking.  I love the one with Stephen Trask.  Also enjoyed Norm Lewis recently.

Regardless of the contest, "Schuyler Georges" is always the answer for me!

The ladies singing My Shot is also awesome. For some reason the gender bending ones are the funniest.

Here is Lachmore with a cool orchestration.

Lachmore is extremely talented too.

I'm out of state so the only ham4ham I've seen in person so far was Kyle Jean Baptiste. That was awesome and I made sure to get a nice front row spot. I loved how excited they both were.

 

My favorite is obviously the Schuyler Georges. Someone on youtube put together a pretty nice multi-cam compilation of that one. https://youtu.be/yhUFZZ5sVrc

 

Other favorites include Laura Benanti with Jared Grimes. I can't get enough of his dancing.

Norm Lewis, Kelli O'hara, Hamilton's kids, and Lea Salonga.

 

Weirdest definitely was Oak's Mickey Mouse Defying Gravity.

I think they should make it more of an official thing. Right now it seems like random people are going up to sing. My favorite was the girls ensemble singing my shot.

Loved the Steven Pasquale Ham4Ham, especially seeing how jazzed LMM was to present his DO NO HARM co-star.  Can someone please find and post?

It's officially whoever LMM invites to do it, which seems pretty official.
