It's over

Canadian Idol has churned along all summer. The musicians were thinned down to two people and last night it was time for the ultimate winner to be announced. Brian Melo was the winner and a huge congratulations to him. Hamilton Place was crammed to the rafters with fans who sat through the whole finale awaiting the announcement. Was it loud? You bet Was it fun? absolutely. It was fantastic to see all the support from the city and the fans. From politicians and local music legends to the fans themselves everyone was there and cheering and screaming.

Here's an idea of what it looked like.
