The Swiss Idol Show at the Hoosier Theater was a big succes with a full house again. First place winner was Lorin Linsey, second place was Josh Wilhoite and third place was the mother-daughter duo, Lisa and Moriah Kindler. All were very good. Last year’s winner Lucy Parker was there to entertain during the judging and intermission. It was a very good night.
