I'm very glad to get your input on this. Like I said, I don't know how this music stuff works.
I'm with you, raising the age limit wasn't such a good idea. It added a bit of interest at first, but it also added complications.
I'm glad AI raised the age limit this year. It may complicate things, but it also makes the show much more interesting.
