TIP kids aren't as talented as you might expect.

And the few who are most certainly never perform at the talent show, because what ends up happening, is two hours of sitting listening to first year girls who can't sing or play the flute very well. There's usually at least one bearable act. Anytime when a group of guys get up there and make fools of themselves is definitely one that you enjoy watching. For the most part though, the talent sucks.

After the suckiness comes a slideshow of pictures of people that you love looking like idiots, because really, that's what TIP is about. No one cries at the slideshow, its more of a pre-cry thing. It gets you in the nostalgic mood, wihtout raising the tears.

That's what the fourth year speeches are for. Every fourth year with a soul cries while doing this, even the macho Stephen Wise shed a tear in 05. Half the audience usually cries during this as well. Then, they are forced to cry their way back to Cone to face the .

Some memorable 4th tears of term 1 2006 include:

Bridget

(came as close to a 4th year as possible-3rd year)

Sydney Bay

Among the memorable 4th years of term 2 05 are:

Some memorable 06 term 2 4th years include:

Charlotte Lehan

(Should be fourth years)

Lauren Rasch

Taylor Whitsett

2018

Term 1 had a very memorable performance. All who performed had lots of talent. We would like to recognize them on this page:

Cami Garrett - Singing "It's Over Isn't It?"

Stella Hughes and Emre Downey - Tap Dance "Best Day of My Life"

Maddy Scannel - Singing "Riptide"

Kennedy Thede - Singing "Higher"

Arya - Magic Performace

Avery Holdeman - Singing "Hostage" (chills. literal chills.)

Sydney Pettigrew - Original Poem "Black Queen" (She brought a lot of the audience to tears!)

Sophia Fox and Maddy Scannell - Singing "Stronger Than You"

Andrea Torres - Lyrical Dance "A Thousand Years"

Viji Burma - Singing "Love In The Dark" (She also brought a lot of the audience to tears!)

Mary Jann and Olivia Pulliam - Singing "Hallelujah"

Millicent Stoller - Singing "Summertime"

Daniel Richardson (Teacher) - Comedy

Mark McGuire (more commonly known as ZUCC, also an RC) and John Jing - Extremely Awkward Lullaby

Leslie Knight (TA) and Max Correa (RC) - Singing "I'm Yours"

2009

Term 1 was pretty boring... Just some girl playing the flute.

We had a lot of talent during 2009, at least term II. Term I needs someone to speak for it, but anyhoo. A couple of RCs (Josh, Joe, Alex, and Kevin) formed a band (that wasn't bad!) and performed for the TIPsters. And two of the guys from psychology (David on drums and Sanchez on guitar) with Cameron, and they formed a completely impromptu band and they played Under The Bridge by The Red Hot Chili Peppers. Lets see, we had a lot of singers (one wrote her own song though), a couple of dancers, a couple of guitarists, oh, another RC band, a poet, a drummer who was kicked off stage by two singers and then invited back for a solo, a totally amazing actress, and probably some other stuff that I forgot. No slideshow because the projector broke down/they couldn't get it to work/whatever. So, it happened at the final dance.

2011

Term 1 didn't have much, they had an Indian Accent Skit from two Indian boys, which wasn't that bad, but wasn't amazing. Though there was one girl, The ginger of Term 1, she was a legit singer and she sang Eleanor Rigby, she stopped the show, and her ears popped from the applause. Term 2 was the year people actually had talent. Singers were actually decent, some of them being legit good. Though one act was a bit boring, but amusing. Alan's telling of a joke only some people got (it was an inside joke). There was a skit about the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything and some flute playing. The showstopper had to be the Pattycake act, where Tanner and Joe stealing the show. ASU Term 1- Freakin awesome: Margaret (the Legit singer who is a ginger), Aajay was amazing (DONT TOUCH MY CROUTONS!) Hannah and her jumping roping were really good, Leslie played her flute so phenominally. So dont go saying that we didnt really have much talent!

2017 Term 2 had some dude playing the kazoo, a balloon artist, and loan sharktank AC FINANCIAL-MORE INTREST IS IN YOUR INTREST

At Duke East

TiPsters are actually just as talented as you may think. Usually, most all acts are entertaining, and the lack of first years adds some intelligent thought into a TiPster's decision on whether to or not to audition and perform in the talent show. There is usually at least one hilarious act each year and a mind bogglingly amazing one each year. There are no winners and no judges.

2013

Term 1

All this info is from a program sheet I stole from my RC's bed on the last day. The acts on the sheet aren't completely accurate, and though I corrected as much as possible, there are still some things missing/wrong on here.

Sam Jarden and Zach Toole were the MCs

• Haley Campbell performed "The Lime Tree" with guitar and vocals.
• Celluloid Visions had an animated drawing film thingy. I think that was the first one. Maybe.
• Conrad Paetz sang "I Won't Give Up". (well, most of it. some lyrics were forgotten, but he didn't give up and finished the song.) (Sorry, Conrad, I didn't know your last name and that's how it was spelled on the paper.)(I forgive you kind of, whoever you are.)
• Megan Lange played a song on the bassoon.
• Delaney Fulmer played "Blood" on the ukelele with vocals.
• Lauren Baron did an upside-down lip-sync of "Danger Days".

• Jana Giaquinto and Jessica Steckelberg played "Safe and Sound" on the piano with vocals.
• Daniel Dahlinger played "Don't Stop Believing" on the piano and trumpet, living up to his promise made the previous year. At the same time. It was preceded by a fairly long speech, but it was fairly entertaining. He attempted to use humor and was partially successful.
• Celluloid Visions had their "Film #3", kindly identified as such on this piece of paper I have so it's easily distinguishable from their other films.
• Skippy, Daniel Dahlinger, and Elyse Carley played "Home" on the trumpet, guitar, and with vocals.
• Carlos Gayou and Valeria Alvarado danced. I think she said it was a salsa. Don't quote me on that.

• Derek Tang, Sam Cacioppo, and Ryan Deibner played and match of invisible tennis.
• Julie Wang sang "Happily Ever After". (I don't remember if she did or not.)(Nope. Ching Chong lost her voice, probably from yelling at Carlos and Conrad and Stanton too much, but she is ACTUALLY TING TING)
• Kyle Conrad did some karate moves, assisted by Carlos Gayou, who held some wood boards.
• Michael Bowcutt sang "Gold Soundz".
• Celluloid Visions had another film, "Film #4", which I still don't remember which one it was.
• Megan Chung and Shelby Marquadt sang "Granger Danger".

• The 4th years performed Doctor, Doctor.

Relics were passed down.

The fourth years sang Time of Your Life in a roundabout manner.

Term 1: Staff Skit/Pie Incident

The female RC's had decided that they were going to have an act where they lipsynced to "Girls Just Gotta Have Fun" by Sophia Grace. For the finale they whip creamed the male RC's (and the RCL) which led to cream being splattered all over the floor. The Bryan Center staff who were watching the performance notified the OSD immediately that they had to clean the mess up before it could sink into the carpet. While the 4th years were getting up to perform their Doctor Doctor skits, RC Ty walked onto the stage and stated that they had been kicked out of the auditorium and were going to release 2 RC Groups at a time. The confused TIPsters started yelling and Ty clarified that everyone had to go back to Kilgo, and the rest of the skits would take place in Kilgo quad.

Just as all the TIPsters made it to Kilgo quad, it started to thunder. Everyone was pushed into the common areas and hallways and most of the 4th years ended up in O. After sitting for a couple minutes, Mary Clarke Worthington and Clark Davis, who had their guitars from the talent show, started playing American Pie and after the first verse most of the room was singing. This display of unity was the one thing that kept the fourth years calm. At some point in the song, RC Ty walked in and led the 4th years to N commons.

They were informed that the fourth year skits would take place in N basement and be streamed from a laptop using Google Hangouts. The second and third years sat in K and O common rooms and watched the remaining skits on the televisions. For Doctor Doctor, actors had to yell to be heard clearly by the audience. For Ask the Oracle and fourth year speeches, fourth years made a line leading from the laptop almost out the door and spoke into the camera one by one, going off to the side after their turn. In the end, skits and speeched could be heard clearly by the other common rooms, and even moved some RCs to tears.

2016 Term 1

• Cup Song: Andreana, Bella, and Natalie sang the cup song with really cheap cups that almost broke. They were a bit unhappy when they weren't allowed to bring cups from the Maybee (how rude!) Bella and Andreana had planned to do it badly as a joke but it ended up being not-so-bad. They still wanted it to be bad.
• I Hate U I Love U by gnash: Jenna Dillon sang I Hate U, I Love U all by herself, and got really into it. She was said to have grown devil horns and a tail whilst singing, but she can neither confirm nor deny the allegations without the permission of the secretary.

• Bella's Routine: Bella did a bunch of cool gymnastic/cheer things that confused the people who didn't understand cheer, but everyone knew that it was great. She twisted her ankle on one of her flips but she continued (YOU GO GIRL) . When she sat back down, she wrapped her ankle with her lanyard. It was...resourceful. Her ankle was amongst other things that were wrapped with that lanyard on the night of the talent show.
• Kazoos: There was a lot of kazoos. A lot.
• Beatrice, Abi, Ameena, Sophie, and Tara sang "Riptide." It was decent, which was a surprise because they came up with the idea of singing it the night before. Everyone was surprised that these 5 nerds from "Mommy" Meredith's RC group could actually sing.
• The Mayonnaise Quartet: Perhaps the best performance of the night had to go to the four members of the Mayonnaise Cult whom decided to share their satanic culture with the tipsters of Term 1. The song chosen was "May-Mayonnaise" and was sung by Lauren, Jenna, Isabella and Andreana. At the end, Jenna decided to become a real-life Beyonce and hold the last note for far longer than the others. Additional vocal acrobatics were added, however Jenna's pitch went slightly flat and did not hold the effect she was hoping for. Her Mayonnaise Buddies forgave her though, and the crowd erupted in cheers nonetheless.
• Cheyenne's Routine: Another wonderful Mayonnaise Cult member decided to bring her flag and gun and dance like nobody was watching. Well... Not a REAL gun, but still: her Color Guard skills were spicier than Omar. (Only some will understand just how spicy this truly is.)

• Jim's screamo act Jim started by announcing an that it was an inspiring song, and that, "Even though we may go our separate ways, this is a song to remind us of the memories we will always have." Then there was a chill intro and he began singing The Day Summer Ended In June by Misery Signals. We were all shocked. It was pretty damn awesome.
• Nick, the TA for Architecture (Davidson) put on a glamorous performance of Bad Romance, which explained the Lady Gaga claw he made the class do when lining up. He had a self made costume, resembling a mix between ballerina and the Sydney Opera House, fusing a mixture which could only be explained as bizarrely beautiful. It was pretty damn awesome.
• Doctor, Doctor (including normally-stoic RC John's Muppet voice)
• A beautiful, harmonized rendition of Mad World by Nick Berray, Sibo Wang, Clayton Delp, and Kobi Johnson (Big Papa). This also included Clayton's (the one in the dinosaur hat) signature chipmunk laugh, which unfortunately was cut off the video. It was pretty damn awesome.
• The Creative Writing teacher's expressive reading of of a beautiful poem by Ke-dollarsign-ha called blOw. She read with such articulation that Kesha herself would've fainted... whether that would be from the Jack (or Applejuice) ;)is unknown. It was pretty damn awesome. 
• Mo's epic Martial Arts spar with JJ. That was pretty damn awesome too.
• Evan, Art, and some other RC's rendition of "The Four Chord Song" by Axis of Awesome which is a comedy song commenting on how the last 80 hit pop songs are all using the same chord progression: I  V VI IV, or 'Don't Stop Believing' for you musically challenged folk. It was -you guessed it- pretty... cool.

2012 Term 1

Okay we had some awesome talent show acts this term...the talent show was a ton of fun for everyone.

• Stillman started the show by doing soccer juggling where he did super cool tricks. 
• Aisha (Kathleen's group) and Arjun (Sam's group) sang Anyone But You, the song at the end of Juno. Aisha played the ukelele, it was really touching.

2012 Term 2

The talent show was amazing, and well, there was a lot of talent.

MC: RC and RC Davis took us through the 3 weeks we were at Davidson. Some of their skits didn't have anything to do with the act they were introducing, so it was quite hilarious.

• Chris the RC & 2 TIPsters(Rachel and Lindsey) began the show by singing Stacey's Mom.
• Sam the RC & Leo the TIPster did an amazing juggling act that wowed everyone. While they began with a simple two balls, they quickly added new tricks and increased the number of balls that they juggled until the end, when they juggled these shiny star-shaped boxes that burst into confetti when they threw it at the crowd.
• 3 girls played piano. One of them sang to Yellow Brick Road(Kate, Mathematical Problem solving), another did a absolutely mind-blowing classical piece(Angela), and the last one did a mash up of various pop songs and a few classics.

• A TIPster(Kendra) sang Set Fire to the Rain while her friend(Stacey) played guitar.
• RHL Jim did a Screamo song and shocked everybody. Like, really shocked. Because Jim was such a nice, quiet, soft-spoken guy before, and then comes this crazy screaming, hollering guy, jumping around and practically swallowing the microphone. It was epic anyway.
• Kathleen & the rest of the staff danced/tipsynced to One Thing by One Direction.
• The New Zealand song, Jenny, was performed. ( RC John, RC , and Kyra)

• Erin S's RC group did something disgusting involving a cup of water and brushing teeth like why guys? I couldn't stop laughing though. (Allow me to elaborate, though I was not involved I remember it quite well, perhaps due to it's traumatising nature. The group walked on stage and made it quite clear that they were going to bed. Everyone laid down in sleeping bags across the stage. After a moment, one of the girls stood up. "I've forgotten to brush my teeth!" she exclaimed, exasperated, walking to a cup of water and a toothbrush that had been placed near the front center of the stage. She brushed her teeth, put some water in her mouth, swished it, put it back in the cup, and lay back down. All was silent for a moment, then, another girl stood up. "I forgot to brush my teeth!" She , innocently, and immediately some people realised what would happen- the aura of the room changed in that moment. I had to avert my eyes as she did the same thing the previous girl had done- with the dirty water. She returned to be, and all was silent. Perhaps some foolish few dared to hope what they expected to happen would not- yet- another girl, eyes opening widely, proclaimed her failure to clean her teeth. People groaned and shouted at her not to do it, but she did- the dirty water was again placed in her mouth, the dirty toothbrush again used to clean teeth. She lay back down, very little hope left in the room at that time. The silence this time was longer than it had been... then, faithfully, another girl stood, and after the first word of the now-dreaded sentence was uttered, shouting from the audience rendered the rest inaudible. People continued their noise as the cycle was replayed- brush teeth, swish water, lay down. During this... tragedy... Sean, an RC, had been watching in surprise and disgust, as we had. Finally he intervened, saying it was enough. Then, Erin S walked onto stage and drank the dirty water. Amazing.)- wow this was really well written
• Carson's interpretive dance (the love for Beyoncé was strong)
• Victoria and Sydney sang their own songs separately
• Lilly and Ben both played piano like why guys? Practice before performing please.
• To close off the show, Christopher played Pathetique Sonata 1st Movement on piano, which resulted in the only standing ovation of the night! Special thanks to Matt's RC group for the WOW, and Anna for page turning (without which would've resulted in major mess up.)

4-4-4 Skits

Doctor Doctor Crest Challenge (this one was banned in 2016)

One of the 4-4-4 year "skits" was for everyone to get on stage, brush their teeth, spit in a cup and pass it down, with the last person drinking it. This ended with East term 2 2002 with Bo drinking the toothpaste-spit. Edit by SQFreak: A similar skit also occurred at West. It was always called "Crest." Each participant would say, "I like Crest because...," add a reason, brush their teeth and spit back into the cup. The final participant would say, "I like Crest because it's so good!" and drink the cup. At Term 2 West 2001, the final participant vomited (in the bathroom, luckily) soon after drinking the toothpaste-spit.

Recently, at TAMU Term 2 2012 (and maybe 2011?), it wasn't just teeth that got brushed. In fact, each person said something different, ex: "I use Crest toothpaste because it keeps the blackheads off my nose!" Or the infamous "I use it to relieve the itch from my athlete's foot" Bee Haffey was the one to drink the water at the end, and we pray for her health.
