I think this highlights my main gripe with these shows
That kid can play something easy for anyone his age that has had a few months of trumpet lessons, but can do it whilst doing a stupid dance and looking cute. I'm sure there are plenty of young Australian trumpeters (or whatever) with genuine talent and flair who are far more deserving of praise, and would inspire others to take up music rather than novelty.
(It was still quite funny though).
