Local America’s Got Talent contestant Jimmy Rose will be performing live tonight from Radio City Music Hall in New York City and according to the singer/songwriter it is a different world compared to back home in Bell County. “It is such a different world here in New York, it feels like I am in a concrete jungle where everything is so large and fast and hard to get use to when all your accustomed to is the slow laid back kind of life,” explained Rose. Although Rose feels like his world has been turned upside down, he is ready for the opportunity and hopes to make his hometown proud. “I am ready for this moment, I am hungry for it and so honored for the opportunity,” continued Rose. “This is the Grand Ole Opry of New York, such a historical stage and I hope I make you all proud. God Bless you all.” There are three ways viewers can vote for their hometown pick — by phone, Internet and Twitter. Each performer will be assigned a toll-free number during the show. To vote, fans need to tune in tonight at 9 p.m. to see what Rose’s number will be. The numbers will all be 1-866-60-AGT##, with the ## being the contestant number. For example, if Rose is the first performer his phone number would be 1-866-602-4801 or if he was the last performer his number would be 1-866-602-4812. Voting will open at 10:55 p.m. and will remain open for at least two hours and possibly until 6 a.m. Wednesday morning. Fans can vote 10 times per phone line used.
