Observer Jon Ricci, of Wayland, outside the ballroom with his family before the show. He's also the frontman for the Boston-based band, Lansdowne.

So who are you here to see tonight?
"My brother Marcus [Ricci] is in the show. He actually won the online competition, so he's already in the top five."

Has he been working hard to prepare for the pageant?
"Definitely. He's been bodybuilding for two years and he's always in the gym."
