Facing off against nine other acts, Recycled Percussion rocked the house in the final round of NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” on Monday, Sept. 14.

But during the result show Wednesday, Sept. 16, America decided to crown Kevin Skinner the winner of national talent contest, leaving Recycled Percussion in third place.

“Kids at home, we are living proof that you can come from a small town with nothing much to live on, but still make it big. Thank you very much America!” said drummer Justin Spencer.

The Goffstown-based band was the last act to perform during the final round of the competition, presenting their version of “Wipeout.”

The performance started off simply, with drummers Spencer and Ryan Vezina banging out the familiar “Wipeout” drum rolls. The performance gained momentum as Spencer and Vezina ran around the stage, up and down ladders, beating various percussion items.

The performance ended in a rain storm of water on Spencer and Vezina, and Jim Magoon and Todd Griffin got in on the act as well, dumping buckets of water on each of the drummers.

“Everybody was so excited it was unbelievable. They were all on Cloud 9,” said Carlos Cartagena, the band’s manager. “That was the best performance to date on the show, and the most fun.”

Spencer’s father, Mike Spencer, said he flew out to Los Angeles for the final round of performances.

“That’s when it finally hit me how popular Justin has become here,” said Mike Spencer.

“We’re very excited and very proud of him right now. The whole band has worked very hard to get where they’re at.”

In a Twitter posting on Tuesday, Sept. 15, the band wrote, “Thank you all of the loyal fans. You rock!”

The band is expected back in New Hampshire on Thursday, Sept. 17.
