Did someone STEEL the Pittsburgh show thread?

My 1 cent view from low side 2 of the 46 yd line for first and only live read of the year. Logistics Biggest crowd in years, if not in the history of the show. Blue Devils didn't have an off night by any means but some noticeable things uncharacteristic of them almost from the start of the weapon solo at the top.The diversity of color In their uniforms really brought out parts of the show live. The drumset player and guitarist were a hoot but seemed off but maybe the groove was off due to mic delay. Thank you Tubas for your jazz feature! Both Sides now went great. I couldn't get the Trumpet soloist high note but boy was it up there OH Ghostbusters theme tonight from the Pit before step off. Crown's integration of their strengths in bras and visual were evident all through their show where it seemed more aggressive in years past. Crownbrass delivered and while there was a little mic issue here and there their chamber groups were stellar and then they hit you with a ton of notes! Crownguard looked to have an okay run from these uneducated eyes but some shaky parts. The Crown set off a big reaction from the crowd. I liked Crowndrums show tonight. From where I sat you did get some of their exposed parts but you also don't notice them during parts of the show. The Cavaliers have a great show. It doesn't have enough wows of those in their grouping but seeing and hearing the all the throwbacks felt and sounded so great. That drumline came to play and they move so well. Blue Knights had a better shown here than what I saw on flo tbh. The members sell their show from the very beginning standing on their props in character. The show did have that BK style you come to expect over the years and guard's roping around was noteworthy as well as the percussion feature with the effects on their props. It was to see Spirit back with a good show showcasing every section. I was paying the most attention to the hornline here and enjoyed what they performed. I missed Seattle as i got in late witnesseing the bottleneck of them and Blue Knights going down the ramp to the field. The stadium sits at the bottom of hill which makes you say a prayer for the Pit and prop crews having to go up and down the fairly long and steep hill into the lots. I still can't believe how much is missed watching these shows live and all were very entertaining. Should make for a great finals weekend.- 38 replies

This Ballad was FANTASTIC in Massillon. Bugles! -
That sustain was undeniable, but I cringed when one of those Mellos stumbled up the ramp on side 2 and got a nudge from behind to get him into the set. If you sat down the middle at this show, what a feast for the senses for you. @mfrontz - yep, that was touch and go there. Also, while adventitious my seat position and frozen video contributed to the short 'scopes.
