Liahona Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I have Mandarins over Scouts..yes I'm in the minority...Loved Mandarin's sophistication of show concept and sheer energy so much better... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westcoastblue Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) Crossmen trumpet solo from the start sets me in the wrong direction and it is largely downhill from there. I tried. All season. Really. Just does nothing for me in any way. Would much rather see Mandarins and Madison again.

KVG_DC Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Crossmen sounding so big here. Visually the show is a wash for me but I'll be listening again! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All season. Really. Just does nothing for me in any way. Would much rather see Mandarins and Madison again. I'm in the same boat (although the opening trumpet soloist is great). I know crossmen are solidly in, I just haven't gotten into their shows for a few seasons in a row now. They're nice, always nice. I'd rather see Mandies & Scouts again tomorrow night, although Xmen are clearly laying down a performance that won't allow for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shofmon88 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Is it just me, or are Crossmen having lots of little ensemble timing issues tonight? I feel like I keep hearing almost-tears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that point, though, I'm sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
