Somehow I missed the title of the Troopers show until tonight.... now the rope actually makes sense.

Ok, it wasn't just me. The small ensembles will be a lot more effective once in tune.

This started stronger than it's ending. There's potential here though!

Front ensemble caught my attention there for a bit

Musically, really enjoying Madison this year.

Right! What's this thing called rain people speak of...

I definitely walked away from the Cincinnati show with a different take than many on here as well it seems ... the top 4 will not remain close for long.

This makes me want to go and re-watch some of those Cavies early aught shows.

2 AM! They're doing the Lord's work.

Crown returning to its roots but in a refreshing new way. Love it!

I didn't see the pizza until a few on here mentioned it..... now I can't unsee it.

This is the reason I tuned in.

Intense salute!

Musically, really enjoying Colts this year.

I was a bit underwhelmed by the park performance, but now after hearing and seeing this on the field.... wow. It really is a total package deal. Lots of great sea imagery throughout. I was a big fan of BAC's show last year, but I'm already liking this more.

I really enjoy that show. It's very Cadets! Battery is tasty. The unis work for me.

I guess I never realized just how much my ad blocker worked until reading this thread ha.

Working overnight and red meat are also possible carcinogens according to the WHO's IARC. I don't drink diet drinks, and avoid artificial sweeteners where possible (they just don't taste good), but labeling something as a possible carcinogen doesn't mean it poses an actual risk under normal circumstances. Aspartame is one of the most studied substances in the food supply. It's probably best to wait and see what the IARC's full evaluation actually shows. Aspartame breaks down quickly in your gut into phenylalanine , aspartic acid and methanol. The first two are amino acids people consume all the time and is present in a lot of foods in larger quantities than you'd get from aspartame. Methanol is simple alcohol, something else people consume all the time from eating fruits and vegetables. Of course none of that means it's 100% safe, biology is crazy, but unless you have phenylketonuria or you're consuming an ungodly amount of this stuff it's probably not something to worry about. If you wanted to go full conspiracy, you could say the sugar industry is behind this new designation. 😆

A great night of drum corps!

Agreed. The bones of this show are better than last years. Bodes well!

Best I've ever seen Mandarins. So much to love about this show, and my favorite of the season so far!! Do it up Devils!!

Plenty of cheering where I'm sitting.

Yeah, ~143 I believe.

Great weather as usual.

Agreed. I really enjoyed it, but I don't feel that "it" factor yet. Not like I did with Down Side Up. Highlight for me tonight, percussion! This is going to be a great season.... great shows top to bottom!
