Giant Steps is a monster. I wish it got more time in Boston's show but I can totally understand why it doesn't. It'd be an interesting number to build a whole show around.

I love how much they haul getting to the front then the crown form.

I'm gonna have trouble breathing through this ballad again...

I know. This years opening chord is like "OMGOMGOMG it's happening!"

We're the winners. Every night.

Alright, that kid handled the questions with a lot of poise.

Last camera shot....yeah Flop on Top is getting out of control

RIFLES EVERYWHERE!

Crowd ate up the end of the ballad.

YEah we were lookin. Is the brighter line 'new' tonight? I wasn't paying that much attention to it last night.

I think that was the part where my friend saw the marimba and/or player go over the line last night.

Ballad got replayed as people in my theater were leaving before scores. Everyone stopped to listen again.

They ruined it a few shows ago when they showed it at an angle that showed how the 'magic trick' was done, so they're trying to avoid that.

heh. The growth of his Fro this summer has been fantastic to see. He's got hairography even BD can't match. The 'super hipster look' guy in the battery is the other one. Although his flop on top has gotten a bit too messy.

[notes how far from the possible pit line the marimbas are set up tonight...]

Crowd seemed hyped for Cavies. Let's get hot!

So two new "bits" added the last two nights. I wonder what they're holding onto for tomorrow.

Added last night. Got a LOT of reaction in my theater

So bloody! I knew it was coming tonight but still.

The guard. When I want to go and make a comment about describing some incredible thing they're doing, I can't because they do another one before I get finished typing.

Herald trumpets doing their thing while the guard beneath them makes me dizzy watching them.

it was quite the moment. I mean you could just see him working to say SOMETHING without stopping and asking "what they heck did you just ask?"

And the puzzled look on Mike's face last night when Steve Rondinaro asked him, "Now, what is it that the drums do?" Several people in my theater actually laughed audibly,.

This. I feel like watching them is like watching some sort of concert art version of drum corps. It's just an aural landscape. They do some interesting things with the mirrors that get there visually but it's visually a bit too subtle. But that music book is gonna get a billion relistens from me this winter.

Spartans could do a Kurt Vonnegut themed show next year!
