Tasty snares in Ausdmore's face right there on the sideline!

Ok, last one before the break. River City Rhythm. Get ready for some top shelf percussion.

Gorgeous ending.

Guardians' ballad is lush.

She's doing guard tonight in Open Class. I expect BDB to medal in guard even though they're not there. 😉

Guardians bringing such a different show this year than their usual style. But it's really enjoyable.

I like that it's in a low voice in the arrangement.

Golden Empire has such a great sound. This is a definite "step up"

The rope silks are neat

Shadow coming on! Always creative design with this crew.

On Eagles Wings soloist is great. I suspect we'll be seeing that one as he ages up.

Guest judge for vocal performance and voice overs.

Cymbal players hyping their performance and having tons of fun.

They're middle/high school by intention. They have the 'smol' charm all day. Shadow is another that is high school age by intention.

Those are some enthusiastic parents/supporters for Colts Cadets again tonight. Hah! I love it.

Yeah, they've taken a step forward from last year it seems. They're in finals again (but wouldn't be if the Old Firm was here...and if Battalion ever comes!) which is a boost. I remember some rumbling about finances and fundraising in past years but they're definitely "still here" and still bringing it.

Raiders coming on with the best used hamster wheels since Madson's! This begins the judged portion as they arrive in 12th after last night's prelims.

I like how Les Stentors features their individual talents. It's something the small corps do well.

Good save there not sneezing into what might be a live microphone for preshow... 😉

Les Stentors on next. Back with a great show after not touring down this way last year. Canada, represent!

Fix You was lovely. Great job Heat Wave!

Heat Wave coming on in Exhibition. Nature Boy and Fix You make this show great.

Leaving the field, snare drummer is all "eh...i'm just gonna jam for awhile, it's not really a cadence."

Debbie Torchia is on guard at Open Class tonight....

Would be my graddad I never met's people. He was born over there.
