Yes! I know we just had an intermission break but this does feel like we just took another step up.

Hmm. We've seen these props before ....

In other news, Buffalo thread...still stay away.

Southwind coming on now.

Roku works the same way. i'll switch to the ambient crowd noise and see if we can eavesdrop on someone

Well THAT was aurally jarring. The commercial with Into the Light built up and then... Flo torture loop.

Dunno. They may as well hold scores to the end at this point with one block left.

After the break. Southwind. They're doing Ordinary World! I've always wondered how that'd work on the field.

OH yes. I loved that Forbidden Forest show. That was a harbringer of the sort of stuff they'd transition into. MCDC's soloist got me too. Anyway...dang 7R Pure Imagination sounded great.

Are they live narrating up there or is it a lip sync? Its that well done I can't fully tell.

Ok if Southwind is sitting in the 25th position, this show HAS to be in the conversation for Semis.

I love this show! Wow.

I'm just bummed I didn't get a capture of Gabe's moment last year like I did for 7R. I look for these moments every year. It's what makes the early Quarters so special. Those "this is it" moments.

Oh that soloist is great.

That was THE moment of finals weekend for emotion that year. Last year was Gabe for Troopers not wanting to leave the podium.

Last one in this block 7R. Who stole my heart two years ago in Quarters with their Sun and Moon show as the closing duet finished the show and the release of emotion had one of the pair just falling into the other's arms in tears.

Alright that was thoroughly entertaining from the Stars

Year of the false ending!

They're funning this show so much. I love it.

Some tasty brass sounds too.

HAHAHA! Drum major salute for the ages. "oh its like phantom!...uh nope!"

/pout Sorry it didn't work out.

I remember at the Ft. Wayne show in 2015 when Louisiana Stars came on and the crowd was all "aw...open class" then they made their opening hit and "OH MAN! This is only their second year?" They're really growing this group well.

Alright Louisiana Stars up next. Haven't seen them but "Featuring music of Bonerama, Daft Punk, Jacob Collier, Knower, Panic! at the Disco, and Snarky Puppy" has me interested.
