Rough soloists night for Crown
Brass sounds a little flat overall.

It’s unreal that one of these last four shows are not going to medal unless there is a tie for third…which I am predicting only because I just don’t want it to happen.

I will say this, Boston more than any other corps covers the entire field. Over and over again. In perfect unison.

Rifle work…eye are boggling.

That running wave sequence right across the front is so so hard to get right and it is always dead on right.

Okay here we go…

Cadets really need to bring it, or Mandarins will take fifth. Wow. WOW!

Sinnerman just officially entered that group of shows I'll throw out there if anyone ever asks what my favorite show is. Wow.
That girl on YouTube that does DCI reaction videos needs to watch Sinnerman...

Best arranged show of the year for me hands down and it’s not even close. Absolutely seamless.
Energy is INSANE!!!
Yes, easily the best designed show. Every act is cannot miss. The payoff is worth the ride…literally. I don’t know how they are doing it but Mandarins may be the next first-time-gold winner corps.

Holy #### Mandarins…
Show design is insanely creative. Brass is in your face, screamer on point!
The ballad is…what can you say?! It’s straight up Bluecoats in the best way.
Really no weaknesses. What a run they are on!

It's not the Big Loud Live thing in the theaters.
That seems like a really bad decision.

Why is there no commentary between shows?

Heh. I reached for the 1979 recording myself. How many times have they programmed Elsa's anyway?
As many times as I have watched that video, I swear I STILL weep every single time I watch it.

Out of the loop, who or what is Elsa? I also quite liked Juliet, No Walk Too Far and Harmonic Journey 2021 too

I’m sure we’ve talked about the look of the corps in teh brass and percussion, but it’s the guard uniforms that really stand out for me, with the combination of black and blue and the left arm covered in sequins, sparkling in the stadium lights. Those really evoke the look of outer space, which, with the theme of Exogensis, fits perfectly as the idea is that life here began out there.
Boston’s guard costumes are hands down the best, most creative and most theme-right of the season. Just beautiful.

So so sweet to see those kids crying at the end. Wow. Wonderful. That’s what it’s all about.

Nice addition to the show using the voices of Brandt Crocker and Dan Potter to simulate the corps getting announced at various shows across the country during the season. Percussion feature at the front of the field as well.
Doesn’t this section sound a little like Classical Gas at times?
I thought it was Classical Gas.

The Colts baritone solo…wow.

Ballad is just beautiful. Best of the season. And tonight it is dead on.
