I think BD are the ones that will have to work the hardest to hold their spot/gain in the top 3 actually.

It's called

They're giving it 30 mins then calling it if it isn't clear

I really love Madison's music but I really don't understand how it fits their show at all. Their synth bass is also the most offensively loud I've ever heard from a corps.

I'm hearing Crown won brass and guard last night, 3rd in percussion. That's fantastic.

Any idea of attendance numbers for Atlanta?

They didn't do it at ensemble this afternoon so I don't think so.

I don't think any of the top three will slow down, as they all have plenty of changes and additions coming between now and finals. Especially Crown's new ending which I predict will be in by Allentown. Cadets could surge a lot or drop to Cavies depending on how much more changing they do vs cleaning. SCV are probably near peak for their show without additions, same for Phantom. Can't wait to watch all of these tonight!

Who's at their rehearsal at WF right now besides me?

They have a new ending, just waiting. This was from a marching member when I asked if they were putting it in tonight.

Crown has a closer still coming. They are holding their hand a bit longer.

Yup, her second show.

It fits Crown's shows for the same reason it would be weird in a Blue Devils show. It's part of the corps identity and tradition. Audiences connect with it for that reason, so it's a great moment to highlight towards the end of a program.

WHAT A SEASON! Great night, huge congrats to Bloo & Academy! Proud of Crown as always. Really like how BD's show is coming along as well. Make no mistake, they won't stay in 3rd.

1 in 3 given the past week. I think the top three will remain within .6 of one another overall. Performance order might give Crown the boost. I know that doesn't affect judging, but it affects crowd reactions/corps' hype levels and can give them a moral boost.

But got the order wrong ;)

I agree. Total package like BD now.

Well I guess I agree with the majority pretty well, because those are the 5 I selected.

Tied in GE, Crown win big in visual, Bloo take music by a tenth.

Just saw scores. Alright Crown! This season is going to be a burner.

Any thoughts where Cadets will end up after their big changes? Also eager to see how close Crown and Bloo are tonight.

Crossmen and Academy

Wow, I can't wait to see where Crossmen and Academy wind up this season. I think they both might end up making some big jumps.
