That ballad makes me feel like a natural...

The counter is set, stage right, Natural Woman sampled into the trumpet soloist. Great rifle tosses on the end of the phrase.

Horns almost buried by the voice-over. Nighthawks is starting to take shape backfield. The GI is with his ladyfriend on the 50.

Pushing into a company front with some hip action. Scatter while trombone soloist just wails.

It's not that I'm asking her to overpower, but to use more of that singer's foment and get that jazzier sound.

Another guard member has come out in a red dress. The characters are appearing. Those runs were all done on platforms.

Pieces of Nighthawks are all over the field, lets see how they all fit together. Hornline is still just stabbing our faces with sound Smooth criminal as the hornline moves upstage right.

Wait, BD playing and moving? What is this sorcery? Great runs and running. And volume!

As we get into the final two. My unbiased prediction for finals...so far... 12th: Phantom 11th: Crossmen 10th: Mandarins 9th: Blue Knights 8th: Blue Stars 7th: Cavies 6th: Cadets 5th: BAC 4th: Carolina 3rd: Bloo

I wish she would bite more into "own" She has a great foundation, but could have really done a little more. Great show.

Trombones! Get it! Lining the chairs up. This is quintessential Bloo, jazz.

Big hit with the vocalist and horns. Guard is spinning their tails off. I like the use of chairs by the corps. Moving them while playing. Good rips mellos.

Stacks of archairs.

The guard's dance break is hot. Really embodying that time.

Tuba and singer...DM is singing along from teh podium. Sorry, s/o, I have a new crush.

A bit of "pose-&-play". They move when not playing, but Crown really has a lot going while playing just as many notes.

Dear god, Trumpets. Don't you worry about carpal tunel? Really digging this show. Not quite singable but a treat to listen to.

Nice moment mellos. And runs! Tasty. I like the uniform idea. Not uniform, but similar enough to translate well up top.

The DM loses the jacket, and the crowd goes wild. The opening moment between singer and trumpet is sultry.

Blair got the mustache wax on teh multi-cam. I just cackled over here.

Blooooooooooo!

Delay on the field, what's up, KG?

I have to agree here. Could have been greater focus on this.

Unleash the beast! It gon' get ya! (If the rest of the corps doesn't.)

The low pressure system of the drumline pulled the hornline in. Great moment.
