Troopers have improved a lot and the show us starting to grow on me.i thought the guard had a good run and are conveying the emotion well.

Colts are always way better in person. They have great brass and besson57 is right on about the pit volume being too high. The boxes just don't work. Not enough back light. It'd be nice to see what we should see. They had a new ending (to me anyway) with the corps forming a giant star. Very classy.

Academy had a pretty good run. A brass player did trip on a headstone and overturn it (vandalism) but didn't appear to be hurt. They didn't draw nearly as positive a response as usual. I think the crowd is sitting on their hands until S outs and Crown perform. I hate that.

I thought Pacific Crest had a really good run. I like how the show's come along with cleaning and they did sound very balanced. Love the golden spike moment. Crest and Madison are sharing dinner and snacks tonight.

Two corps were housed here and a band camp. All the on-site parking is sucked up by the corps. The wings are filling up now but center section is very vacant except for bottom 5 rows. Ouch

Soundsport's Monday Valley Express about to perform and crowd is very diappointing at the moment.

Mostly sunny and 85 at the moment with a decent breeze blowing. Chance of a pop-up shower but no sign of that here. Should be a great night.

Bring sunglasses and a hat if you're coming. The sun sets right in your face and it gets hot!

Body cam was live Staccato fired the gun Louie was so framed!

You're welcome. It wouldn't have been possible without my aunt's phone since mine wasn't connecting properly. Last night was they first time I'd seen BK live. Fantastic show!

I didn't see it because I was fighting with my phone.

Are you serious N.E.? I was on the right 40 row T on the aisle. I looked up and down the sections as well and couldn't find a Renegades shirt before settling in. My aunt about flipped out that BK didn't receive a time penalty because of their electronic snafu.

Sorry I missed you again N.E. Next time I'll make sure I meet you. ☺

I'm really happy it all worked out and everyone enjoyed the scopes. Another great LEF!

That was INT. I think I have enough juice for the rest of the night. Knock on wood.

REALLY SORRY for messing up Pioneer and OC. I 2as having a slow Internet connection so I switched phones after OC and it seems to be working much better. Different network.

I make no promises but I may try periscoping tonight. @rchbrghrtweets or look up Rich Conti. However the search works.

I'll be there. Meant to meet you last year N.E. but ran into some old friends and missed you. I'll be wearing a Troopers shirt with the pennant on the front. Always enjoy reading your thoughts.

I'll be there. There may be one more shower to pass through that could cause a delay. Otherwise, the show should get it. I watched Bluecoats' run this afternoon. Looks like a cool show.

You're more than welcome! I work nights myself and I live on others re-posted tweets and pics so I thought I'd try to pay it forward when I had the chance. Glad it worked out since I got a twitter acct just to do this. I somehow lost my pic of Madison's company front during a transmission but I think the rest posted. Great show tonight! IMO Academy and Pac Crest are underscored. Glassmen really impressed me. Blue Stars has really made "Blue World" work after such a tough start.

I've been fortunate enough to see them three straight years now and they are an excellent corps.

Day two of the Lake Erie Fanfare will be partly cloudy, 81 degrees and NO RAIN! I will be attending and attempting to tweet at least pics @rchbrghrtweets if anyone wants to re-post.

Really about 800 Gary? That's great! I was a little worried about a half hour before show time but people kept coming. The delay helped get folks in the gate and seated before performances too.
