Just got online, missed watching excelsior (was grocery shopping). Here's my reviews of Shenandoah sound and Tradition:

Shenandoah Sound (delayed because I was making Lunch): The best I've heard this corps in years. Now just keep the momentum into next year!

Tradition: Love the new uniforms, not much else I liked to be honest. Started strong but then died off at the end.

For you guys who are there, are the seats in the center section bench style, or buckets with backs?

Sunrisers on next in their traditional uniforms. Royal blue pants, orange tops, wide silver slash, aussie headgear with oorange and white upright ostrich plume.

Huge opening impact to start the show. Similar to 1990 SCV's opening, being Carmen.

Center seats are bucket seats. Outside the 40 on side 1 are bench seats since that's where the midshipment usually sit.

The Long Island Sunrisers (in orange) are up. They were DCA champions the first year I attended DCA - 1978!

Fran Haring has some great stories about that corps ...
