DrumcorpsmademeaTuba Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Very glad that audience members aren't judged. Very bad timing issues with those sticks :w00t:/> The first half of that show, I actually wasn't sure if we were going fully into the realm of silly and slapstick but we ended up doing just that. Quirky show, definitively Surf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim K Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 I'll do Surf and Academy together since I did not get to do a post after Surf. Surf got the crowd roaring, no surprise, but the show was much cleaner than Allentown. The highlight was Aretha. There also seemed to add few new guard dance moves. As far as Academy is concerned, their show is entertaining and I feel has good content. Had a hard time getting people to join in "Piano Man," but it's a huge stadium. Enjoyed both shows.

fsubone Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 My only beef with Surf is the drill design. Everyone is in different colors based on section, but the drill never really integrates them together. There are a few moments, but it seems like everyone is always just with their section. With the different colored uniforms, it becomes really apparent. With the color scheme, was hoping to see more rainbow sets with the kids, like we saw with Cadets a few years ago. Just my thoughts of course. I could just be an idiot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georogers27 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 I really really like mandarins show. From music, to visual, to even narration - it's great. Though seems a little heavy on the synth today. Best show ever from them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well written, well performed (obviously professionally recorded) and not over the top of anything melodic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peel Paint Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Mandarins are doing some very good things out there--truly some nice musical moments--but there is way too much chatter for my taste. Seriously SHUT UP AND PLAY. Let me figure out the story with the drill and the music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
