Is that based on live performance or video?

Video. Not able to travel too far for performances. Gonna see my only live one for this year on Monday (today for some, tomorrow for me)

Got it. When I've seen them live, the upper brass balance is generally pretty good. You'll notice they often stage the upper brass farther back because otherwise in person they tend to overbalance. So on field mics for FloMarching, you generally get a lot more low brass sound because they're closer to the front sideline.

I've seen the Mandarins three times this season, and I have no idea how it's doing so well.  The show is not nearly as difficult as the Academy, or Colts.  I have yet to see Troopers.  I also don't think they are executing at any higher level than any other corps in there group.

Overall, good corps and good show... just not in my opinion, a finals contender
