DCIdad Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 I thought Mandarins performance was excellent! Not sure how that the tarp issues with the wind will impact their score, if any. Wish we could see Scouts right away for a comparison. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Schehr Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Would love for Mandarins to make finals. Beats the stink hole of 13th place. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim K Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Mandarins just finished. Can't help but think next Friday in Indy will be interesting. Very original and intriguing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftwdrummer Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 That's a BEAST of a show. Major step up for Mandarins in design and performance from last year. And kudos to the guard for fixing the tarp as they went! That was a heck of a recovery. I'm not sure they make Finals, but if they miss, it's not for lack of trying. posted from the DrumScorps app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musicman1084 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Absolutely love the Mandarins show and still hoping they make finals. That ballad and reprise of Sound of Silence are some of my favorite moments of the year. The writing for the drum feature is #### cool, as well. Unfortunately, I feel like they've gone in the wrong direction the past few weeks with some design choices. The tarp, the netting, the voiceover... all completely unnecessary. They could have easily added some backdrops that they flip over with Rorschach inkblots if they really needed to get the theme across, rather than the incredibly cumbersome (and dangerous) tarp unraveling. You can't even really make it out because of all the glare. Hopefully they take an "addition by subtraction" approach to this coming week as they push for finals. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
