wesleyrp Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 There is one person scoping partial shows at this at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetOFFmyDot Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Mandarins just finished. Wow. This show is absolutely crazy good. Im struggling to see a way that this show does not make finals. One minor point of concern: the massive rotating stage in the center of the field is a BEAST to load in, assemble, and load out. They isn’t much room for error before time penalties might be a concern. I know they are working hard on working out all of the kinks, which is good. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetOFFmyDot Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Blue Knights just finished. They sounded great, but didn’t offer a ton visually. Also, I’m not sure if it’s their uniforms/costumes, the props, staging/drill, and or something else but they looked really small on the field. The person next to me said they looked like a bus didn’t make it to the show. Lol i usually really like BK and their cool, super-future-isric shows, but this season’s show left me a little flat. So much talent! I’ll really look forward to see how they grow this show over the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCIdad Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 One thing about the Mandarin's - had the opportunity to hear the brass line from field level a couple of weeks ago, and I feel they are significantly better than a year ago, but not sure we're seeing that yet on the score sheet. A more complex show flow this year, so maybe they're a little slower out of the gate as a result. Will be interesting to see how that develops. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetOFFmyDot Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 BD just finished. This a great show and I love how they recreate the painting during the show. It’s fantastic. There are some great moments but I feel like the show is lacking some cohesion. I kinda find the amount of unfinished guard work a little unacceptable. (That’s a little too strong, but you know I mean... hopefully) i think this show can win it all, but it isn’t far from a lock. I enjoyed the show (something I can’t say for every BD shownthe past few years). One last thought on BD. I kinda feel like they set the tone in terms of innovation the past few years. Now, as other corps start copying/honoring/building on whatnot they’ve done, the shows don’t feel as fresh as they used to. I’m not sure if that is a bad thing. Just something to think about. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
