Bloo is incredible 

perhaps only beatable by BD, but time will tell

obvious excellence across all captions

staging and arranging simply brilliant

one criticism is when they crank up the bass so loud I couldn’t hear the corps several times- I’m sure they will balance that out quickly

that performance felt like an 80 but DCI will regulate the scoring this early, so 77

Just got to seats 

delayed our arrival as one in our party isn’t in the best of health to handle the heat

fortunately it’s dropped to a more manageable 87 and the sun has set 

got to see Music City

corps has a really nice sound and several impactful effects in the show, entering as a steam locomotive and then a big “explosion” which leads into a nice solo on Hallelujah. Big full field coverage from the guard on white silks closed the show. I enjoyed them, it’s a fun approachable show that should grow all season

intermission now 

It's a really fun show that will be enjoyable seeing a few times. The ragtime in the pit is good.

The crowd at the Akron show looked small too, thats concerning.

Small and sweaty 

maybe 1k... maybe 1500

i would imagine today’s heat badly dinged the walk up, no one lined up at tic booth when I arrived (which was a bit late) 

Was hoping for bigger advance

Both the Akron show and this show are probably impacted by the fact that both have big August shows later on.  (Akron being just up the road from Massillon.)  The Akron crowd was actually larger than last year's June show which had to be held at Massillon.

The Mason crowd was packed as was the Pittsburgh show.
