kevingamin Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 HUGE sound from the horns when they first come in! I see people applauding already. My first viewing of Mandarins live. These uniforms look even better in person. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Already, the Mandarins have made use of micced brass ensembles on the front sideline twice.. Also, there's that trombone line, the first line to march a full show in DCI. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Half the guard is on the center stage wielding rifles. The guard uniforms are perfect for this show. Mandarins just went full out on the weird this year and you can't hep but get drawn into it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevingamin Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Then there's this rendition of True Colors. I'm curious as to how this version came to the design team's attention and how much it affected the show design. The stilt walkers have arrived. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
