Yeah it is echo-ey. Sounds better on Flo, actually.

Gotta be better than the old Hoosier Dome.  That was an acoustic marvel in how it could both echo for days AND absorb sound so you couldn't hear 10 yards across the field...

Opening is my favorite part of this show.  

Makes me think of '79 Vanguard, who also opened with Verdi's Requiem.

in the past, their shows often contained a lot more whimsy.

Ok. Yes, it worked so well for them, but I feel like they killed that in 2018. There was an attempted revival last year, but it didn’t seem to take. As a new identity, this year is a better track than 2018-2022.

Appreciate some of the unique percussion techniques and instrumentation in this show.  Some is more successful than others, the bass drums sounded decent in person.  

Yeah, they're doing some neat "let's make weird noises" in this show like they used to again.  I'd agree that some work better than others.

How did they judge there?

This show makes my Prince Albert tingle.

Have you seen the Mandarins this year?  🤨
