Sure enough, looking at tonight's recaps, that's what did them in. Hopefully tonight is a wakeup call. With presumably limited rehearsal time in TX (due to heat), I wonder if they spent less time in sections woodshedding stuff. After Monroe, I imagine they'll have a bit more music focus. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salute to the Cadets. Mandarins have a top five show, they need to execute. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost, every judge that was the same, judged a different caption. Interestingly, only one judge did the same caption as Mesquite--Brown on brass. He gave the Crossmen a 15.2 in Mesquite and a 16.4 tonight. That was the biggest jump of any caption and it was the same judge/same caption. Interesting.

Vidal28Rdg Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 (edited) If I’m reading everything correctly, 5-7 don’t meet again in the same contest until Allentown, wild… The only remaining meeting between them until prelims too Edited July 26, 2023 by Vidal28Rdg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waliman4444 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Just glad to see the Cadets getting some love..Mandarins are going to be around for a while and deservedly so...They are one of my favorites...The Cadets, Mandarins and PR have provided a second tier competition that is more interesting than the big 4...Not that they are better, just that BD is already undefeated and appear to be on course to win AGAIN!..So that said, I thank PR,Mandarins and Cadets for providing the drama good drum relishes..peace 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fran Haring Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 I'm enjoying the titles/nicknames the OP comes up with for the various shows! Chris Berman would be proud. 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
