That opener melted my face off

Both Mandarins and Bloo playing Agape, this is gonna be an interesting year.

mandarins with a full line of bones again?

"Voo Carray" got it 😂😂 Anyways for my actual comment If they clean up the show, specifically that ballad, they are gonna go places trust

Reminds me of back in the day BD

IMHO it was the absolute best show of the night!!! 💜🐉

There is a LOT of drill to clean, esp on the front end. Le clusterfuqqe a vieux carré. They sound good early on though. Tuning issues as we get later in the show. The guard… some dance days may help clean timing and technique overall. The “ghosts” need a rethink. That particular fabric ain’t it/ has crossed over to goofy. Line’s pretty tight, but there’s moments when what’s unraveling around them has them in a slightly different neighboring show. There’s tons of potential here, a million spots where they’re pointing toward what it should be. It’s just gotta step forward from good hs musical to DCI precision. I’ll be excited to see them later in the season.

i was a little zoned out just binging videos at 1am and MAN THAT OPENER WOKE ME UP

That one trumpet with his mic still on😭

Put hair-thin straps on those hats !!

THIS IS INSANE

I love how they added the Sousaphones

That brass is LOUD 😮

Best show of the night

mfw the early season recordings sound better than the finals recordings last year; hope flo dont botch finals recordings, because this is sounding NICE

I'm ngl the opener was great, I liked the closer but it was lowkey mid

The beginning was so cool. Huge guard.. gonna need to really clean all that. What are the white sheets representative of?

7:45 BEAUTIFUL !!

seeing this live was amazing

WOW at that open!!! Great job!!

Yessssss i love you mandarins🎉❤ this sounded so much better in person😊

Those blacked out snares and quints are freaking awesome

Renegades Sound and Look. Very impactful!

Guys for future reference, it is not an alto

Definitely not your mom that keeps coming over in the middle of the night.

Somebody watched H.L. bourgeois 2023 show lol

This has got to be my fav show I’ve seen so far this year. Top 3 rn are Mandarins, Bluecoats and Phantom.

Mmmm. I like the uniforms so much better than last year. I just don't get why so many people (and judges) see them as a top-6 corps. They are sloppy (I know it's early, but commpared to the other shows I've seen thus far) and there's very little actual marching. The opener was effective - almost old school in impact - but the strongest moments like this were park and play. The color guard is barely top 10. Sorry.

Get the trombones OFF THE FIELD. Marching at these speeds they are DANGEROUS!!!!!

Well this show doesnt do it for me. Also this brass might be loud, but so not clean and out of tune. Especially the high blowers are out of tune.
