Not bad, considering it is still early in the season. Most of these problems will sort themselves out as the band becomes more familiar with these charts. Keep in mind that people going backwards are correct - they can't adjust to you, so you adjust to them. Also, sound is delayed in traveling across the field - soloists should listen more and band should listen less and watch more. Make it look like you MEANT for that chart to be there and it will look better. Look forward to seeing more!
can't say I agree with *all* of the percussion writing, but there's some nice moments in there where the drumline really complements what's going on in the winds. it's nice to see (hear) them succeeding with some meaty parts
I'm so glad there's a drop at the end of Jupiter! Of course, it's very easy to see mistakes in this show because of the difficult charts. Worst flags I have ever seen. The long curving lines are usually off. The circles do look like circles, so that's good. The crossover in 8:13 looks like it could've gone worse. Spacing is an issue. A lot of the big points in the music aren't as effective as I anticipated. This is probably more powerful in person. But I can't wait to see them at States.
Damn. We were baus.
