This is so amazing to see! Hearing the show from the perspective of one person, rather than what we see as spectators from the stands! Cooper, I am so glad to see this! You can see how much energy is required to perform! And seeing how narrow that platform is, as you are the focus of Movement 4! This is definitely one of my saved Mandarins videos of 2023!
The emotion you have in “take me to church” is surreal. I’ve watched drum corps my whole 16 year life and I’ve grown up around this sport and this was just a different feeling. You truly paint a picture with your performance. It’s badass and it goes hard, and most ppl wouldn’t have been able to do it like you did. Wonderful performance, wonderful show, wonderful year. Great job to Cooper and all of the Mandarins and thank you for giving us a show we won’t be forgetting.
This past year's production for you guys was just delicious to the ears. If you could hear what the best cherry ice cream was, this is what it would sound like... Well, I'd say more cinnamon. Or... should I say SINNERmon!! Edit-- I forgot to say this, but your gloves are like a damaged book. I never say that a book is damaged, just loved, and holy crap your gloves have been loved. Far more than my copy of the first book that I had an obsession with. Wings of Fire Legends: Darkstalker it's for teens, but I was a teen, and it was my first favorite book. (I also might've had an obsession with the main character, Darkstalker. He really didn't deserve what happened to him in books 6 - 10, I think it was.) ANYWAY! That takes a lot, to be more loved than that.
I’m a bit late but your choreography for the ballad part to the end is so good to watch, it inspired some of the visuals in our high school marching show!
This genuinely was the show that sealed me wanting to audition for Mandarins, the performance quality from you and the rest of the corp is stellar and it shows in every run. Congratulations and keep on spinning!
I’ve been looking for a head-cam of the spinners! You guys had an awesome show! Saw you first in AZ and fell in love with it. You absolutely killed it.
