congrats to all the teams
I normally don't post but figured it I might as well since I went to Bash.
PANJ boys: good energy from most of the team, solid performance but was lacking a "wow" factor. For whatever reason, I personally was not feeling there performance. Regardless, they still performed it well.
ABC: killed it. great performance. Some slight mess-but overall amazing energy and routine. hometown crowd was definitely feeling the performance. the kunda swing/jump, two-man spinning tower, and three man tower at the end were siiiiiick. Should've place for sure.
Duniya: exactly what you would of expected of duniya - CLEAN. they brought out some kids - maybe 10 years old - at the beginning of their routine which hyped the crowd. pretty entertaining set!
PCAC: they went all live for bash. singer was great but there seemed to me something missing from their performance. i feel you always have to give props to live teams since its so hard to perform, but there wasn't anything extremely special in their performance to set them apart from the other teams.
Bhangra Knights: Very good performance. Kept the energy up the entire routine. Not surprise to see them place at all, it was well deserved!
Guardians of Bhangra: Sick mix but they were unforunately a little messy. One suggestion would be to try to switch uniforms. The one color, same uniform is pretty much done these days and looks a little old school.
Jawani: Absolutely killed it!! Amazing energy! Had a crowd that was pretty much quiet the entire night screaming throughout the performance! Even went live for a couple minutes in the middle of the routine and again, KILLED it. NO idea how they didn't place.
Rutgers: Solid performance but had some slip ups which ultimately left them out of the running for placing. Opening sher was pretty sick though!
GWU: Same thoughts as Rutgers - solid with some messups. One of the dancers had some issues toward the end which I hope were nothing serious!
BMW: From the mix to the routine - everything was pretty solid this this team. Great energy throughout the performance. Incorporated some nasty gimmicks including a tower while the base is jumping!
All the teams did an absolutely amazing job!!! However, I must say the judges did a HORRIBLE job. The final placings were: 1. BMW 2. PANJ 3. PCAC/Bhangra Knights.
But honestly, there is absolutely NO WAY that Jawani or ABC shouldn't be in the top 4. Jawani absolutely killed it on stage and I'm surprised they didn't take home first. Besides ABC, which was a hometown team, Jawani was the ONLY other team to rock the crowd and keep everyone screaming. No offense to any of the teams placing but both ABC and Jawani were robbed! I do not understand how neither of them placed! Both were clean, energetic, and killed it on stage!!! What also doesn't make sense is that the judges were said to "deliberate and come to a consensus" after all the performances....how the hell do you decide in a tie if there 5 judges?!?! How do you not just pick a team for 3rd place? I can understand being under difficult circumstances in picking between teams but these guys were chosen as judges to makes these decisions....they need to me made!
Finally, based on the judging descriptions, I would say that less than half the judges were qualified to judge, either due to lack of knowledge or affiliations with competing teams.
My placings;
1. Jawani
2. ABC
3. BMW
Jawani, hands down, were the most entertaining team. I am speechless that they did not place. Watch the video and you'll see what I am talking about.
I thought ABC/BMW/Bhangra Knights all had similar energy and solid routines. All three could swap 2nd and 3rd. Only reason I put ABC 2nd was b/c I thought they were very clean and danced as a team throughout (as opposed to the other two). No one person stood out and they all rocked it. They also had some sick stunts. BMW and Knights were very close though.
Overall, great competition with a lot of talented teams.

overall the competition was ok.... The judging was probably the worst all year...
-How does abc not even place with a set that just got them first?
- From wat i heard ( i was backstage) jawani killedd it and deserved to place
-The third place tie? a live team and a modern team. how does that work?

PANJ boys: Nice routine...but from where i wuz sitting some dancers were were messing up. Not so clean. Some dancers had great energy sum were very low on energy over all energy wuznt consistant throughout the performance. Nevertheless gud perfomrance, vardiya were nice
ABC: Killed it, mann u guys shudda placedd for sureee.. Same routine from ipff but not as clean as ipff. goooo gurpp(PB) nixt time plzzz wear a vestt we dun wanna see ur goods shakin on stage
Duniya: Simple routine 5 guys 5 girls, clean routine but some of the dancers were not as talented as the others, kids were awsome especailly the little gurl on the left.
PCAC: went live... dancers were not in synch with eachother, dancers that kept goin in the backline they lost their smile and energy and as soon as they wud come in the front line they would go all out and the smile would return. seen u guys have better perofmrances.
Bhangra Knights: Great energy you guys also deserved a place but you guys were a little messy but ur energyy blew everyone away.
Guardians of Bhangra: Very good first performance...you guys did cud considering you guys only practice like twice a month since u all live so far away from eachotha.. Nav killdd ittt on chimttaaaa (official PB Chimta Player)
Jawani: Awsome performance you gurls did great. The diagnal line jumps were sickkkkkkk. Over all great energyy and very clean... but your live segmant shudda been either in the start or the end. Over all killer perfromance best of the night...
Rutgers: Had an alrite start and performance pikdd uppp towards the end but stamina wise they started going downhill. They had some very nice formations that were excecuted well. Overall decent performance
GWU: You guys were pretty gud but had a messup toawrds the end. One of the dancers i dunno if he was tiredd or had a breakdown of sum sort cud not finish the performance and started walking it. From where i was sitting it looked like he was laughing very hard but i dun think that is the case lol. Gud perofmrance till that part.
BMW: Goood energyy but i feel the dancers are not in synch with eachother. Some of the stunts were the same from last year. Gud formations and perofmrance. Dont like the white kundey as they look like broom sicks. And they seemed like they were hella light.

Congratz to ABC and Jawani, they did an amazing job at Bash. Both teams were clean and executed moves, stunts, and gimmicks very well. Both these teams definitely deserved to place.
