You gotta be more specific bro, everyone on the circuit has been your teammate at one time or another. Great article though (made my head hurt because I'm sick of looking at graphs and neurotransmitters)
Should've gotten points off for those khunde, they look real fake (no hook!!). Also Kaushal, stop being in front for jhummar all the time, you suck bro.
For real though, that was nasty (and Kaushal you look pretty in black)
It's one thing for the competition to know about where to put judges, but if they're judges shouldn't they know that they shouldn't be seated in the front? I'm sure they were more than qualified, but couldn't they have asked to be seated in a balcony instead?
Very untrue, it affects the outcome of a competition more than you think. As Swi said, going first can psych a team out (experienced this twice myself), going first ensures that there will not be as much of a crowd response because usually a large chunk of the audience gets there later, and the...
No, teams shouldn't have to worry about exerting themselves on stupid little mixer games the night before a comp just so they can choose their spot In the show. For the past few comps I've been to, finding out the order was the most stressed I got all weekend, it's stupid to make a team stress...
If you're that shitty team that sends in roster stuff and lighting cues and the mix super late, making a huge hassle for the competition committee, why should they even let you have a chance at going later in the show? A reward system for that stuff seems fair to me, as long as the competition...
Alright dude, you seem to be genuinely confused as to why people think the worst of you when you post on this forum, and it's because you come off as a douchebag when you post. You may have the best intentions and thoughts, but your manner of writing here is very unlikeable. When it comes to...
No one cares about this right now, this forum isn't for conspiracy theories. Be happy that our friends in Boston who are part of this circuit are safe and pray for the injured, nothing else matters right now.
There was a trend to be more creative with phumaniya a few years back, and now it's seen as less creative and more schticky because everyone did it. With some of the college teams, doing their own phumaniya is a bit of a throwback to old routines, kinda just keeping in line with the team's...
Re: ***CORNELL BHANGRA @ WORLDS BEST BHANGRA CREW 2013 - 1st PLACE***
Congrats guys, it's an amazing feeling to finish the season with a placing. Congrats especially to the other Mr. Shastri, I'm happy to see you close out your career with a W. We started doing bhangra back in 2008 and have...
I mean, the circuit's always been like this though, for every well run competition there are 2 which are run by amateurs (Bhangra Allstars comes to mind). At my first competition, we saw our liaison snorting some kind of pills at the preparty, and he wanted to drive us back to the hotel later...
Nasty performance, loved it. Only thing I have to say is that some of the dancers bend their backs a bit while dancing, especially during the shikke segment. That's really the only constructive criticism I have, sick job.
This performance was a good showing for you guys, a chance to establish yourselves. The routine was clean and folk. I loved that you didn't do some cutesy jhummar in an attempt to seem creative, you took a more traditional route and it was one if the highlights of the routine for me. You have a...
Special shoutout to the pink and green jodis, this was their first time at a big competition (and for the green jodi, their first time doing Bhangra at any competition). You guys held it down for us old farts.
Love all of you JJ boys, past and present. You guys are my role models for bhangra...
Hey everyone, we had a amazing time performing for the last time tonight, and congrats to FAUJ/CMU. If you have a video of our performance, please do not post, but rather send it to joshileyjawan@gmail.com. We will post it ourselves on Monday.
