No shortage of crazy shit going on here. I liked the set overall but maybe a few things that came to mind if you care:
There is such a thing as overpacking your set. We used to get wrecked for this all the time in judges meetings and I personally would think that the judges telling me that were...
Best performance of the first half of the year from any competition imo. That intro was disgusting. Red and Dark blue jodis were extremely engaging and I had to watch the video a couple times before I started even watching other people. Variations in jhummar were ok I think you guys could...
I think based on the fact you went to Burgh and because of your name, you guys will naturally be compared to Warriors. This team has a much different style which I like (a bit calmer esp based on music selection and mix) and if you guys can develop a few more segments with the same kind of...
Already talked to some of you about this in person but great job overall! Obviously placing worthy and I thought you guys were 2nd. Couple notes if you care:
- Try not to waste beat drops on things people have done before. One example I'll use was saaps. I think the saap segment was nice but...
At face value I really enjoyed the set live. I was watching more as an audience member than really trying to be critical but I did really like the style you guys came with. I too didn't understand the theme live but I respect the attempt and I think you guys should try doing something like that...
Best Coed Team: Buckeye (UNC is garbage)
Best All Guys Team: SPD
Best All Girls Team: Vancity Girls. Only went to clutch last year but they were dope
Best US Team: FCB
Most Improved Team: The collegiate circuit in general. Making it competitive with the rest of the scene again. I'm glad we are...
Comp was dope. Performances were dope. LA is dope.
One thing I will say though is that you guys clearly have great funding and fundraising so as a performer I would love to have better food on the day of the comp. Subway is easy but that 6" sub doesn't have much in it. I know sometimes food...
Brad I thought you were blowing smoke when you were talking smack at Big 10 but you guys really brought it! I think you guys are getting better and better at dancing but the set design is really the next step. After coming up with a segment try answering some questions:
"Are there fresh and new...
Every performance that Howie has ever been a part of has a chaadre malfunction lol. But other than not pinning properly, you guys were really solid. Dancing level was high and energy was significantly better than Burgh. The AEG comeback keeps going strong keep it up!
My second favorite set of the year ;)
I think in the end you guys did an excellent job of adjusting as the year went on. You guys were so willing to change choreo and change the set that it was almost like we were competing against a completely new team every few months. Your ability to learn...
Damn this was fire. Furteelay is once again a force to be reckoned with on this circuit and I can't wait to see how you guys progress with such a young team going forward. Nasty dancing, good formations, and a great mix as usual. Also shoutout to my boy Bobby. I don't know if this is actually...
Hello BTF,
Here is our video from Blowout 24! Just want to say thanks to the committee for another great competition and for making this one of our favorite weekends of the year for a third year in a row! Want to give Cal and UNC big shoutouts for their placings. Always great to compete against...
Sup BTF,
Here is our performance from Big 10 Bhangra where we placed 3rd! Competition was a hell of a time and here are a few quick shoutouts:
- Thank you to our wonderful liaisons. Our team is a little loud and obnoxious and I'm happy you were willing to deal with us!
- Big 10 committee for...
Forreal you guys should've come to blowout. This was a really entertaining set and I watched you guys on the ADZ stream I thought you guys were nasty. Couple quick things for next year for you guys:
1) Don't settle for decent ideas. I think you showcased segments where you had great dancing...
Great set! This was a super strong performance and I thought you guys really raised the bar in terms of execution and formation construction. Just some thoughts:
- Chimta was cool but the choreo (other than that dope flip behind your back) was really similar to your kato segments from years...
People are gonna be stealing choreo and formation ideas from this performance for the next 4 years. As usual, you guys put on a show that was kind of ahead of its time. These variations were nuts and that transition into the prophe-c jhummar seg was so nasty. I wish you guys came with 12, but...
From a dancing perspective this is crazy. I mean unbelievable energy and just sheer execution from dancers 1-16. The fact that you guys are collegiate makes all of us here across the pond scratch our heads as to how you all train dancers so well. Really great job!
One thing I always wanted to...
