Kiddhan BTF,

First off, we would like to thank the Buckeye Mela board for another awesome weekend. Buckeye Mela is always one the most well run competitions of the semester, and this year was no different. To get 16 teams on stage smoothly is no easy task and somehow you guys always make it happen, this year the show even ran 10 minutes early!

Congrats to UNC and RVD on their respective placings along with the rest of the teams for killing it. Y'all put on one hell of a show.

Big thank you to our liasions, Kunj and Anchsana...wouldn't have made it through the weekend without all your help. Oh and Suji too I guess ;)

  • The UBJ feedback process was smooth and much appreciated
  • Thanks to Princeton Bhangra for coming up clutch and letting us borrow a pagh
  • Thanks to Furteelay for letting us borrow their saaps p.s. Dhir says hi
  • Thanks to Dr. Srimix, DJ JSM, DJ RB for various parts of the mix
Last but definitely not least, thank you to the entire First Class family. From helping us get ready to showing us unconditional support, this would not have been possible without you guys.

Big shoutout to Mithin Thomas for recording these videos--

Chorea was nice to watch, the creativity is always out of the roof with this team, set was entertaining to watch, Mix was fire, DJ RB (puth Jattan de mix) sounded dope, double standing stunts at the end was great
however I want to say that, there are many parts of the set where your energy level was overloaded to a point where it was not used efficiently, throughout the segments. Some segments just needed grace and clean execution and some segments where the energy was so high, it made the execution of your actions very sloppy, to a point where, you were just running around and forcing yourself to hit your positions on stage, and at the same time, and at 9:40, you Cannot travel on jandusingha/moorhchaal LoL.
overall, if there was a creativity and entrainment award, it would go to this team, but for strictly Bhangra, I can see why this got second place.
keep it up good work, from everyone.
