Set Up for top of show

RUN THROUGH 1 - NOTES
Yodan Uchi
Slow Intro
-Alex is too flowy compared to the rest of the group. Have more sharpness at the end of each movement.

Blossom
-was bad, be sure about your part

Body
-not so much distinction between the first and the second

Solos
-Daniel - very good length and ma as first soloist
-Sarah - cue and tags were good, be careful of solo ending location
-Abi - lowering stance will make solo look much better
-Duet - work on slow-mo breaks and silence
-Kara - wonderful start but mid-solo flow needs to be worked on. Ending is great.
-Fred - no problem

Orbits
-needs more voice here to get the crowd excited

MC - Kara
-can add more details about why the donations are important

Jack Bazaar
Karc
-counting is off for some, but good job getting back on track as a whole

Transition from KarD2 -> Kronkite needs to be cleaner

Maracas
-kiai into Maracas all over the place

Lefty Roam
-back row entry can be improved

Matsuri Daiko Transition - Fred
"Matsuri Daikoooo!" MA "Urya~!" - improve the space here according to what comes before and after
Kronkite doesn't work, don't add JB stuff.

Dokokara
Drum movement - 2 drums not on beta correctly, take the time to fix

MP1
-mood change is wonderful and exciting to watch

Solo
-Debbie - thinking too much and stressful to watch
-Koji - great energy
-Alex - ji coming down adds so much, but somehow the groove needs to be added - add some accents here and there to keep the groove?
-Ernie - transition from Alex to Ernie should be practiced more

MC - Ernie
-walk to mic sooner
-Shouting help from audience - be more specific on where this should be, and maybe even practice with the audience. Give examples of Kiais - "Ha~", "Sa~"

Rei
Intro
-people counting with body - loses effect so keep it internal

Oroshi + Elements
-wonderful with great tempo and momentum

Call + Response
-good but can add more drama here to become more human coming out of being "elements of nature"

2nd Movement
-great

Solos
-kai for eachother!

3rd Movement
-Top of this is weak. It's tiring, but gotta suck this one up and hit hard!
-Ending speed up was too sudden - Fred

Transition - Alex
Enter sooner!

Rose
Great!

Transition - Alex + Ernie
Ernie should enter first
At the end of the transition jam -> Omiyage beginning could have better and more dramatic Ma

Omiyage
Kiai Section
-energy of the voices is not consistent. Serious? Fun? let the decision affect the quality of the voice and groove

Solos
-Supportiveness is great and great way to get into the Kakeai Section

A x 4
-Odaiko part is too chaotic for me to listen to. Make sure this is in unison
