Vista CA 7/5/09 - Last California Show

Arrived at John North High School in the early a.m. Had two short, but very productive rehearsal blocks today. The runthrough was very good, the staff was impressed! We did have a bit of a drive in front of us, as our housing was about 65 miles from the show site.

The performance that night was definitely the best of the weekend. One indication: "Partita" which is the Absolute Velocity portion of the program, held together from a music ensemble standpoint and the visual book looked more under control. The changes in the guard staging during the ballad also came across tonight. Overall, the corps members seemed very happy with their show when we circled up after the performance.

One last meal (of course) at the show site, then back home for a short week. Monday - off; Tuesday - rehearsal and load the trucks; Wednesday - off; Thursday - fly out to Colorado and start the Sacramento Mandarins 2009 DCI Tour!
