After listening to @leo, @jeffjarvis, and Paris Martineau talk about Prometheus on Intelligent Machines, I had to go back to 2024 Carolina Crown's Promethean.

Ever since J.D. Shaw returned to Phantom in 2021, people have been saying that Phantom is back. First, they never left. Second, if there was a show which WOULD indicate Phantom is “back”, Mynd is it.

It’s been 17 years since the Blue Devils placed lower than 2nd, but you wouldn’t know it from how they performed The Romantics. I also, for once, disagree with Edna Mode. BD wears those capes with authority.

The Boston Crusaders performed a very popular and championship quality show with Glitch.

Had a few pleasant reminders of this great show, so I felt it was time to go through my photos from DCI Finals and make ’em look better.

2024 DCI World Championships – Bluecoats

In 2018, the Mandarins blew the door down, making Finals for the first time in their history. Last year, the Mandarins became the latest corps to join the Top 6 club, placing 6th with an incredibly entertaining Sinnerman show. The corps has built off that success this past season with a 7th place showing and another fan favorite in Vieux Carré.

I've been writing my reviews of this past season's shows in reverse order of finish. I wanted to make sure the Open Class corps got the love they deserve, especially if I lose momentum and don't get through everybody. It's happened before. Then I pulled up YouTube and saw this in my feed:
