I have never really seen you all perform before but my first impression was, wow! The hit at the beginning gave me chills and the soloist and music arrangements were cool! I wish y'all luck next time, know that music and performing is more than just scores on a paper, it is a way to emotionally connect with the audience, to share your journey, your story for the people who support you in everything you do ! You guys were ASTOUNDING!
