What a day so far!
Rehearsal started at 8am after the 20 minute drive, the stress, lack of sleep and hard rehearsing really showing but everyone putting on a brave face. Most time was spent on chunking the show and clearly many members were having a hard time. The last part of rehearsal was a full run where EVERYONE pulled it out of the bag, the staff were happy.
Getting to the show and preparation went like clockwork apart from the detour through all the car parks. The support/floor crew now nes the system at the arena so had no problems. Waiting in the tunnel was very different from last night as everyone was so relaxed. And so to the show..........amazing is the only word that can describe it, with many of the staff shouiting, screaming and even a few tears, even Rob had a smile on his face!
Once the equipment was packed the members relaxed watching a few guards, a decision wasmade to leave after Pride of Cincinatti. Their show was a real crowd pleaser which had the whole arena on their feet.
On the way back to the hotel, Jon Bilby sends a text to Barry with the news we have beaten a guard that beat us last night, the van erupts with excitement.
The Members are now back at the hotel watching the scores come in and to say the tension tense is an extreme understatement.
