On Wall #8, there is an additional 8 counts (after instrumental part), simply restart with the triple to the R (you will be doing 2 sets of triples at this point).

Enjoy!

This song is great for a demo team music selection. There’s a perfect 32 count intro for the entrance and the instrumental part offers many options for formation changes!
