Day 2 : Primarily Solo performances; hence, additional performance should feature a Solo performance >> why the additional performance on day2 has to be solo? From my view, day2 has 3/5 solo performances already which can already be a SOLO MAJORITY. Therefore, no matter solo or non-solo performance is added to day2, day2 is still SOLO MAJORITY day.
Please help me clarify my thoughts 🥹🙏🏼
