KeithHall Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 ....if corps would just pick music with no theme? Music to entertain the people that pay alot of money to come to a competition? Do we need to know that there is a theme? Do we really care? If so I can't imagine why......oops that is lyrics to a song. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so I can't imagine why......oops that is lyrics to a song. nope dont need a theme...BUT a good show either way doesnt need explanation.....take crown last year...It was a great show IMO and who carfe about love stories, worm holes, equations...JMO...one can get hung up on a theme or just listen to great music or watch fantastic visuals....we make it to deep......and thats on both sides of the coin sometimes. If a themed show doesnt have enough in it no explanation can compensate for lack of content. Edited February 26, 2014 by GUARDLING 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Maybe judges will score a corps better with a theme where all sections, especially the guard, sell the "show". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the intention is depth, but the problem is that we usually end up drowning in shallow waters. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUARDLING Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Well, the intention is depth, but the problem is that we usually end up drowning in shallow waters. :) we also try a little to hard...we are dealing with aprox 12 min to convey a message....when a play, musical or film takes hours sometimes...maybe we ask to much of corps and WE, dive to deeply into to does and dont's of a program Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
