What I want to see BD do?


Recommended Posts

An Al Di Meoloa show.

Egyptian Dansa etc.

Of course I want to see an all Zappa show but i doubt that will ever happen.

As a big longtime fan of both, either one would be great.

What about a YES show?

Yet a third vote for an all Zappa show!!!!

Yes, and include "Black Page."

Im not sure the Black Page would be all that thrilling on the field, at least not for me. But I do think there is tons of usable material on the GrandWazoo, Waka Jawaka and Hot Rats. It would really be a cool show especially if the Blue Devils did it.

Honestly, I would like to see the Concord Blue Devils 'A' corps perform a retrospective show. That would be very fresh and unique for them because to my knowledge they have never done anything like that before.

Show would cover,

1970's

1980's

1990's

2000's

Since props and uniform changes seem to be all the rave, go full out. Have a good number of members change uniforms to represent the times. Have marchers playing and marching with tymps and such...limitless really.

Yeeah...good chance in that ever happening....but one could wish :)

i just want to see what they can do that I can't imagine they can do.

I felt that way this year, then they remembered how to design full melodic phrases

If we're going that route (and I would LOVE a show celebrating the schlocky goofiness of Ed Wood, assuming the OP was referring to PLAN 9, BRIDE OF THE MONSTER, GLEN OR GLENDA, etc. and not the later-period porn days of Wood's career - but to be honest the score music for those films was likely mostly stock stuff and isn't very good: definitely not viable for marching arts, but whatever), might as well go the FULL-crazy and do

"von Trieresque" celebrating the outside-the-box, intentionally provocative direction Lars von Trier. Maybe BD can go further and do "Domge 95-esque," a drum corps show celebrating the mid-90's filmmaking movement that focused on avant-garde style that created rules forsaking modern filmmaking conventions (such as CGI special effects). It would kind of be right in Blue Devils wheelhouse, though I admittedly am not 100% familiar with the scores of many of those types of films. But the concept would be very interesting: a show that sets out to askew conventions and trends (only for real, not like the Dada-esque show that only kind of sort of did something like that)
