Colts 2016


Recommended Posts

Just got back from the first Colts camp for 2016! Great start to the year and the corps looks strong under Howard Weinstein and Vicki and Jeff MacFarlane!!!! Many new staff this year, but leadership and commitment concepts being taught are coming through loud and clear and the students appear to really be buying into it already!

Keep up the good work Howard, Vicki, and Jeff! Can't wait to see where this show goes!

Excited to see what Scott Whitford does with the brassline this year!

Whole corps played through a little over a minute of the opener at the end of camp and it sounded really strong for November! Whole different sound than the past two years. I know it's only a little over a minute, but it really left me wanting to hear more! All the students seemed really pumped about it.

Not surprising - Scott is one of the best marching educators I've met (and the son of the best music educator I've met).

Will there be narration again this year?

My thought is the show will not be based around narration as the last two years were but haven't heard any specifics yet.

For the last two years, I didn't like either show on first hearing, but by the end I was totally into it. I think it's a neat niche for the Colts to occupy, and I kind of hope they keep exploring it.

I was into 2014's concept at first, but the huge focus on narration kind of killed my interest.

2015 however, I loved. I think maybe because they fully embraced the cheesiness and ran with it. It just worked wholly better than the previous year.

That said, I could live with a break from narration for a year for them.
