RickCogley Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 This year is glorious. And the percussion section is fantastic, playing hard, clean and musical. Can you believe they've been criticized this year for their front ensemble performance, in shows where the percussion judge was in the box. A shameful display of ignorance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffe77 Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 According to Jeff Ream, SCV got 2nd in drums, if true, great news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickCogley Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Jeffe77, yeah, they were 2nd in perc at San Antonio, after a 5th in Houston. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickCogley Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 Nice overall score in SA, too. Now I hope they refresh on their freeday in SA, then do whatever it takes to add something to that ending. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shofmon88 Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 A colleague from Germany came and watched the SW Championship webcast of BD, Bloo, Crown, SCV, and Academy (in that order) with me. She had never seen drum corps before in her life. After SCV, she turned to me and said, without prompting, "I liked them. They're different from the others. They're more... elegant. They have class. It really projects from them." 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrumManTx Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Facebook: "Home of the Hurricanes" - sounds like an appropriate place to spend a couple rehearsal days working on "FORCE OF NATURE". Wait until you see what we've got up our sleeves! #SCV16 #FORCEofNATURE" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicPrevails Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 SCV should already feel successful this season. What I love about them is that each section of the corps does their job very very well. No section is a hybrid of any other section which makes for great design without having to read doctoral program notes to understand. This doesn't mean that what they do is easy by any means, but easier for me to let go and enjoy!! Just my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigwam Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Loved their show last year, but this one is even better. They have the best drill, simply mesmerizing watch!! The music this year is awesome, really conveys the feeling and focus of their show. Can't wait to see them in person next Sunday in NC. Would love to see them place in top 3, Crown, SCV, Bluecoats!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
