Curious on the new brass designer? I had the impression most BAC folks liked RG's stuff. I could have done with a different approach to the music this year as I have a hard time getting to brass through the synth, drums and singing.

Well done BK! Absolutely loved the back half of the show.

Mutliple escape attempts!

Yup.

Good job on SCV to get past that issue with their electronic piano. Corps didn't miss a beat.

Has that BK solo always been on a trombone, I could have sworn it was a marching euph > 4 valve euph.

First group gets tomorrow off. I don't think it makes much unless corps are super tight for prelims seeding. Hopefully the admins of all the corps have got things scheduled right so their kids get good rehearsal and rest in before the final push.

That was a pretty awesome twist, there's also a guard member who gets yanked back down at the end from the white stick.

Agree. Like that it's not the exact same cut as last night. Although I am starting to recognize some the guard members that always seem to get caught in close ups

Agree. Some of the early videos sounded rough brass wise but they've got a good sound and can play the book they've been given. The entire visual design just falls flat and the guard book just seems bland.

Agreed. Loved the new stuff, they just need to get from the fugue to that redone. I hate being ready to jump out of my seat and then it falling flat. Did they add the vocals back in? Couldn't hear that well on my iPad

Extra chance to give a performance, judge feedback and appearance fees?

Crown's winning the goosebumps count. Love the organ symphony additions. Overall Guard work is stunning.

SCV'a show is awesome. The wife enjoyed it and asked how they don't hit each other b/c they're so close. Love the ballad and the overall brass book. One of my more favorite SCV shows since '99

Weee....Somebody gets to play in the stratosphere on that first hit.
