Best park and barkers

[mellophonium]

Who do you think looks the best/most natural while performing a park and bark? Worst?

Best: BD...swagger all the way.

Worst: 27th Lancers...always looked faked to me...totally out of character as I remember.

Could not see Star doing it at all....

I think park and bark and I think jazz, so I said BD, but I thought about it more, and SCV, Bluecoats, and especially Cadets have some killer moments where they "park and bark", my 2 favorite times of this are BD from just about any year especially in the 80's and from recently, Cadets 2007 in Blue Shades.

I'll take Vanguard and Blue Shades over Cadets version any day.

I'm taking Crown solely off of that face-destroying fanfare in 2007. It was just pure sexyness.

Pure awesomeness!!!

Madison always looks great to me. Park and blast has always been a staple of their show (cue left fist on hip). Phantom, on the other hand, I could never see doing that style of playing/visual. If they do, then it will be the end of the word as we know it (cue REM song).

I have 2 different versions of this. "Park and Blow"(feet together), and "Spread and Wail"(feet apart).

BD and Madison are the top 2 historically in my book. I gave the edge to Madison simply out of bias. Cadets, Bluecoats, and Crossmen have had some good ones too.

I voted BAC just because the end of the 03 show's Malaguena "spread & wail" looked incredibly awkward.

[Schickmeister]

Best = BD

Worst = Phantom...that would just be funny.

Regiment kinda did the soread & wail in 1991 in "Pagliacci," I think...but yeah...on them it doesn't look quite right....while strangely, on Cadets -- depending on the music -- it works.
