CLD Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 The staff really has stepped up this year as well as the MM. This is a great showing for them! Question now is, were there any Open class corps that would compete with any World Class corps? I was unable to log on to see the open class, so this is a real question. Who is capable of making a spot into semis, and what are the WC corps able to do to keep that from happening? Well everyone seemed to love Oregon. I just want more horns horns horns - turn it up to 11. Forget about sashaying to Mahler, give the crowd more ooh and ahh moments and if it means opening up to a little more pop culture, so be it. Lose ALL flipping voice over unless performed live by a member of the corps. Lose all synth and bass boost - use your low brass darnit! And throw in some high velocity drill. You're only young once, these kids are in shape and can sustain that kind of momentum for a season. And last but not least, I'm not sure if you really need to "tell" a story. Just blow the roof off!

Great show! :worthy: I'm stuck thinking of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. That creepy purple suit and tophat ... I can just see him driving around in a 1985 Chevy creeper Van while he's singing that song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is capable of making a spot into semis, and what are the WC corps able to do to keep that from happening? Last year, BDB, Oregon, and SCVC all made Semis, actually pushing Pioneer out in the process. Based on what I saw from the OC today, Oregon can do it again. I haven't seen BDB or SCVC since Stanford so I can't comment on their chances yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skajerk Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Just logging on. LOVED Surf's rearrangement of Pure Imagination! Just gorgeous. Was that Bobby's voice in the pre-show? Speaking of the pre-show, that was THEW best use of a&e I've seen/heard yet! Way to go, Surf! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
