BlueStainGlass Posted June 12, 2016 Author Share Posted June 12, 2016 I really hope this year's show is the real deal. I drank the kool-aid, last year, and ended up disappointed with the results on multiple levels.I think the shows really work based off the guard. When the guard is effective they place high 8-9 but when it's not as good they sit 11-12. They do so much under Michael that he really controls the show. Look at houdini, where the heart is, and le tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStainGlass Posted June 12, 2016 Author Share Posted June 12, 2016 Looks like tonight is the Forest City performance for anyone in the area. Hopefully someone will go and give us some insight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomVV Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Looks like tonight is the Forest City performance for anyone in the area. Hopefully someone will go and give us some insight! It was keen. More than 400 in the audience. It doesn't hurt that the baritone soloist is from Forest City. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not great camera angle..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6w4Myho6tw Awesome! Brass is much improved. Percussion and colorguard are great as they always are. Drill seems to be improved, despite the bad camera angle. The show overall looks like something from the 2008-2010 era of the Blue Stars. Looking forward to seeing how they do this summer!

Thank you." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brass has improved a ton especially with a younger line and the visual package as a whole is night and day. Tim fairbanks is a great writer but I think he works best indoors.
