And I'm not sure cutting is always easier (although it is easier than trying to fill a vacuum . Better to write complete musical thoughts to the correct length then to lobotomize a longer complete thought afterwards. Of course in today's DCI it's not uncommon for some programs to actually start out with lobotomized musical thoughts Anyway -- hearing early season Cadets was always a treat. If you guys had only heard the music at the beginning of the 2000 season... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Dixon Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I'm wondering if the "costumes" will look like the male guard uniforms from 2009 (but with sleeves)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same but the lines of color (M,G,C) may be more erratic to create effect with movement. (But what the hell do I know).

But that cg designer in the vid from Villa Shanefield said something like going in a direction no corps has been before. 2016 male guard costumes were derivative of WGI and many other units and not very envelope breaking. You previously mused in a prior post that perhaps the corps logo would be imprinted as a major part of the design. Are you speculating, hinting, or teasing? As all corps have not announced but with one or two exceptions, I wonder if DCI is holding up the licensing process and not Tresoma. Perhaps the rights are only being bought from April to September first and the video and broadcast rights for another period. I don't know anything on this, just speculating as it seems odd that out of 40+ corps no more than four in either class have announced thus far. I don't think the Bloo effect would be that influential that quickly or unanimously. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brass34 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 How long was he at SCV? Cadets colorguard has kinda been their Achilles heel the past couple years. Would be awesome to see that caption competitive amongst the elite again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of cool stuff with the extra fabric attatched to the limbs. Edited April 2, 2017 by DrumManTx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xandandl Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Rumor has it that the show will open with THE DOOR from 2005 with the MMs in traditional uniform going in but coming out in the non=traditional outfit at which time they will be benched.
