BAC seemed to do well with their relationship at Tanglewood and ensembles and their very diligent work in the Financial District of Boston. The challenges and off-season efforts of admin of any corps aren't always known or appreciated in the summer grandstands. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sort of like you and Henry speculating about what the judges are saying in their critiques regarding uniforms, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brassdude6171 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Wouldn't it be cool if Cadets stayed with the religious topic but moved in a different direction for their 2018 program and did an exorcist type show? That'd be really cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except I/we have the scores to go by - pretty clear they aren't "wowed" -- so there is that. You seem cranky lately.

I'm not the one repeating my personal complaints about the show flaws over and over, as if the Cadets are scouring this forum to find the error of their ways.

dcikon2 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I just got back from tonight's show site. Colts look much better than last year. They currently have 7 holes due to injuries (ankles). One guard member accidentally hit a baritone player in the head in the gym so he is out for concussion protocol. It is just not the Cadets that are dealing with injuries this year. It will be perfect weather for tonight's show. There could be an issue with wind as it comes and goes. Hopefully by tonight wind won't be an issue. I was surprised to see the number of tickets already purchased for this event. It is not a sell-out, but pretty close. There are no seats available between the 30 yard lines.

Eleran Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Actually, I wanted the uniform for the pic, but there weren't any good ones of my son. I think the pic I used actually WAS from one of the drum majors, though I don't remember which one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
