Seriously he's been an awful judge to Cadets guard which is pretty solid this year IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like this show, a lot. I like the really weird things they do with the pacing. I love their middle-of-the-show uniforms. I love the religious imagery and narration. I love the "holy name" reference - thought that was really cool! That drumline - wow. My only bugs (and most are simply nitpicks) are the robes need to come off of the horns a lot sooner, and the corps really should be transitioning en masse, not a few at a time. It blurs the whole "three movement" feel of the production - which is what the title of the show implies. And the big one for me - I have literally no idea what is going on in the program. At all. It's a big, warm, fuzzy, entertaining blur. I don't know what this is supposed to mean, and I don't think anything in the show is helping me figure it out at all. Funny enough, I'm okay with all that, though. It's definitely a horse of a different color when up against their peers, though. Mike Cadets have become very "literal" in their design and that's fine with me. Everyone has a style. As long as they get the captions solid, clean the program, I'm very happy with the corps. It's a very enjoyable show visually and musically and I can't say that about every group above them this year. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it was nice when they flipped them around, but it still doesn't look like stained glass, it looks like drawings or paintings of stained glass.

henry7184 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Why did it take so long to add that ending. Honestly, I was very disappointed with it tonight. It was pretty lackluster. I do like some of the musical changes they've made in other parts of the show, but I still think those robes have to go. They make them look dirtier than they are. I would have thought every member of every single design team would have made note after 2013 Cavaliers not to wear robes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Dixon Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I think Cadets have improved there program a good deal in the past week i still say some editing would help, losing the narration, the robes and redo the tarp/jacket thing over all you can tell the members are working hard 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
