ripchops Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 At the end of last season, I told some friends that I thought Vanguard would medal this upcoming season as my bold prediction. This announcement might have made my prediction come true. I'm extremely excited for this corps 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRASSO Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 (edited) I'm so glad to hear that Michael Gaines has returned to DCI and Drum Corps. His Visual/ Guard work when he was producing shows for DCI Corps ( especially the Cavaliers ) was superior in every respect, imo. Congrats to SCV, as this is potentially a home run get for them, imo.

This great news for SCV and drum corps in general. This may be the final piece to push Vanguard into the medals! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvphan Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 What will be really interesting to watch is how much design influence he will have on SCV this summer. One subtle little nugget I noticed in the full length announcement was that he mentioned being asked to join Vanguard in 2016. One can only speculate when he accepted but with all the planning and momentum building the organization has been doing in anticipation for this, the 50th anniversary year of the corps, I wonder how much he has already been involved in the planning/designing for this summer's program. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShortAndFast Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Well, that's exciting news! SCV has done a tremendous number of things right the last few seasons. But this certainly has to raise hopes for a very successful 50th anniversary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO that is a large part of Gaines' genius -- the guard would always be in the right spot to generate effect. And frequently you didn't notice how they got there -- it would just hit you. Agreed.
