George Dixon Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 Can't wait to get more details on Cavaliers 2017. I have a feeling the program will be something quite special. Wouldn't be shocked if they medal.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since my wife doesn't follow drum corps and I am an FMM, I will agree that the lyrics are perfect for this show. Anyone tells my wife and I will challenge her to actually come on this site and learn to appreciate drum corps. After all, it is "My Way" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entire last minute of that piece is just screaming for a drum corps hornline to play it. I'll be super disappointed if the Cavaliers don't use that section. When I first listened to the piece it reminded me a lot of Einstein on the Beach. Interesting enough after researching, come to find that Laurie Anderson did the vocals for Phillip Glass on Einstein. FYI: Listen to the faster version of O Superman she does with David Bowie. Pretty cool stuff. Edited May 16, 2017 by GREENBLUE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlejaw Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Pretour officially started this morning with a cool leadership workshop led by an alum and Deloitte. Early move-ins for the drums took place this last week. As well, the guard had early move-ins with the Visceral dance studio in Chicago. The guard looked to be practicing improv dance as well as ballet, I'm looking forward to improved dance movement in drum corps colorguards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
