B-Flat Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 I am really hoping Crown's closed door changes are mind blowing and or will have a similar impact as in 2015 at the Atlanta regional show. Assuming the changes made are incredible, IMHO Crown could mostly likely win gold by winning first place in VA, VP, Brass, MA and with 2 of 4 GE captions, with CG no lower than 5th and percussion no lower than 4th. To pull this many caption wins off would be quite a lift based on where the corps is currently scoring, not to mention how well the other top 3 are performing. Could this happen? I hope so, but realistically it might not. Regardless of the outcome, I hope the changes made are effective enough for a medal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If any corps wins 4 sub captions then yes, I think they have a great shot at gold. The rest of the corps would be splitting the difference and 4 subs would probably take it all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just Crown though. Some corps take the secrecy act to the extreme and it's really annoying. I'm looking at you, Bluecoats. Waiting until the day of your first show to announce your show title? Geez, get over yourselves. For the love of God, let them be silly. It's not hurting anyone. So what if they want to have a little surprise, good for them. Bah humbug, sheesh. Sometimes I think you guys ##### just to #####! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ediker Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 I agree with News. Give the corps their space so that they might surprise everyone with some changes. There's a possible championship show in the making and they're feeling pressure to be as good as possible. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crownisking Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 I still think it's a silly practice for Crown since the whole secrecy thing never works for them anyway. Someone with inside knowledge is always going to let details slip either here or somewhere else. I guess I'll leave it alone though since some of you are clearly so sensitive about it.

UKSuperman Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Silly or not, your *****ing won't change a thing so why continue after 3 pages of saying the same thing? I, for one, am glad they decided to do a closed rehearsal again. The secrecy makes it that much more rewarding for the corps, as well as the fans when they debute the new additions and new ending. Raise the bar, Crown! Keep doing you! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
