You know that isnt what I meant, and you arent really helping this thread move forward by posting that either... With all due respect, it's 2017, if you don't know a definition of a word, look it up. Using words incorrectly doesn't move a thread forward either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleran Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 You realize BoaDCI was merely using "facetious" because littlejaw asked whether he was being "facetious"? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brassdude6171 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) In any case, the show chunk writing-wise (and yes I do realize a whole lot is going to change between last weekend and Aug 11) just strikes a chord in my musical fibers. Parts of it send shivers down my spine and the resolve at the end is so satisfying. Simple, but effective. Which brings me to my thought that when I saw Le Rêve, I didn't think too highly of it and thought it might lead to a minor drop for the group. I can confidently say I have changed my mind and that I'm THINKING that even if they don't improve their placement this year, they'll at least maintain. Curious to see what kind of show the staff cooks up. Edited January 24, 2017 by brassdude6171 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have gotten a little over-zealous with brass videos to put out this early. This is EXACTLY WHY we have such a boring winter...too many armchair judges!!!! I truly wish more people would be positive and more like DrumManTX...myself included! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked if he was facetious, because I was asking if he was sarcastic in a condescending way. I meant facetious. But what he really meant was sarcastic. It's all good though, early season videos are never great. Nor are they indicative of how a corps will finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though it is really due to the fact that I don't like the praise a lot of videos get for poor quality. I'd rather we be critical but also appreciative of the positive things I see in a video. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrumManTx Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Looks like front ensemble has a lot of vets returning based on a post on their percussion page. I'm sure they'll be absolutely killer again as they have been for years now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
