Drums Across the Smokies - Knoxville, TN - July 19


Recommended Posts

Les Stentors:

A very small Corps, but it looks like everyone does double duty -- brass doing percussion and flags.

The opening statement from the horns was played at the sideline into mics, but I really didn't mind and it was effective. 

Highlight:  Vocal on "Always on my mind".  Very exposed, but had a simple sweetness to it.  The guard and brass flag work in the background was a nice touch.

Lots of talking in the stands during performances...also lots of people entering and exiting while shows are happening. 

 

Thats annoying.

If you did that in Broken Arrow last night I'm pretty sure one of those ladies would have tackled you.  They roped off all the entrances as soon as shows started and opened them between.

Happens in Indy every year! I've heard those LOS security ladies yell at people during shows before

Louisiana Stars:

Corps are now getting World class size.  Nice duet vocal on Blackbird and later on bari.

Highlight:  massed brass on the fifty with rapid articulations and as rapid dynamic changes -- a whisper to fff in an instant.  Well done!

@Trumpet2  Where are you seated?  I'm on the 50 about 6 rows down from the press box.
