FOURBOYS Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 It is very hard to tell on Flo, but CadeTA seemed to have a much better run than last night. Anyone watching on Flo has no idea if it is bad camera angles, bad microphone placement, good sound, bad sound, etc... in any case, Cadets looked improved over last nights performance congrats to the kids for finishing strong 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sideways Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 If this is the direction the Cadets are headed count me as a fan. Mass is a great work composed Bernstein...Jewish with suspected socialist/communist leanings but who cares...the dudes talent was in-human (agents of shield reference). visually the show is incredibly ambitious and I'll be humming this music more than most this off season. It's obvious that the kids are very young compared the past few years at Cadets. So much better than last year's "everybody must get stoned!" 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defeldus2 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 There's no way the main Cadet's narrator guy isn't a member of his college's Young Republicans, lol. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a few Marines Drum Corps CDs but none in the last ten years. Do you have any idea where I could get a CD of this show? It sounds fantastic.

It is religiously blunt and I don't feel it. I have always, always, been a Cadets fan, I have followed since those great 80's years but for me it is not welcoming. I adore the music that is played and I think that most captions are done well. GE bothers me. I am not comfortable with the choir. They sing well. I don't want to go to church at a drum corps competition. Sorry guys I know that a lot of you like Cadets this year but for me it is not clicking. I think it's fair to feel this way. I don't mind the religious theme, but I dislike the heavy use of vocals. Still, the ending is glorious. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCI-86 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Amazing performance from the Cadets. Super clean, emotional and the guard just had the run of their lives. Bravo. Feel exhausted after watching that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
