I know I am a dinosaur, but all the vocals a show needs are the DM's commands and perhaps 27 counting off the first 27 counts (see video) THAT'S what that was !!!! After 28 years, I now get it!!

I thought I caught some singing while skimming through crossmen preview but I don't know how much. I think Cadets this year have done a better job with the vocalists from what I have heard. Just my thought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe a previous Crown show may have had a neigh but I'm not sure about this year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BD (& Bloo too IMO) mix electronics better than any other corps hands down. They also have gigantic sound systems, way bigger/louder than any other corps. But I hate to even say that... because 'sound mixing' and sound systems with EQ that could blast a rock concert shouldn't even be a thing in drum corps and yet it is, albeit an unjudged one!
