If this is true Bluecoats would need a once every 34 year event to happen (if they stay where they are which is not a given). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sound really good on the feeds to me, well integrated, stylistically coherent... Thoughts? For me, it's the book. The kids are talented as always but the book just doesn't add much to the program. The brass and singer really carry the show musically I think. Reminds me of Crown's issue a few years back with their lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact that they’ve a ready beat BD twice makes this year feel different. Been a while since that has happened. As a BD honk i gotta make sure SCV gets their credit. They got BD three times. BD got SCV twice. They are both throwing haymakers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnpendell Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Great job Crown. Another bronze medal perhaps? Need SCV in the mix to fully speculate. Won’t give up on them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of us percussionists know some things about brass too ;) From DCI's article (https://www.dci.org/news/2018-dci-rules-proposal-voting-results) on the panel change... "this summer there will no longer be a percussion ensemble judge. Instead there will be two music analysis judges utilized. One of those music analysis judges will have a percussion emphasis and the other will have a brass emphasis." Emphasis: special importance, value, or prominence given to something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NakedEye Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Twice now BD has had higher achievement than content scores for guard, but a few spots of the show look thin, so they will undoubtedly be adding more stuff. Cavaliers have great writing, but havent been near clean yet and may have a challenge getting there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
