BMBob Posted May 12, 2008 Posted May 12, 2008 It sounds exciting. I like the choice of composers, and I think the style will be great. I loved the first show Memphis did, and it seems like this could be more in that direction, which in my opinion would be awesome. Quote
AndrewK Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 At the last camp the staff had a design meeting and changed the show. It still has some of the same basic concepts though. Instead of Blackout it will be called Satin Stories. Bartok's 2nd String Quartet in A Minor Music from Requiem for a Dream (Summer Overture, The Beginning of The End, and Lux Aeterna) Sleep (with Patsy Cline's Sweet Dreams of You hinted in it) back into Bartok then finish with Harrison's Dream. Also woven into the show will be voicings of the song Dreamweaver. I think it will be an exciting season! :) Quote
bigdrumcorpsfan1 Posted May 24, 2008 Posted May 24, 2008 This isn't a total change. The former program designers were forming the show around the Bartok String Quartet. Permission was granted to use it. Looks like MS has kept it. Good idea. It's a fantastic piece if it's done right. Quote
Galen Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 Looking forward to hearing Lux Aeterna on the field Quote
rosski47 Posted May 26, 2008 Posted May 26, 2008 GO MEMPHO! That's some sweet photoshoppin' Danny. Quote
DannyII Posted May 27, 2008 Posted May 27, 2008 eh, last year it was a purple version of the "General Lee", but I found the rig and liked it better. Quote
ActualMarchingMember Posted May 29, 2008 Posted May 29, 2008 Not so fast. http://www.memphisdrumcorps.org/library/20...m&Staff.pdf They may as well just call the show "DID" and settle it. Although a bright spot, former staff (Michael McCray, Ryan Todd, etc.) now listed as consultants. Hopefully it's not too late. Eh... (*DID = Dissociative Identity Disorder, for the slow ones. ) Quote
