Scouts have announced their show: http://www.madisonscouts.org/2019/04/madison-scouts-announce-2019-production-titled-majestic/

Back in 2013, I saw a TOC show where all 7 corps that performed came together at the end of the night to play "One Voice" with a member of the Bluecoats singing the melody. Also, "715-CRΣΣKS" sounds more like a Bluecoats or Blue Knights ballad than a Scouts ballad, but I can see it being effective if arranged well.

I hope the corps is great. I guess their alumni just can’t take jokes

And my post.. is my OPINION. I am entitled to have one believe it or not. You're welcome to agree or disagree.. Personally, I don't really care..

My Friends seat last year was section 239, row 2, aisle seat 1. It's a level 2 obstruction, but was a great seat. After a few minutes, the plexiglass didn't bother me. Nearly everything I watched was over the barrier, not through it. Two big benefits for me: (1) The staff at LOS paid good attention to keeping stragglers from entering the Friends section, and (2) 200 sections are up a few steps, and I had a clear view of the field with no one in front of me obstructing it. I would have taken that seat again, but it wasn't available. Instead, I was offered 239, row 2, seat 16, aisle on the end of 239 closer to the 50. I turned that down in part because I think the barrier is more prominent there (plexiglass + a handrail) and also in part because I just wanted to try section 100 to get closer to the field and sound. Understand the OP's frustration, but I think it won't be as bad as you imagine right now. You'll enjoy good shows and have a nice perspective on drill. You know, for those precious few moments when a DCI show features real drill.😁

Pretty stoked, Go Scouts!

Doesn’t change the fact that brass band music suuuuucks

95 was no slouch either

I like your second paragraph. The first was a little salty for my tastes. I also wonder about your questions. I won’t make a prediction about the Ott, though. There are some extremely great lines out there so there are several in the mix.

I'd say anyone who saw Regiment in '96 would disagree with you. Mike

Camp this weekend! Can't wait to hear what they're playing.

I really enjoyed the stint with Robert W. Smith arranging a few years ago. Empire State of Mind is an iconic moment, IMO.

BAC was a nice college band last year.
