  1. The sunglasses confuse me a little because I feel like that means I actually know you, but I can't tell from your profile. So I'm just going to answer on the idea that I don't know you personally, and say yes I do know him, that's me.

    No, you don't know me. I used the sunglasses guy to look like a wise guy who assumes by your signature that the picture is you. Just giving you a chance to say, “Hey, that’s me!” Every FMM deserves that chance.

  2. I had one of those thingy-ma-jigs too but didn't hear BD do anything of such sort except for a couple horn players trying to play an octave above the norm. Crass? Yes Rude? Well I guess we'll agree to disagree. Mostly I heard it from audience stage right area. But alas this is not what this thread is about. Great night for all the corps!

    I was in the stands but it did not seem to be coming Blue Devils from my standpoint. As the post above says, it was more stage right. If you look at the history of the person who said in this thread that it was BD, he has been complaining about BD for years.

  3. I agree with what you have. But I really hope nobody puts any stock into it.

    Go back and look at what these tiers would've looked like last year at this time compared to the final result.

    2008

    BD, SCV

    Cavies, Cadets, Crown, Phantom

    Blu, BAC

    PC, BK, BS

    Gmen, Mandarins

    Spirit, Academy, Colts, Xmen

    Scouts, Troop, Pio

  4. I was thinking about that same thing. The way I am understanding it is that all the corps will perform in Dallas and Houston the two days leading up to San Antonio and then the top 12 corps from those two shows will actually get to perform in san antonio. I hope I a wrong though because I think its fun getting to watch all of the corps perform in one day.

    You are wrong. The Houston and Dallas shows are for seeding but everyone performs.

  5. I'm gonna go ahead and be a Negative Nancy (and I KNOW IT'S EARLY):

    Seeds of doubt are being planted in my head right now. I'm starting to think Romiro isn't a good fit for the Scouts...I kinda-sorta got the "latin culture" show last year, and based on reviews it sounds like I might have a hard time getting this whole "superhero" show for this year. On top of that I didn't like most of the BD shows he helped design...

    The shows themselves were fun, but the themes in his shows just don't come across to me very well. Reviews of the shows seem to agree with me...

    Prove me wrong guys, please? (pow?)

    Wow (not POW), that was fast jumping off point. I guess you don't remember where the Scouts sat at this point in the season last year? (answer is 19th, ahead of ONE world class corps). Some shows are written to improve as the season goes on. That is something the Ramiro's BD shows (that you didn't like) did on their way to top finishes if not championships. Scouts are in a much better position than they were last season so I'm not giving up on them yet.
