  1. sure does look that way. can't wait to see this group perform!
  2. oh i have an idea too -- just stuck in this #### cone of silence.
  3. well at least this thread is diverting! Crown Fans are used to the long wait for the official announcement but at least we had all the other shows to keep us occupied. Oh well -- it is what it is.
  4. So it's Bernard Herrmann-esque? That is a very good thing.
  5. obviously this will be another show title "This I Believe"
  6. he's just messing with the cult value of the number "34". these cadets and their satanic numerology!
  7. ok -- i blame Nike for repeatedly typing "oosh" instead of "ish" :-) (BUT it certainly was never whoosh!)
  8. swoosh: whoosh carolina dialect as for my dialect.. maybe
  9. ok since you're keepin' on keepin' on with the Lion King. the point of that post was that the Cadets aren't doing Lion King. So yeah -- you missed it :-) Heard the missing horn line kids were mostly due to finals. ps. oh and for your edification and santification... *whoosh* -- that's the sound of something flying over your head :-)
  10. *whoosh* *whoosh* <thoughtbubble> should I explain it to him? <long pause/> naaaaah! </thoughtbubble>
  11. They weren't believable. The script was terrible.
  12. The South Central PA theaters are usually pretty well attended and well-behaved (except when the riff-raff from Baltimore show up! Need to have another talk with the management )
  13. Performing Art -> Audience. As long as the audience is constantly engaged they will reliably react at the end of the performance. We see this in every performing art. Listen to the most somber concert. Watch the saddest play. If the audience is moved by the performers and the performance, they will applaud at the end. There are a variety of mediums where the live audience is not important. Drum corps should never become one of them. Does that mean "the audience" gets a vote? Absolutely not. But the judges (as they love to remind us) are part of the audience. If a show does not engage, there is no effect. IMO if a GE judge fails to be a well-informed, neutral proxy for the audience she/he has failed. I personally think some who judge GE become too concerned with the "components" of effect and lose sight of the sheets intent Does this show "work"? Do the content and the performer combine to engage and retain the attention of the audience?
  14. there you go again. talking about the Cadets in a beer thread
