Digging Madison's music but not their drill

Yay! Finally get to see Madison on the Fan Network!

Wow great sound from the Mandarins horn line! Much better than last year!

I just emailed DCI and told them that if the upload time and quality of On Demand Videos and the webcast quality do not improve over this weekend I will be calling my CC company to reverse the charges since DCI has not deleivered the product advertised. If enough of us do this maybe it will light a fire under them!

I don't think people are trying to be rude. I just think what people are asking is how can a group get such high visual scores and GE scores when the spend a large part of the show just sitting in chairs and doing scatter drill when they could be MARCHING. This is a MARCHING ensemble right?

It is sheer nonsense that the BDs are using the chairs this year. Half of their show almost is either sitting in chairs or scatter drill to move the chairs. The reason why they are so clean this year in the visual department is because hey have so many fewer sets that the rest of the top corps because of the chairs. If the cadets were to do that this year their would be as much hatred towards them as their was the last three years!

When do full judging panels start?

Does anyone else's video of Phantom on the FN stop about a minute from the end?

ne one watched the videos from tonight that are on on-demand? when I watch them especially cavies and phantom the viedo speeds us real fast and slows down in certain spots. this just me or.....

Thanks for posting that Aaron. The way AG arranges is one of the most innovative concepts in the marching arts. For those of you who would like to get to know his style better I would suggest listening to Aqua, Synergy, Transitions, and You Never Know on his website. These are 4 of the greatest windbooks ever written for the marchingband field.
