I usually don't post on here anymore but I just wanted to say a few words about the Troopers. I watched them rehearse for three hours, tonight, and they should be very proud of the product they are putting on the field. No matter what the scores say the Troopers organization is working extremely hard and the staff really love those kids. They pushed themselves in the Texas heat and rehearsed until they could not see anymore (No stadium lights). Congrats on a fine show and good luck on the rest of their tour.

Nevermind. Found this topic has already been opened. Please Close. Thanks.

I understand your point. Some kind of change musically is going to have to happen and quick. They can't keep going in the same direction.

I agree a 100%. I have both the midi and an MP3 of the show from last year. There are a lot of musical moments that get thrown out and I am not sure why?

Here is the issue. The Brass Arranger is Carol Chambers a.k.a. Corps Director's wife. She and Guidry work together quite a bit along with Wes Cartwright. I think it would be hard to fire your wife....

Yes I believe so. I looked in the Drum Score Thread and I couldn't find any other contest in which they won.

That is for sure. They have time, but like you said they are going to have to work pretty hard for it.

True. They will get that snare line situation figured out. I am sure it sucks right now but it'll happen.

Congrats to Crown! Even with that drum score, they still came in 1st.

That is what I was thinking. Some how nobody has commented on that thread since July 1. I have to give a lot of credit to Carolina Crown. They are really clean this year. I can't wait to see how they stack up against the Blue Devils.

Now we can say the Bluecoats are for real. Love your style of playing and your visuals.

Good Improvement Crossmen!

Thank you barigirl for the update. Are they still marching 4 basses?
