  1. When he left cavaliers I heard it was for a a similar reason, but then he went to SCV and I figured it wasn't true. Now I wonder...
  2. 1. 2003 harmonic journey 2. 2008 spartacus 3. 2010 into the light 4. 91 phantom voices 5. 2006 faust
  3. There are a few seconds of what sounds like it may be show music on their snapchat story. Anyone recognize it?
  4. there was also a similar thread YEARS ago (when myron rosander was still at vanguard) where I said I would love to see santa clara do 'new moon in the old moons arms' because I thought it was a perfect fit for his drill style , lol close...
  5. I wonder if many blue knights hornline vets came to regiment.
  6. I assume they are yet to announce a program coordinator/artistic director. This will be the most important position for them.
  7. I actually hated Pete Webers designs up until about the early 2010's. Always seemed like he wrote bad ### looking stuff without any regard to what is going on in the music (visual phrases not matching musical phrases etc). He has grown tremendously however, and is now one of the best and most 'musical' designers out there. If he takes some time off for family, good for him. I'd like to see him writing somewhere though.
  8. Chill, I read it. Doesn't mean he can't design for a corps. JD Shaw resigned from phantom "to spend more time with family" before it was announced he's going to vanguard. And another case was the same, although I forget who it was.
  9. oh ####. SCV 2018 dci world champions! I wonder what Pete Webers plans are, a corps would be smart to give him a call asap
  10. sad to see sullivan out again. He's still one of my favorite brass arrangers for dci.
  11. Even though their place didn't improve this year I feel like the design was much much better. They are close. I'd like for them to follow the SCV model with music, ie the music stands alone, electronics are used minimally, melody not played by a synth etc. IMO opinion, synth only enhances the music when the source music itself is electronic. It just doesn't seem right with symphonic music. I actually really liked phantasm musically until the voiceovers were added. Kind of ruined it for me. Electronics work so well for bluecoats because of the source music they use. My only other complaint with the brass arranging is all of the impact chords that ended with a 'stab'. Just a pet peeve of mine. They are always awkward to me and rarely generate applause, I'd much rather hear the resolution be a long and loud chord. I thought they would change all of those spots by the end of the season but they never did. Crown seems to always have those stabs and eventually change them to long impactful chords. Guard was great, drill was smart. Percussion seemed fine to me. They are close!
  12. do you know this for sure, or are you just pretending to know what you're talking about? Because that's against everything I've heard from people actually involved. I have my own criticisms of the show, but the flag work is great.
  13. agreed. The most electric night I've ever experienced in DCI
  14. they took out some of my favorite parts of entering the nightmare :( probably for the better though, it was really hard
  15. yeah, I saw the periscope one too, but it's also not very high up (assuming it's the same vid)
  16. dying to see this from a high angle. not giving in to flo though
  17. I'm just glad I'm actually defending PR's show this time around. The past 5 or so years I was the one doing all the #####ing and moaning, lol.
  18. I think this was a typo. What I meant is that this has been the most enjoyable music book for me SINCE JD shaw left. I agree with you, nobody better than JD IMO.
  19. Yes, i remember they were very clean even at the first show. Outstanding visual design. Musically I was pretty bored though - but still a great show overall.
  20. And I think the design is much much better than anything post turandot :) And IMO more enjoyable than anything jd shaw left musically.
