Cavaliers' Screamers
RickT replied to bluedevilsadvocate's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
But coming from a guy named "Bluedevilsadvocate" is always nice. -
That's because they are.

That is just awful. So sorry Academy. Too much going on. So many studs, striped tie?, silver thing at the bottom, tails? Ugh.....And it is NOT going to look better with a shako. Madison's jacket and tie look worked with aussies...but a shako will look like one more mix and match thing. I really wish they would go to an "Academy Cadet" type look.

Why Did You/Do You March With Your Corps?
RickT replied to HollywoodNeoCon's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
Not my fingers. -
Let's break a record!

Why Did You/Do You March With Your Corps?
RickT replied to HollywoodNeoCon's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I marched for the rings. It's all about tha bling bling! Note: Not my rings. I keep them in a safe deposit box. But these are a nice pair to have, no? -
Note: Disagreement =/= trolling.

SCV has posted a video to their facebook page with music and drill from their 2011 show. Looking Devilishly good. http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=812314373521

Half a block away? The recording I watched was in 1080HD and was recorded maybe 20 yards away from the top of some bleachers or something. That said: It sounds like June PR.
-
I don't like PR's new look. It looks cheap and phoned in. I'm a big fan of their look the last few years, but this year is not a good look.
-
Sounds pretty electronic to me. And i saw a marimba player hit a drum pad with a marimba mallet. He was playing one of the offbeat patterns in the drum kit section.
-
Dear PR, Please take out the very very very lame electronic drum kit from the Lacrimosa. That piece is beautiful and it's being played well. The kit ruins it. Thank you, A fan

The Stars At Night , Are Big And Bright ...
RickT replied to corpsband's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
Not saying the rest of the show won't be awesome. Elsa's as the closer will be very emotional come finals night, but it only takes 10 seconds to make people B**** and moan for hours and hours. Here's hoping they pull it. Didn't seem to make much musical sense to have it there in the first place. -
The Stars At Night , Are Big And Bright ...
RickT replied to corpsband's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
Phantom's show will be plenty controversial. Why? Lacrimosa + really lame electronic drum kit groove. Just saw in on some other site. Really hope they take out the house beat from behind a truly beautiful melody. Right now it's just painful to listen too. -
Have brass members spun before in DC history? Yes. Is it a little weird that the Cadets are doing a brass spin feature the year after The Cavaliers? A Little. But that's what corps do: 1up each other.

Which Corps has the Fittest Members?
RickT replied to BrownThunder's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
This is a VERY important topic. We should all get exceptionally worked up about it and spend a majority of our time working on it. -

RickT replied to kdaddy's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
That's all well and good. But I've never heard a staff member, let alone the corps director, call the corps "my" corps. No biggie. Just kinda caught my ear the wrong way. -
Ya not so much a fan of Phantom's look this year. I dunno. It just seems like the crest in the center was just kinda slapped on a plain uniform. Oh and throw on a mirror to make it sparkle. They look phoned in.

RickT replied to kdaddy's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
YOUR corps? Interesting way to word it. -
I'm going to bet that the BD uniform is not a literal half and half uniform, but Cesario was speaking figuratively. Oh and hi. Been lurking since last season. Figured I might as well get in on the action.
