I have been wondering what the significance of using such a goofy sound like that was. Now I get it, fantastic!!

DCI Minnesota is right around the corner, rain is forecasted to end relatively early and maybe resume after the show ends. Best chances for visiting housing sites will be Crown and Cadets, Phantom says they are having a closed ensemble on the 12th after sectionals and visual. BD will be at the U of M (TCF) most of 7/12 but will host the System Blue camp in the evening.

perhaps: The several flags of drum and bugle corps bands?

Sorry for the redundant posting, I was paraphrasing in my other reply. Daytime forecast as of Tuesday evening:Overcast with a chance of a thunderstorm and rain, then a chance of rain in the afternoon. High of 88F. Winds from the South at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 70% with rainfall amounts near 0.4 in. possible. Evening forecast as of Tuesday evening: Overcast. Low of 66F. Winds from the SSE at 5 to 15 mph. http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=zmw:55414.1.99999

A majority of the rain has been forecasted for the morning hours with chances of precip dropping off in the afternoon. Keeping my fingers crossed!! Forecast from weather underground

My goodness, that preshow is on an entirely different level. Absolutely fantastic overall.

.....I'd hate to say it, but it works. I just watched the video and my thoughts were along the lines of "...wat," but I guess it fits with their theme. Pianomen are usually rowdy, risqué rapscallions.

Narration during the ballad has improved a lot since the speaker has practiced it more and gotten more confident with it. Went from kind of corny to pretty powerful. Fantastic show, absolutely fabulous. I'm not sure I've seen anything like that this early in the season.

I think people are distracted with all of the hype about Crown, BD, Cavaliers, Cadets, etc and all of the new uniforms. I'm looking forward to Madison, I can't wait to see a picture or video or anything, this thread deserves some love!

That ballad is just fantastic!!

It was a "rebroadcast" of the original webcast. Here is a link to a mirror of it http://youtu.be/nnHgCZTfXa8

They promoted it as a "rebroadcast," I think it was a one night only deal unfortunately.
