The Other Side is a glimpse into a life beyond what we know. It's a duet between the living and those who have moved on to a place full of color and happiness. The show is about a historic day the living can mingle and party with those who have gone to the other side.

Lol welcome back! I have no clue what they are doing, but I am still holding out for my BD show with all Gordon Goodwin music. Hopefully one of these years they will bless us with that.
Probable we can get the idea across to them if we are relentlessly trying to. I AM GOING TO TRY! I am serious! I definitely would want to see such a show on Gordon Goodwin music

I have actually not heard any music this year! I was late for ensemble last camp. Zach was playing drum set and man he just keeps getting better. He was laying down some serious jazz grooves.
BDB pit is super solid! That is all I have heard and each section separately. Their guard looked good.
C corps has a hard drum book! Especially the snares!!!!
they are tired of being “cute” watch out because they are not playing as far as drum line goes. You’ll see
Hey ya! longtime no see... Thanks for the bits. Today i am looking out for the show announcement of BDB and possible BDA tomorrow. The C corps Candyland sounds scrumptious i can't wait to take a bite. Gonna need to keep my sweet tooth checked, with my toothbrush and floss being overused through out this summer lol.

I recognize that painting. It’s titled Nighthawks by Edward Hopper I believe? David Maslanka has a work for piano and percussion inspired by that painting.
Interesting. I’m excited after last year.
Interesting indeed. when so many shows seem to be going dark and aggressive i only hope BD goes the opposite direction and just pull us into their world like magnet, the pieces inspired by the painting surely would do that.

This?
Its a beautiful piece. Start so serene almost a haunting quality, like its taking you on a journey so tranquil and calm, very peaceful at rest, then it gets happier in a grand entrance way like dancing in unity, it transition into a little chaotic crazy environment where its turns into drama and as the drama fades or subsided it goes back to where it started from to being serene again.

Meanwhile, Blue Devils 2018 is already being etched into the DCI championship trophy.
Lol... Even though still........., even though i am very confident in BD, I wouldn't want say such a thing right now until all shows are out on full display, lets not get ahead of ourselves, the competition will be fierce i strongly believe and let us not discount the rest of the field by the sounding of that technicality of a statement(which can come off as politics) if you know what i mean, which many criticize whenever BD win over their favorite corp. But i have to end with saying, GO BD!!! FOREVER BD! Long live the dynasty.

I love it how others TRY and tell them HOW to perform. They don't need the advice.... thank you very much. Their legacy speaks volumes. The only question is how other corps can stack up to their level. Plain and simple.
It's like old news now, a classic that never shine with so many criticism telling them how to perform. Like can you say to the standard how to be the standard ? how can you keep telling an overwhelming successful dynasty how to be king in its domain, dominating with excellence and perfection in whatever theme they chose. BD have a well rounded organization that is a head of itself and just keep on coming at you. The day we see all that going and start getting old and they losing that quality in the organization to the point it start affecting the shows they do and performance they give is dropping below, then we can start worrying and give our own critical opinions in telling them how to perform. Its very clear when they step out on the field who they are

Kudos to BDPA for handling current issues in a world-class manor - proactively. I know, what a concept.
Letter from Rosa Lee Harden is top notch.
On the performance side, I'm looking forward to seeing the drum line. I just think it's cool that Brandon had a dream to march BD, and now is center snare.
Yeah. It should be another steller year for the drumline. I just want to see them winning brass this year and take back color guard caption award. I am hopefull for something new we never see, believing last year show was not a one off but is the significant show to usher in a new eara for BD. I really and truly want them to keep on the musical pathways they've trodden Ballad wise, for the last few years and last year musically driven show with the concept.

Without even blinking or think Star 91 Is one of my favorite show ever if not my favorite overall. I love that show so much, I watch it so often it never gets old to me. Such a brilliant show.

For 2018 I want all top 6 going head to head, not just 3, not just 2 , but 6 with great themes, fantastic music with amazing sounds, unbelievable spectacular visuals, emmaculate performances, giving the judges a real struggle to score them well from each other, they are all separated by half a point.
Or top three having a three way tie for gold for the very first time ever! Is that too much to ask ? ????
-
This year I don't want to know much like last year before the premiere of the first show, except for the theme and music when announced. I want that first impact hearing and seeing the show for the first time. So any leaks of rehearsal music recording and overall rehearsal run through I will stay away from but I'll read whatever is shared here or anywhere else and definitely whatever they put out on their website and social media.

Wow I miss this place! So BD February camp this weekend. Is there any little nuggets of what this weekend camp look like and sound like so far, Any little thought or thoughts ? ?
-
I think so too... they always have but in the way they did in metamorph is just so juicy and really mesmorizing from that enchanting ballad to that spicy jazz piece is two of many more of moments throughout the show. No one does jazz like the devils omg, juat so good. I was never a fan of jazz until I met the devils, they pull me into that world especially classy classic jazz. But I have to add that Scv 2017 jazz piece was really one of my favorite part the show, I love it! I feel like I want to see a lot more jazz, The devils giving me a jazz fever.
