  1. Every corps diirector that has voted to allow electronics get this out of control should be locked up in the theater I just walked out of until they are foaming at the mouth.  I made them give me my money back.  My ears are still num.  The base Goo was so bad the entire building was vibrating. I understand some of the issue may be this theater's sound system but there is no reason the Goo should be so loud that at times i couldn't hear the corps playing.  I can only imagine what the sound must be like in the oil can.  At the point I left SOA was the worst with PR coming in a close second.  Hopefully something will be done about this before next year.

    Personally, I'd like to see the team behind 2011 to return. I don't think Rennick would ever be possible regardless of resources, but I keep feeling that Shaw could be possible for the right price given that he's an alum. Shaw, Jamey Thompson, KC Michel, etc. But it's unrealistic.

    I'll stay with likely unrealistic but not outlandish: I'd do whatever I reasonably could to get Michael Shapiro. Dude knows how to create effect. Let him hire whoever he wants across the board. While I'm at it, I'm hiring the Blue Stars administrative team as well to make him happy.

    the "essrnce" is one of the problems.  Name a corps whose essence hasn't changed

    ....you learned that a top 6 drum corps had wireless mic’s on over 30 of it’s brass players?  What about tempo remotely broadcast to in-ear units on performers in the field?

    I've been wondering  who was going to open this can of worms.  Electronics need to go away period.

    Made the trip to Allentown, and I've gotta agree, most improved corps of 2019, and they are night and day better than 2018 ever was. Goo was a bit loud, but, that's many corps in that range, and I found the program to be one of the more enjoyable ones as a fan!

    Just my guess, but my off-season prediction is that we will see the music/electronics design team stay in place (Pitts/Ferguson/Brown) along with their instructional teams and see a whole new visual and guard design team, and maybe someone additional on the program end of things. That being said, who is even on the market?

    Pitts should be the first to go
