well, Ferguson definitely will give them a lot of notes, A LOT of Notes.
He seems to have had a great touch with the FE for Regiment; hopefully he can do the same with the battery.
Ferguson’s been writing the battery at Regiment for 2 years. Also looks like half of the battery staff and all front staff is remaining at Regiment, based on what I’ve heard.

oh well, looks like another boring non-creative show for PR. I wonder if falling out of the top 12 will wake some people up???
I do find it interesting though that they have added a production designer with some serious entertainment industry credits. Curious to see how he is utilized.

Certainly a step up, imoIMO
Certainly curious to see how his first summer writing in DCI goes, he’s a fantastic educator for sure!
It also looks like Phantom has updated their website with some new additions. Looks like mostly visual changes. http://regiment.org/our-staff/program-staff/

Spirit just announced Matt Filosa as Front Arranger and Electronic designer. It appears he will be staying on at Cadets as well still as sound designer.

Part of me believes that having BDB and SCVC in the 14-20 was a good thing, as it helped to push the envelope in that range.
The other part thinks that BDPA and Vanguard organizations are up to something...(Cali circuit? Something that isn’t DCI?)

The FB post didn't read like "I'm doing this on my own."
That was Regiment's highest scoring caption... (granted, 9th)
If their percussion design and Ferguson’s crew stays, I think they’ll still be fine. If it doesn’t, then there’s a whole new can of worms opening.

A top corps will be looking for a new designer for stuff that plugs in.
It will be interesting to see if this is a pickup from another corps, or someone completely unexpected. I’d guess it would be someone coming out of a strong WGI percussion sound design background.

The BD shows of late? The front ensemble completely makes the show. Think of how much of the musical connective tissue is handled up there.

I would say the current music team (Pitts/Ferguson/Brown) could actually do some damage with the right visual/program designer. Some of Regiments music issues seem to be a result of poor staging. It’s just all really a matter of “who” that side of design should be.

I wouldn’t take this panel as an “a team” ever...maybe 2-3 of these individuals will end up on a finals week world class panel. That being said, this is all gonna change when everyone is together in San Antonio, so I’ll just wait until then to see what’s really gonna happen.

Heard some rumors that there are big microphone problems again this year regarding the hornline. I didn’t see any mics other than for solos during the tour premier broadcast?! Discuss!!
Based on the show/rehearsal I saw in Akron, they only have the wireless mics and a couple spot or shotgun mics in a few spots of the show. Nothing that seemed like full brass amplification.

Not to mention any director that is able to keep a corps and organization financially running and moving down the road is a way bigger feat than how the corps places.
