This is just speculation...
I doubt there is a specific meaning or symbolism to the feather. I think it just references the primitive, tribal, ritualistic nature of Rite of Spring.

I'll try mine out tonight. Gotta see how it handles full-screen.
Hope they look into making a Roku channel for the FN.. it's not that difficult.
Roku channel would be cool!

Will tickets be available at the dome today?

New ending feels like a "work in progress". Looking forward to seeing it live in the near future.

Lunch catered by Moe's (via a generous Crown parent) today !!
Must be for learning "Moe" drill!

What is this "parade" you speak of?

Thanks for the link. Just watched Cadets play a little "Rocky Point Holiday"!

It's a Blue Devil World...
and they just let people hijack their threads on DCP.

It is an awesome section and it's getting faster!

Looks like some changes have been made to the transition between the fanfare and EOTB. Flows better now.

Any idea when the VOD will be up on the FN?

I wonder if the bass drum in the steel frame will get the same treatment. I noticed during their time at GWU that there was a section where a guard member and horn line member took turns "scribbling" on the drum head. It would make sense if the bass drum were adorned like a chalk board...

I know. I mentioned the music though in my post in the way they approached the show differently
I really liked their 2011 production.

If we're only counting trophies in the case as the measure of success. I would look at merchandise sales and audience applause for my measure of success. Look at 2011. BD came out with a beautifully melodic show full of recognizable music. Didn't win. What do they come out with the next year? Harsh dissonance through most of the show. The design stuff doesn't seem to take not winning well
This year's musical approach is different from 2011 but the visual style (use of props) is very similar.

Yamaha. Same as Cadets, Cavies, SCV, and a bunch of others.
Maybe it's really not the horns, but the instruction and the people behind them.... :music:/>
And some excellent arranging...

Houston, we have a problem.

Is the webcast link up yet on the Fan Network?
-
You do know that he never said that, right?
It sounded good in Tora! Tora! Tora! though...

Back then shows didn't have 100's of drill sets...

This show is definitely going to be polarizing. People will fall into either the love it or hate it camp with few left sitting on the fence.
I wonder what type of posts we would have seen in these forums back in 1993 when Star Of Indiana debuted their "Medea" show? Many of the things that people complained about them doing then are now commonplace in today's programs. This activity is always in flux, always evolving. Will Crown's 2013 production be a pivotal moment in DCI's history or just a footnote? I don't know, but it's going to be a great summer of drum corps either way!

camo and buzzcuts!
and beige spats...

Wow! It's going to be fun watching this program develop over the summer. Looks like the narration is back in the ballad with a different narrator.

In the mid to late 80's there was very little information available before tour began. You had to rely on word of mouth from people you knew in other corps. Every once in awhile someone might have a cassette tape of a rehearsal that they would share. Drum Corps world was really the only source of info. Most of the time we didn't know what anyone else was doing till we saw them on tour!
Scores?

Apparently there are exceptions to this rule. Blood, sweat and tears are okay. Baby powder - no.
