Ten Year Anniversary Of Felliniesque

Whatever it was, I’m just feeling happy and lucky to be in the group that did connect with 2008-2013! -
Ten Year Anniversary Of Felliniesque
jaylogan replied to Chief Guns's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I loved that era so much. So many great shows with unique approaches and music that challenged me for the better. Through A Glass, Darkly, Cabaret Voltaire, and Constantly Risking Absurdity are still in my rotation to this day! -

I’d like them to do a little bit of “Feels So Good” as the sound check -

From Mike Oldfield? Or the music from The Exorcist? Edit. Never mind. It’s all the same stuff -
I just wanted to drop in and say I immensely enjoyed this year’s show. In fact, I’ve listened to the show several times today. The music really grabs me. It just makes me feel…satisfied. So I’m grateful to the performers AND the designers for coming up with and executing this show. Thank you!

It seems to me that they are doing something new and innovative all the time. But I guess innovation is in the eye of the beholder… -

Was that from the Mandarins kerfuffle I luckily managed to miss? -

Good job roll outs! The extra reps did it! -

The rebroadcasts have never had music cut out. At least not for any of the ones I’ve seen this year -

She was amazing! I just wish the rollout devices themselves were less finicky. -

You didn’t see how the right side of the frame almost flipped over during the guard member’s attempt to roll it out? And then they had to stretch the wrinkles out of it on their way to unfurl the top one? -

These dang frame rollouts are giving me anxiety. Each night I wonder how they’re going to fail next. Those things need to split off and do some reps of their own before tonight’s show so they’ll be perfect! -

Good job everyone! I’m hoping Crown can pull back up to 2nd, but if not I still love the music of this show! -

On a different note, here’s to another amazing performance tonight and tomorrow, Blue Devils! You are performing an amazingly powerful and intricate show with the energy, passion, intensity, and finesse of professionals. I am amazed at what you’ve accomplished as an organization. Thank you for sharing your talents with us fans. We’re so very grateful! Put it all out there! Be in control, give it your all and have a blast! -

Wait! So they form the star out of nowhere, hold, then they march it at a diagonal while at the same time slowly collapsing the star. Then everybody starts doing different transitions, only to reform the star but with every member at a different position in the shape. And then they immediately continue marching the star diagonally (no X number of counts in a standstill) while simultaneously EXPANDING the star? That’s ridiculously impressive to me. I enjoyed this part before but I hadn’t noticed that much intricacy! Amazing! -

I agree with you, and I can’t seem to find the performance with the weird score, so I’m going to take it back for now, just in case I’m unintentionally spreading misinformation. -

I’m redacting this until I can actually find the show…don’t want to spread misinformation! -

I wonder what caused the frame to not unfurl. Those 2 guard members were trying their darnedest to get it working and then they had to move on…poor things. Haha Hope they get the logistics ironed out! -
I guess there is a presumption that the corps don’t know which shows are “regionals” that I don’t yet buy into. Also, it seems reasonable to me that they would make specific rules for ordering for Allentown and another set of rules for ordering in finals. I guess we will see when DCI lists the ordering, but for now I find Barneveld’s understanding of the sentences correct.

I think Incident in Jazz is more difficult than a bunch of runs because of the listening and timing demands, along with the phrasing and attacks and what they are marching during all of that. I love the muted trumpet solo right at the beginning of that feature, too. It’s so well-phrased musically and it’s just a cool transition to the tuba feature. I hope the tubas have started cleaning up that feature so they can respond in kind to the solo!
