FluteBoy Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Hey guys ... Are there any corps that have used "Simple Gifts" as an opener? Seems like that would be the simplest of simple for simple simon sophisticated show starters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hrothgar15 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Hey guys ...Are there any corps that have used "Simple Gifts" as an opener? Seems like that would be the simplest of simple for simple simon sophisticated show starters. Garfield Cadets 1987 is the most prominent example.

Phansouth Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Spirit of Atlanta, 1980, "Georgia on My Mind."Game over. Yeah. Kinda hard to top that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerriTroop Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Yeah. Kinda hard to top that. Spirit 80 is definitely hard to top. chills! I'm still pretty enamored with 07 Madison's opening. The vocal to horn fade is very effective, and the stop-step drill is something that sells well to fans and newbies alike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raphael18 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 (edited) Just from reading the first page - I think some are confusing the use of 'opening statements' with the full opener. I still have a hard time saying anything from PR 93 or SCV 00 was 'simple' Edited May 8, 2008 by raphael18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrlandoContraAlum Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Gotta be a homer here... Suncoast 88 The mallet intro w/ only the dancer on the field, then the dissonant bits, followed by the Jesus Loves The Little Children hit... pretty good stuff, If I do say so myself!
