since when did woodwind solos happen at I&E?

They realized that when they wrote the rules way back in time, the person who took notes wrote down

" no band instruments"

Instead of "no banned instruments"

Anyone notice tonights score for PR is higher already then the winning BD score from last night? And some of the lower corps remained relatively the same?

A la the old Arsenio Hall show:

"Things that make you go "Hmmmmmm....???"

Like Bluecoats guard score!!!

Did they do away with the "Showcase of Champions"?

Ages ago, I think.

A few years back.What planet have you been on?

do you really want to know?

BTW the 2 years I was on tour both as marching member and staff, I was involved with corps that did not compete in I&E so I could just be clueless all together

i think the disconnect here is htat you can differentiate one copland, bernstein or williams composition from another because of the recognizable melody, something a lot of us have difficulty doing with saucedo compositions. honestly, i'm one of those people who thinks a lot of it kind of bleeds together and sounds the same, but he isn't composing songs per se, he's writing incidental music to go behind the visual, so its a much different priority than what you hear from other composers..

Yeah, I guess so. But I am sure it is hard to keep those familiar sounds out of any arrangement. But good point.
