wk2w Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 8. People dislike the Blue Devils because they are successful. BD has always been one of my favorites. I saw them five times this year (live) and still don't get why the show got the scores that it did. I talked to countless people sitting around me at these shows who had the same puzzled expression on their faces at the end of the show. Do you really think that many people would boo a champion corps for the reason you say? They certainly got great reactions last year and some people were pretty mad about them getting knocked out of first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestCoaster Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Look at the Bluecoats. They play the most musical snare book of any Corps out. Please see my comments about the "most musical" myth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paralda Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Please see my comments about the "most musical" myth. In my world, if you can't hum the show music to the snare book alone, it's not musical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that's your personal opinion about "musicality" then...some might say that playing 16th note beats along with classical music lines on a snare drum isn't very musical at all.

It's not, which is why HNC uses COWBELLS!!! Well, that's not why, but their book is phenomenal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I know, but I am holding out that some of my other conditions don't come true....... It was a sad day nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pags Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Now, maybe it's just me, but I thought this thread was titled the top 10 things we think but dare not say....I haven't sen one item on here that hasn't been rehashed ad nauseum for the duration of this summer (and in some cases, the summer before that). Is there anything NEW??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
