Tom D'Bomb Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Agreed. Certainly, if you added Bucs, Hurcs or Cabs to the mix, somebody may have even flirted with an 85. Just who that "somebody" may be is anyone's guess, however we will likely know more when Empire goes up against Hurcs...next week? And we will get a more current score from Reading. Likely next week we will start to see where the shows are ranked/rated (read: slotted). And even though the level of competition may have served to deflate Empire's score in this show, they also benefited from looking pretty good in the comparison. I must say (and did, earlier in this thread), that from what I saw in the approx. 8 minute Oz segments posted on YouTube of an apparently June dress run-through, they indeed look pretty good, with a particularly strong sounding horn line. Either use your real name or give the VOReason character some time off. This thread is loaded with people who were actually there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom D'Bomb Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Empire doesn't seem to have any obvious weaknesses. I am glad I flew home to see this show...Empire and Grennies are both off to a very good start in their divisions.Don of Reason AND HOW 'BOUT THE GREAT JOB BY KEVIN GAMIN TONIGHT???

I have to add they are very friendly folks and made us feel welcome. Thanks again. Thanks to all the Corps and fans who came out to the Rochester Show! It was a great night. Sad that we did lose a member for the season who broke her ankle in the first few sets of the show and then FINISHED the entire production to the very end. Wow... what a strong young lady!!
