mr_mike09 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Why can't a crowd-pleasing show be praised? Don't we buy tickets to be entertained? As for SW, I think Carmel's got this one. Carmel and their stools. Two of my favorite SW shows, Seminole and West Johnston, need some love. I can see these two guards making top 8! Haven't watched enough IW to make any predictions, but I'm loving Zydeco and Alter Ego. Braddock is so close to that top 3 spot. I am loving Keller HS in SA and hoping they take home a shiny medal. :D I'm loving the innovative shows coming out of SO this year... Collins Hill and West Broward in particular. Thats why WGI created the fan favorite award...people vote during finals for their favorite guard and at finals retreat the winner is announced. That is where a crowd pleasing show can get appraisal, but there is more to marching winterguard than pleasing the crowd...though its a big part of it. Competing is what makes guard so much fun!!! Everyone wants to do well. Everyone wants to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Keller going to Dayton? I sure hope so, but I'm not seeing them on the list of attending units on wgi.org. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dugg Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Everyone wants to do well. Everyone wants to win. that is true! i admire the director/designers who care more about what they make than how well they do,and sadly i can only think of a few examples.
