TubaJon Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I think you fail to realize how much the marching members love the roar of the crowd. I DO realize this because i was a member. in 2009 and 2010 not the dino days. Im just telling you how it is now days. I think im not on the same paige cuz i did consider the shows i was in to be fan friendly and we didnt need two minutes just for the fans. I just feel those two minutes should be for both the judges and the fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TubaJon Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 CLARIFICATION: But now that i think about it, i do watch some shows wishing they had two minutes to give to the fans because the rest of the show wasnt! I was just generalizing based on my own experience as a marching member. So my apologies on that. however that being said i just wish all shows were fan friendly and didnt need 2 minutes for that.

DWEST Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Well, we already have 10 plus minutes of craptastic electronic noise that's not judged. Why not have 2 less minutes of it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie1223 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) Wouldn't Two minutes at the end of the show just be like a "post show"? We'd have a preshow (2 minutes that aren't judged) and then a post show (2 minutes that aren't judged)....

Howdy Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 " why would any corps waist there time on practicing those last 2 minutes." thats why Because sometimes it is way more fun to just play. As musicians / visual artists we do not only perform just to be judged. And most of all, because fans are paying a lot of money to be entertained, so let's entertain them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
