Measton Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Modern, progressive, unorthodox shows, incorporating unique music, melodies, set formations, percussion, props, etc. This season, I want to be WOW'd by the corps whose shows I did not expect, the corps whose shows go out of their way to slap you in the face from the first step off, even from their opening set. That is what I want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Well that won't happen......just log on to DCP and you will find out But I agree with you, I would actually love to see a season go by without all of that yeah, i know it's pie in the sky. but glad to see others think it would be pretty nifty to see.

hostrauser Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 What would make my year? If, at Championships week, the Blue Devils ditch the Bacharach ("Just kidding!") and unleash a fully prepared second show that's an homage to GWAR (complete with costumes). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjeffeory Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 You mean the "Bando nonsense" that left them undefeated for the last 2 seasons.......I bet you'd like to see them put that aside! And....pray tell, when did BD depart from the Business of Drum Corps???. Having said that..... I would also like to see the Scouts do well this year, but I think SCV be the Bluecoats of 2011. Hi Plan! Glad to see you're back! I look forward to the DCP entertainment after all of these shows a revealed! I'm not sure what I'd like to see this season. I'll know if/when I see it.

Jeff Ream Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 I know from a fan prospective last years show didn't make much sense. Yes it was a very complex musical and visual experience. But tell me, how is drum corps going to pull people in to watch and donate to the program when your average fan, who isn't attuned to music at all, can understand the complexities of a atonal show. You can't make it so complicated people can't understand it. If you were at finals watching the crowd, the only reason they clapped at the end was because the BD staff was waving their arms and jumping around, which made us assume that the show was ending. and, IMO, despite all the "Oh people just hate BD" crap spewed on here, it was the smallest victory run crowd I can ever remember. and the first one I ever skipped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUARDLING Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 and, IMO, despite all the "Oh people just hate BD" crap spewed on here, it was the smallest victory run crowd I can ever remember. and the first one I ever skipped In all fairness many people skip that stuff now a days just like the old retreats there would always be a handful of people on the 50 hootin and hollerin and the rest are running for the parking lot to get out.
