kevingamin Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Trumpets and mellos on a very exposed and discordant line to open the next section of the show. High demand on the ears to tune it properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Corps is keeping up the energy going into the closer. Tubas on their own, now joined by baris, then the rest of the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Company front, now broken up into kaleidoscopic drill. Moving into the end of the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 And that is the first time all weekend I've been able to spell kaleidoscopic without the help of spell check. Go me! Rather abrupt ending to the show, although we get our face blown off, so I can't complain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevingamin Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I love the old time radio audio clips during the pre-show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Unfortunately, the press box is too low to get the effect of the opening set, a movie projector, complete with rotating reels. Opening trumpet soloist. i think they've added that to the show. Didn't see that the guard flags are movie cels. Nice effect during the projector move. Huge fanfare! Hornline is TIGHT!

kevingamin Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Final chord of the opening statement is a welcome assault on the ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
