Lead Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I haven't really watched any shows since I aged out in 2007, and now that I'm watching current shows on the DCI Fan Network I'm pretty shocked by how much things have changed. It's the amps, it's not the electronics and synths, I actually like all that stuff. But the uniforms, the show designs, everything, wtf is going? It seems like every corps now does a "brooding and mysterious" preshow, and everyone is doing A LOT of dance movement as opposed to actual marching. Am I just the old fart that I despised back when I marched? Why can't we go back to the days of Summertrain Blues Mix and Frameworks :-(? I know when I was marching we were already on the path to Bando-dom, but man is the top 12 in bando territory now. And yet you marched in the Bb era and dare call yourself a 'sop' in your signature... :thumbup: Those of us who marched soprano G bugles would beg to differ with you! Just toying with ya, buddy.

Schickmeister Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Drum corps is weird, period! Even its "pure" form, it's weird! We play horns and run around with chickens on our heads. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
