CrownBariDad Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 (edited) Thanks Edit: in the show thread it sounded like it was sprinkling during the show, but came down really hard during Crown's performance. Just wondering what the story was. Edited August 7, 2011 by CrownBariDad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skajerk Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Huh? Did you watch the Allentown show? Totally different ending. MUCH BETTER in terms of crowd effect. They LOVED it. I like it better bc it has more drill and is a bit longer. :) No, I didn't watch Allentown. That's why I was asking. They did the "encore" ending in Houston (took crowd about 30 seconds to figure out the show wasn't over). I was asking if it's the same ending or if they've added to it. geez!

skajerk Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 (edited) I like the new encore better, even though, yes, I miss the Bohemian Rhapsody bit, but they went from that into a sort of cliche ending riff in the previous encore music, and the new music is much better overall as a tag. The guard stuff looks way better, lifting and taking down the ... whatever those things are, instead of just climbing on them some more. OK. That's what I wanted to know. They just climbed them in Houston. Did they change anything else? Is the "encore" music the same? Edited August 7, 2011 by skajerk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmboy Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 OK. That's what I wanted to know. They just climbed them in Houston. Did they change anything else? Is the "encore" music the same? "Encore" looks all new--unbelievably exciting. There's a Free Bird "guitar" solo now (played by the pianist) with super fast drill on the field--towers taken down by the guard, rifles flung across the field, then Herbert stands on the piano platform and smashes a guitar. It was a little hard to take it all in on first viewing. Looking forward to seeing it (not in the rain again, hopefully) tonight in East Rutherford.

Farmboy Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Did it just pour on Crown? Or was it raining hard on Cadets and BD? Must be tough on everyone even if it cleared up after Crown--unsure footing, etc. Won't have to worry about this at LOS. It poured on Crown and the end of BD. Cleared up during Cadets--home field advantage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrownBariDad Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Yeah, but BD could always take shelter in the "house". ;-) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I remember Free Bird being played but everything else is different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arno0940 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I really like the new ending. The guard taking down the towers and doing rifle tosses over them isn't working for them. It is distracting and takes the guard too long to get them in position for one single rifle toss. I wouldn't be surprised if this changes come next week to feature the guard differently during the encore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BR has been changed to Guns & Roses "Sweet Child of Mine". saw the stack of guitars at the monday night practice after NighBEAT....had a feeling like there were headed splinter-ville.

AlexL Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Im not sure i like it. I really liked the bohemian rhapsody ending. I said at the first show 'that show just begs for that at the end' and when they added it it was great. And now its gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
