NanciD Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 With a final grunt of "BUSH!", their 2011 season comes to an end. It wasn't an easy season, but they made it through and have put together a foundation which they can definitely build on. No doubt! Considering they came out of nowhere and beat the heck out of everyone, years ago... It can happen again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 The show opens with the pit playing a tango while the corps proper does some tango footwork. The guard unis are very tango. Horns come in while in a block formation and high mark timing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 There is an orange/bronze theme to this show, from the uniforms to the flags to the drum sticks. This appears to be the color of a tango. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Some equipment drops in the guard early on. The wind is a little unpredictable tonight, so this may be a more common occurrence than usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Low brass right in front of me, strong powerful sound coming from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Park and blow for the horns, guard in front of me now all on flags. Very eye catching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Guard pair in the middle of the field and horn formation dancing a tango at the start of the second piece. Guard now of sabers and flags with shades of yellow, green, and blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Horns are on brass lacquered instruments bought from Carolina Crown. This helps this Class A sized horn line project their sound to the box, but they don't need it. The horn line has a pretty balanced sound so far.

kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 During the third section, the guard is now in the center of the horns on double flags, some on green, some on blue, some on red. Again, very eye catching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
