HockeyDad Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 So, now that the first show is in the books, what are they playing? Please indulge this dinosaur who doesn't use a smartphone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YellowShorts10 Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Those of you who attended last night's show, are there noticeable visual design/fundamental improvements this year? I know that's been a struggle the past couple years, and based on last night's scores that still seems to be the case this year. Rep. score was pretty low...not sure what to think about that. It's still June, I'm aware lol. I'm very confident with the brass book and the writing thus far. Love it. Robert W. Smith is the man.

I of course wasn't at the show but their score is nothing to worry about. It's right there where the other big boys started their competetive season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armyscout Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I think that brass score is where its at, wish i was there because it must of sounded awesome. Toppling bluecoat's strong hornline going after the coats is pretty impressive for the first show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO the drumline is noticably stronger and seems more mature than last year Drill seems more demanding than the past two years Brass - I've seem them twice and gotten two completely different reads. In the Whitewater dress rehearsal I heard a few intonation and endurance issues. Last night they sounded much better and these boys are Madison loud! As others have said, some impact moments could use some tweaking. Great Gates/company front move from 95 in the closer is going to be a highlight of 2012 IMHO 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did notice how much stronger the battery was or, better yet, how much more musical the percussion writing was than in years past. Pit is IMPRESSIVE!!...but maybe a touch too loud. Guard has no choice but to be fierce with Jim Moore and Adam Sage running the show. I'm confident in that helping us out quite a bit.

CQuinn Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Holy Crap! The Scouts scored higher in brass than the Bluecoats! Not by much but that is such a good sign! I can't wait to see this show! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
