SynthLine09 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 What are you the most excited to see/hear this season? I'm excited to see the Blue Stars visual program, as I love Myrons work. I am also anxious to hear the JD/Bloo team up at SCV. I feel like Fanfare for a Common Man will also be a brass moment to remember - at least I'm hoping so. Hope to catch that one in the lot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrumManTx Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Academy's theme and music selections are something right up my alley, I'm very excited to see this show. Bluecoats, same as above. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cop Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Cadets and what the heck they are gonna do with that music. Adam and Jim's work with the Scouts guard. Scouts percussion. Myron and his drill with Blue Stars. What they heck will a running drill look like with a guard who must stand still to perform a wild guard book. SCV Horns. What PR will do with "Turandot" an opera set in China. (this time Juliet is a cold, #####) Cavies with a fresh start without Michael. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRASSO Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 What are you the most excited to see/hear this season? Drum Corps.... any of 'em. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dciboy2000 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 (edited) Just my thought's on what I'm most excited for.... I tried to include as many WC corps as I could. The Academy "Left of Spring: Stravinsky Revisited" Interesting theme, interesting music. Over the past few years the Academy has been one of my favorite entertaining corps. Definitely excited to see how this unfolds. Blue Devils "Cabaret Voltaire" I am looking forward to see how they are going to fit in all their repetoir into an 11:30 min show. They have some good source material to work with. Blue Knights (show unknown) I haven't heard a peep from these guys about 2012. Has anyone?! Really enjoyed the past few seasons. Very accessible in terms of show design and music. Good luck guys, on whatever you are playing :) Blue Stars "The Blue World" Blue Stars are a dark horse. Putting out great shows the past 4-5 years or so. The music looks promising and I'm sure the drill will be as fast as ever. Looking fowrad to see these guys for sure! Bluecoats "UnMasqued" Hoping that the 'Phantom of the Opera' piece is their show warm up, as I can't really see this on the field. The other selections, however, are right up their alley. Especially the music from 'La Reve' and 'Ka'. Boston Crusaders "The Titans" Bold title. Bold music choices. I believe they can pull this show off. Looking forward to Pines of Rome. Has anyone else heard the teaser of the hornline playing a clip besides myself? It sounds gorgeous! The Cadets "12.25" When first hearing the theme, I was optimistic. These guys can usually take anything and make it sound and look good. Always been a favorite of mine. Watched the live web casts of the music. They sound great. I'm looking forward to see this crazy fast drill I keep hearing about on blog posts from the memebers and staff. Should be an interesting show to say the least. Carolina Crown "For the Common Good" Fanfare will be the moment of the season. MARK MY WORDS. I haven't heard them, but if the brass line is anything like the past 5 years, it will be a golden moment. Also, looking to see and hear what they do with 'Dreams'(some crazy music there). The Cavaliers "15 Minutes of Fame" Lots of source material. Looking forward to see the new drill since Gaines has left. Colts "Boundaries" It's about time a corps played the music from 'August Rush'. BEAUTIFUL music. Can't wait to hear that, plus looking to hear a good mixing of Rachmaninoff's 'No.2' and Carmen's'All By Myself'. Crossmen "Fragile" Hot off their 2011 season (personally I thought should have been top 12), these guys look to have a solid book put together. They sound great already. I need me some Bones playing Methany!! Maybe this show should have a different title, "Songs for Planet Earth: Fragile". Just a suggestion ;) Glassmen "Glassworks" Some have said this should have been the 50th anniversary show. To me, last years show was still a great show, solid overall corps. This year I am very excited to see what some new staff will bring to the table, specifically Poulan....and with the new Jupiter horns, looking to hear their new sound. I'm also interested in hearing the original piece by Poulan and Ferguson. Madison Scouts "Reframed" Looking to hear how they are planning to mix 'Madison classics' with 'Pictures'. Intrigued to say the least. Phanton Regiment "Turnadot" Trying to picture this opera on the field. Can't wait to hear the hornline, as usual. Will anyone die? (that is not a joke) Santa Clara Vanguard "Music of the Starry Night" Very much looking to see their take on 'The Planets'. Spirit of Atlanta "Sin City" Not much about the actual source music has been made public as of yet. They had a big sound last year and I am looking forward to see them live so they can blow my face off! :) edit: grammar Edited May 20, 2012 by dciboy2000 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RACEU11 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Seeing what BK pulls off since there's been no new on anything.with their show. Also interested in seeing how all the new staff changes affect the corps that have lost/ received staff. Can't wait to see Crown, Bluecoats, Phantom, and Madison this summer.
