OrlandoContraAlum Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Just heard that we (Bridgemen) have a 905 step off, so I guess the show will go on... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to throw down. pic.twitter.com/xetJLCB2 Dianekde @DianekdeI see a rainbow after emerging from my car in Jackson.

Kevin. Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 (edited) Bridgemen Alumni @loudbrassIn my seat on the side 1 40 about half way up. Hot and muggy but the grass field looks good. #dci @loudbrassBridgemen Alumni are setting up. #dci @loudbrassBig crowd as usual for this show. Oh my god the ANNOUNCER IS LOUD! #dci @loudbrassBridgemen at about 54 brass, 12 battery, 8 pit. #dci @loudbrassBridgmen on G bugles. One of the better sounding alumni corps in terms of sound quality. If not the best. Playing classics. #dci @loudbrassScreamers for the win. Old school but with quality. Love it. #dci @loudbrassBridge over Troubled Water, Thunder and Blazes, and Big Noise from Winerka so far. Sounds really good. #dci @loudbrassNow playing what sounds like thier Civil War Suite. #dci @loudbrassFinishing up with a great version of William Tell. Long last chord. Great stuff. #dci Bridgemen Alumni Edited July 8, 2012 by Kevin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin. Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 (edited) Raiders @loudbrassNext up: Raiders, Open Class. #dci @loudbrassNice mix of sound effects with pit intro. Some synth blended with brass, but appropriate and at a good volume. @loudbrassBrass quality very very good. Some rough perc spots but great recoveries. Corps moves well. #dci @loudbrassSounds like a Key Poulan book. Design typical of Open corps. No risks. But performed well. Good guard staging too. #dci @loudbrassGuard staging not thought out. Some odd guard #dci design choices. Ballad really nice musically. @loudbrassNo idea what ge theme is, I there is one. Just play/drum/spin? In terms of musical and marching excellence, best they have ever been. #dci @loudbrassThis corps is way ahead of where they usually are this time of year. Lots I potential if they can get some design issues figured out. #dci Edited July 8, 2012 by Kevin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin. Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 (edited) Jersey Surf @loudbrassNext up: Jersey Surf. Holy crap are they in Blue. Very sort of Bridgemen-y but blue. #dci @loudbrassSurf coming on the field old school style. #dci @loudbrassLove the crowd interaction with the yellow thunder sticks. Gonna be awesome at Allentown. #dci @loudbrassNot gonna tweet until they are done. #dci @DianekdeHow many corps any more actually get you tapping your foot?#JerseySurf #dci @DianekdeNice volume on the final note of the opener. #JerseySurf #dci @DMBuckleJersey surf. A lot better than I expected. #nicelydone @loudbrassMan, this is an entertaining show. #dci #jerseysurf @loudbrassParty Rock! And I works ! #dci pic.twitter.com/fdYyNa4G @Dianekde#JerseySurf gets standing "o" at conclusion of their show. A new generation discovers #drumcorps can be fun. @beckythetechieJersey Surf blew me away. Wow. What a fun show. Its official, I'm sold on it! #DrumCorps #DCI Jersey Surf Edited July 8, 2012 by Kevin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin. Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 (edited) Teal Sound @loudbrassNext up: Teal Sound. #dci @DianekdeI like #TealSound's music. @loudbrassLove the circus music, modernized. Drums tight. Brass rough, especially mellos. But much louder than surf. #dci @loudbrassFundamental brass sound still this corps' strength. Need to clean fast stuff and stuff on the move. Marching is improved as well #dci @loudbrassStanding still they are a different brass line. Use of electronics downplayed so far. Almost unnoticed. #dci @Dianekde#TealSound show is lighthearted and entertaining in its own way. I like how these corps are embracing entertainment over the cerebral.#dci @loudbrassUntil the perc feature. Slick battery Playin here. Nice stuff. Loose the duts, please. #dci @loudbrassGood tuba feature/ groove. Weird ending to it though. Guard good, needs a feature soon. #dci @loudbrassBarely notice guard. Some major dot issues in brass. New section tonight? Love the brass writing though. Sweet. #dci @DianekdeSpinning cymbals. I like. @loudbrassAwesome cymbal toss and spin at end. Best equient toss of the show. #dci Teal Sound Edited July 8, 2012 by Kevin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
