BRASSO Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 " Life Cycle ".... " Spin Cycle "... " Bicycle "... " Pi Cycle ".... etc Who cares.... its basically just Drum Corps banging on drums, tooting on horns, and tossing whatevers. Same as it ever was. They've just added a mini 11 minute storyline thats all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Freedman Posted September 12, 2013 Author Share Posted September 12, 2013 At the risk of spoiling your joke: are you saying that Phantom used the vomitorium to represent the birth canal? First I searched 'vomitorium' on Google, including image search. That was a mistake. However, apparently that's the ancient Roman name for these tunnels. Because it figuratively vomits people. Not because people vomit while waiting to be fed to lions, or compete in DCI finals (a distinction without a difference). Thanks N.E. for the enlightenment. Well, time for dinner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drilltech1 Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Sometimes a tunnel is just a tunnel. Oh good! You had me worrying about what SCV did with that tunnel in Buffalo at the end of their show back in '9_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjeffeory Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Considering all the issues regarding blocked content we get every year, I was shocked to discover the elephant in the room. In searching online for more information about one of my favorite shows, Phantom Regiment's 2010 production of "Into the Light", I chanced upon this page marketing their "On the Road" documentary about the show: http://www.imdb.com/...y?ref_=tt_ov_pl Apparently this show, purportedly about the "life cycle", is meant to portray ... well, I can't even bring myself to say it. Where's my smelling salts? All I can say is, DCI shouldn't have allowed them to take the field. But since they did, and continue to market the show in various visual media formats, here is how they should have handled this. Please DCI and Phantom. Think of the children. Hey, at least this is drumcorps related... ...and it looks like they've already done that with the show... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
