Recommended Posts

Kingsmen switch to a swing feel for the middle of the piece before switching back to a more traditional interpretation.

Tempo picks up as the corps brings the song to a climactic close.

Drum solo. I say this every year, but there really is nothing like the sound of rudimental drumming on mylar heads.

Snares now play on woodblocks for a galloping sound as the horns come back in with Ghost Riders in the Sky. Considering there may be an actual Ghost Rider or two in the line, that's appropriate.

The corps takes it down during the yipee-ki-ay section. Two soprano soloists step out, including Tom Davenport, whom I've had the honor of performing with, to lead us back into the main theme.

Drum intro leads us into the next selection which gives the sopranos a chance to take it up the octave and the rest of the horns a chance to wail, finishing their debut appearance at the Alumni Spectacular with great success!

Are the corps being allowed to "troop the stands" or are they just exiting "stage left"?

Exit stage left, from the looks of it.
