ashevillemurphy Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I don't get the bringing out of 3 guard members in different "PJ's" and a horn player for a salute as the final moment... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 That solo guard member with the skeleton keeps costing the corps an arm and a leg.Now cut that out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluecoatsFan Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Very lackluster response from crowd....as much as I try, I just can't get behind this show. Is it performed well? Absolutely! Just does nothing for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke4496 Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Well I think I just fell asleep. So much for liking the show earlier! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMcomguy Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 The Cadets had an off night, for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrumManTx Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I'd take Bluecoat's unique and refreshing approach to an American show that placed 5th last year over this Cadets offering any day that will probably place 2nd. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjeffeory Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Sorry guys, but this design didn't do it for me. Love the source music too, and the performers are doing what is being asked of them, but... Now there seemed to be some brass performance issues too, especially in the middle voices, not matching articulation with the trumpets and sticking out of the ensemble during some runs there at the end. Otherwise, a nicely blended hornline. Drill made sense, but not a lot of velocity, which this is the Cadets. They can do velocity like no other corps. Mostly, MEH for me. Next year!

cajal Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) Much bigger crowd response for the Cavies than the Cadets. Cadets, the narration is WAY too much, though execution levels of the other components are really high. This is similar to 2007, though I don't think they'll finish in 2nd this time.
