DrumManTx Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Crowd response seems really tepid compared to the rest of the top 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post kevingamin Posted August 10, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted August 10, 2014 Here's my issue with this show. You've got an incredible group of performers on that field, but all of the focus is put on the presidential quotes and the narrator using a stage that is barely utilized while blocking a portion of the field. The crowd is getting yelled at multiple times with a history lesson so why would they have emotional investment in the show? No wonder they pull out a bunch of tarps and patriotic images at the end of the show. It's the only way to get people excited and, again, has NOTHING to do with the performance of the members on the field. Empire Statesmen used to do this all of the time and I hated it when I marched there. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HornTeacher Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 If your show is one big loud, it's not as effective. Like having Christmas morning every morning. After a while...it's "big deal." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HornTeacher Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 If there were ever a year when the Cadets could have stripped their pants, this would have been it. Good grief this is super clean - near perfection. I hope you mean "striped." 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 10, 2014 Author Share Posted August 10, 2014 You have a company front and only get regular applause. SCV did that twice last year and got standing O's both times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamarag Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 If pyrotechnics were legal, we'd see a giant fireworks display here at the ending. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
