xandandl Posted August 9, 2015 Author Share Posted August 9, 2015 Congrats to my Phantom friends on the podium and on the field for attaining your ninety. You have worked hard from where you started to what I enjoyed again tonight. I count 4 Parisien landmarks in your drill. Who on DCP might be able to name them?

xandandl Posted August 9, 2015 Author Share Posted August 9, 2015 (edited) Eiffel Tower Arch d'Triumph Norte Dame 1 Norte Dame 2 ? only partial credit for the stain glass windows from Notre Dame which they presented in two sets (one for each half) They also did the pod of tubas surrounded by the four spokes for Place de Concorde where American Embassy is, the Cross (which can be seen on the spires of so many beautiful Parisian churches/basilicas/cathedrals, and the Champs Élysées (two files, super wide interval between them. Surprising to some, there was a lot of layering in the drill and the silks. Those who have been to France may have a fuller appreciation of what was actually done.

zachariaswmb Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 TAKE A LOOK AT THE RECAPS. The only caption where they didn't match or outperform their content was in Music Analysis! Way to leave it all on the field tonight Phantom! So proud of the corps and can't wait to hear what they have in store for next season. I'm personally hoping they stick to performing a more light and cheerful show like they did this year. Just to take a longer break from all the killings Man, I really wish you would go audition. Your attitude rocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cappybara Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Old ways won't open new doors Saw that on facebook this morning Agreed. I hope Phantom decides to pursue creativity much like they did in 2010. I don't care if they still place 7th or 8th, I just want them to entertain both me and the masses. At the same time, I'd want them to maintain tradition in that they continue to bring grace and elegance to the field. I want them to continue being the corps that brings emotion more than anything. And of course, as long as it fits, I'd love for them to continue incorporating bits and pieces of their traditions such as the crab walks, kick halts, power wedges, etc. It's very possible for Phantom to be new and old at the same time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
