The "Music Corps Should Do" thread

I saw the movie Oppenheimer this past weekend…there are some sweet mellow lines in that score that would make for a great DCI show.

Aw man, we really need someone to take up a Jimmy Buffett tribute show now.  Rest in Peace.

Love that movie. The score was so haunting and I totally think it could work in DCI. Musically I hear it as like a  modernized version of To Lasso The Sun (slow, threatening and ominous with lots of crescendos) with some great synth features. I can also imagine "I am become Death, destroyer of worlds" playing right before a brass hit. Call me crazy but I think this show concept could win the gold

Can anyone think of some contemporary pop that would be cool for a corps to do? I keep thinking about how fresh "one eyed sailor" must have been back in '76 for BD. 

Any ideas?

Soundtrack  was rather bombastic

Check out a recording of Dr. Atomic, the operatic version of the Oppenheimer story. If you’re open to opera, it’s a stunning production.

A Jimmy Buffett tribute show would be perfect for Jersey Surf. Their shows have that fun vibe that captures the spirit of Jimmy Buffett.

Their Down the Shore with the Jersey Surf was along those lines. It was a great program, my favorite show of theirs. They’d be a great corps to do a Buffet show. Excellent idea!
