Cappybara Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 This sounds great, people who have been wanting them to get away from the throwback/retro kinda shows the past few years should be pleased. If you had asked me if Vanguard would be playing "Pure Imagination" I'd have called you crazy. I love the fact they're doing something that I wouldn't typically associate with them (Phantom Regiment 2005 anyone?) Couldn't find Virus Attack anywhere, bought it on itunes. That's going to be VERY interesting to see how they put it on the field. That's a great opportunity for them to use some electronics in a piece that's built around them. This show can and should be because of its thematic nature....innovative. Lots of really cool directions they could take this, a lot. Tesla's a bad ###, my feelings of which are very well summed up in this comic. http://theoatmeal.com/comics/tesla I'm really excited about this, Pure Imagination and Virus Attack could prove to be very cool and fresh pieces for them. I'm glad I know that Thomas Edison was a dbag now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrumManTx Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) I'm glad I know that Thomas Edison was a dbag now. Of course I haven't fact checked ANY of that (I trust Mr. Oatmeal), but Tesla's awesome. I mean, just look at dem coils.

Clutchtow Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I really, really, really hope they have some tesla coil on the field that plays music... I really really hope that happens... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skevinp Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I'm glad I know that Thomas Edison was a dbag now. It's sad when people think that to honor one person they have to tear another one down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFZFAN Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I wonder (and hope) if they will ditch the one off uniforms from the last couple of years and return to a more traditional uniform? Those shoulder board thingies just looked dumb. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lincoln Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I wonder (and hope) if they will ditch the one off uniforms from the last couple of years and return to a more traditional uniform? Those shoulder board thingies just looked dumb. I think they were attached with Velcro. During one of the FN shows last year you could see that one of the members lost one - I think it fell off during the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRASSO Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I wonder (and hope) if they will ditch the one off uniforms from the last couple of years and return to a more traditional uniform? Those shoulder board thingies just looked dumb. Perhaps, but rarely, if ever, have I been put off by what SCV wears for show costuming in any season. Last season for example, their intelligent use of color with the Guard costuming was nothing less than spectacular, imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
year1buick Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I'm glad I know that Thomas Edison was a dbag now.Edison (and his patent enforcing goons) also played a large role in why the film industry escaped out west to California. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonelife Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Just remember that Edison did make a lot of important innovations himself (You can't get that many patents just by stealing them) like the commercially viable light bulb, telegraph, and photograph. And Tesla wasn't morally perfect, either. He believed in eugenics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrumManTx Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 For the record, what I posted was a comic for humor purposes. Not trying to discount that Edison has his own major accomplishments. But Tesla coils are so much cooler........... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
