kdaddy Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Rumor has it Tim Fairbanks is gone at Blue Stars, and Saucedo might be returning to Cavies...? Somebody in that organization needs to find Kevin Ford on Tinder (though I wouldn't dump Fairbanks). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HPUEuph Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Whomever has been coming up with show concepts/themes for Pacific Crest the last couple of years needs to be replaced as far as I am concerned. 2012 & 2013 were the best 2 years for them. I thought at the time the way they were scoring they would have been at 13th or maybe the top 12 by now. Instead they are sitting at their lowest placement since 2006. Their current brass and guard staff is awesome and is able to take them to the top 12 as far as I am concerned. Just got to do something about their show themes. Looking forward to see what Pacific Crest does next year! There definitely is no reason this corp can not move up into the next tier 12-15, but they do need a new look at their show concepts as you and many others have suggested. I'd love to see a Middle Eastern themed show put on by them. Staff wise, I'm hesitant to make any suggestions since I don't know how long some of the more recent staff came on and I believe in not seeing things work for a season or two, but I would like to see some them draw in some more well seasoned staff to assist as I believe some of them are pulling double duty with other corps.

FlamMan Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Rumor last night that Cavies' program coordinator will not return next year. I also heard the same of their "brass staff," but I don't know if that meant arranger (perhaps not surprising) or teaching staff (which would be very surprising). Cavies need to blow it up and re-tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadevilina Crown Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Rumor has it Tim Fairbanks is gone at Blue Stars, and Saucedo might be returning to Cavies...? I can only trust that rumor if he's bringing Gaines with him! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStainGlass Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Rumor has it Tim Fairbanks is gone at Blue Stars, and Saucedo might be returning to Cavies...?I will be sad. Saucedo has done great things for the stars and I respect him so much. That said he did make a Facebook post that would support him leaving.

Maneuvah Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Hop needs to use Open Innovation for show design, and to cede more creative control to others if the Cadets are not going to continue to lose ground to younger, and now from a creative standpoint, better organizations like Coats and Crown.

corps8294 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 (edited) Saucedo had a lot of success with the Cavaliers. He has to keep in mind that the Cavaliers of current aren't the same Cavaliers that he left; should he choose to return.

rancidrolla Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 I kinda hope fairbanks is actually leaving. I have never been a fan of his drill, with the Stars or with other groups. That being said, this year was a notch up from what I expected from him. *Kevin Ford to the Blue Stars* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
