shofmon88 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 I think acoustic string instruments are still illegal? Not that having an illegal instrument on the field ever stopped BAC....lol Does it have to be "plugged-in" to make it legal? I seem to recall an electronic violin from Oregon Crusaders? Both correct. I do know you can get amped versions of acoustic guitars. They're a bit of a weird ######## instrument, but the ones I've heard sounded fine.

I seem to recall an electronic violin from Oregon Crusaders? if the guitar is pantomined as being played (even with electronic sampling miked across the field,) I don't think it is illegal. Might drive Tony DiCarlo crazy which would be entertainment of itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRASSO Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 (edited) They sell guitar strings, the Crusaders have a Spanish themed show this year, guitar playing is big in the Spanish culture, the staff does not want to use the synth for any guitar parts, so....... You're like Detective Joe Friday here on Friday, Ghost. I think you just might be onto a solid hot trail, here...

Boston said " thats cool .. we're using it anyway because we want too, and it fits the show "... haha!

emc2 Posted June 10, 2016 Author Share Posted June 10, 2016 Maybe they will make the horn line sound like electric guitars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 (edited) I think acoustic string instruments are still illegal? Not that having an illegal instrument on the field ever stopped BAC....lol What about during pre show time? It might have something to do with the 18' windmills since there is supposed to be some unique sounds coming from them (late in the show?).

xandandl Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 (edited) Anybody want to guess ( or know for certain) whats inside these boxes that Boston got in the mail ? https://www.facebook.com/BostonCrusaders/photos/a.152218588155426.24386.146636528713632/1108161859227756/?type=3&theater Phantom Regiment sees your boxes, matches them, and raises 17 more.
