barigirl78 Posted June 12, 2016 Author Share Posted June 12, 2016 I think it's way too early to comment on what the guard is contributing given they are the last section to start practicing. The Crossmen Guard rose to 6th or 7th in some competitions last year. They started lower. I expect the same this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xbones7480 Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 (edited) Not sure how anyone could assess an entire program when only viewing A 7 minute practice video. Edited June 14, 2016 by xbones7480 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barigirl78 Posted June 14, 2016 Author Share Posted June 14, 2016 Just came from watching the horn and drum lines practice the drum feature and closer. I love the music this year. The horn line is louder than it's been in a long time. I'm not a drummer, but I enjoyed what I saw from the battery. This corps has 75 vets and 35 who are aging out. this corps will be ready for its first show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barigirl78 Posted June 16, 2016 Author Share Posted June 16, 2016 (edited) I just listened to the "2016 season preview with Michael Cesario (Part l)" podcast and Cesario said some very enthusiastic things about the Crossmen program this year. Also, in regard to a remark made earlier about the lack of props, is that a prop I spy in this photo from the Crossmen Facebook page?

MikeN Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Crossmen uniforms look much better in person. You can't tell it's an overlay and the "F" (I know that's not what it is) stands out. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeN Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Looks like Crossmen had a woozy player from the heat. They were taking him off carefully - I'm sure he's ok. Can't blame him - in the sun it's amazingly Texas hot. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
