Jurassic Lancer Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 (edited) A quick comment on Cadets' use of electronics. I saw this live, and the electronics way overpowered that gorgeous horn line. Please, Cadets', dial it back. Why have that sublime horn line and brilliant drum line if they can't be heard over the sonic booms?

Definitley noticed that, wasn't sure if it was the theater, mic placement, or them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jurassic Lancer Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 RE: Boston, I agree with your mom about the props. In the opening set, they were stunning. When they moved to the center, they obscured the drill, especially when the battery moved through. Something to work on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnpendell Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 The guard stuff on the stage feels a little forced, it's like "HERE IS OUR GUARD THEY ARE BETTER PLEASE NOTICE THEM", Sorry I choose this one quote from such a great detailed review but I died laughing at this! I feel I was thinking the same subconsciously 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwillis35 Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 I've said each of the last 2 years that the Bluecoats have pushed the activity the most. Last year I called them Future Corps. I suspect I will revisit that this summer as well. In fairness, I have not seen the show yet. Should be able to Saturday night in Massillon, OH.
