Cappybara Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 interesting, because I feel the opposite. Crown is always trying too hard and it always seems like they are trying to prove something. I wouldn't say that. But they definitely do have the most number of sections with forced runs and notes the past few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 This Bluecoats show is losing steam, I feel.... Not placement wise, but energy-wise really hope they devote a little more to music next year. great balance for the last couple of years for my taste, but this year just a tad too much import to the visual side of things. i think the show is going to win, though.

DrumManTx Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 My sister said this show looks like an American Ninja Warrior course. Lol. In a good way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THeShadeOfNight Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 This not their musical night. Did they have the kids run 20 miles before vis block this morning? They look and sound super tired :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobe Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Are all the mic presets messed up?? Venue or Bluecoats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan1993 Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 I think of Bluecoats as more trying to be Madison Scouts of yore than BD of any era. Slides aside, this is a classic Madison show. I agree. Really dug videos of Madison in the past before they were taken away. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2muchcoffeeman Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Yeah, I don't buy the demand argument. For instance, Academy is the only corps this season that plays a song in its entirety. They let it develop from a ballad to a powerful closer. That takes extraordinary demand, so much in fact that no one else even attempts it anymore. Yeah, no. No one plays entire songs because it's too hard? The corps of the '60s and '70s did nothing BUT play entire songs. The fact that few corps program their shows that way any more isn't because it's easier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shofmon88 Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Didn't they used to play that rewind section? Why replace it with a recording? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cappybara Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 I'm less sold on this Bluecoats show the more I see it. It's just... stale... to me. I don't understand how they've been winning visual, with so much body movement. Talented corps, to be sure, but I really hope this sort of design dies after this season. I don't hope it dies. I just hope it stays with the Bluecoats. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
