snare_guy_83 Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) With GE being such a big factor in scoring, I think the Scouts should do a throw back to 95-96. A Drum Corps Fan's Dream: Part Tres!!! Blow people away and have screamer solos (we saw this year how much effect those had) and stage it in across the field to draw attention visually. Do something aggressive and exciting to get people up and cheering, and get back in the top 12. Its only going to get harder with Crossmen/Crusaders/Academy building for sustainable futures.

I don't think trying to do another Latin show is the solution. Coming out with something fresh, well designed, and entertaining would be a better route, IMO. Granted, I wouldn't mind some songs being brought back-Concerto for Guitar and Jazz Orchestra, Remembrance, Waltz of the Mushroom Hunters, A Tone Parallel to Harlem, Numero Uno...but doing a rehash, not the year for that.

corpsband Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Love to see Madison tackle some newer musical like Wicked or In The Heights. Broadway and Madison go together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having done musicals the last 2 seasons, I don't think we'll be seeing that. Although I agree that Madison and Broadway go well together, I think we'll see a different approach musically.

Why not some new Latin music? It's right up their alley and there is a ton of untapped music out there. Crossmen and Bluecoats have already tapped into groups like Ojos De Brujo - why can't Madison? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ojos De Brujo is from Barcelona and has nothing to do with a pseudo Mexican food outlet like Chipotle.
