corpsband Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 But it was the GE judges who "accounted for" BC's victory. What was it that they saw and how do you account for it? Maybe (just maybe) they could understand the multiple uses of the Z-axis and rewarded them. Or do you have a different theory why the GE judges rewarded the BCs consistently over the summer? um...it was fun -- no -- infectiously fun to watch? imo that took care of the GE judges. everything else -- just gravy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cixelsyd Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 But it was the GE judges who "accounted for" BC's victory. What was it that they saw and how do you account for it? Maybe (just maybe) they could understand the multiple uses of the Z-axis and rewarded them. Or do you have a different theory why the GE judges rewarded the BCs consistently over the summer? To start with, Bluecoats won bigger with the music GE judges than with the visual GE judges. On the rest of the recap, they won music but only took third in visual. If you want to know what accounts for their victory, maybe you should look at the musical side of things. As for why they won GE visual, one word - coordination. Every mood of the music was complemented by matching drill movement. Musicians were staged properly to maximize their projection when needed, and spread to cover the field at other times. Even uniforms were coordinated, musicians and auxiliary, such that when they mingled in the ballad, the visual effect was as harmonious as the music. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassClefTristan Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Are you seriously suggesting Boston doesn't make the cut? Yes, I am. They barely did in 2016, and in my opinion, they shouldn't have. great show, i loved it, but i don't think it was above Madison. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liahona Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Are you seriously suggesting Boston doesn't make the cut? Get used to it! Every year since Boston has made finals...and that's only been 18 consecutive years...Boston is predicted to be 13th or worse...EVEN a new staff with carte blanche privileges is never going to change that sentiment! With the Scouts getting knocked out of finals ( a perennial favorite) ...it is not going to help that prediction meter either...Scout fans are not known for loosing with dignity...just read drum corps planet for the last several years and you will see what I mean...LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
