Exactly. The good news is there is still time to cut back on it. 

The bad news is: will they???

Either way I do enjoy the show, the kids seem to be having a great summer and frankly the corps IS rapidly improving IMO

Say what you will about the show design. Important thing is the members having  a good time.

This is my DREAM SHOW. The movie (and the music!) is incredible. 

I suggested this for Crown for 2015 - during off season I posted a big concept post. Got laughed at mostly!

It would be a terrific show. Maybe Madison next year? 

And if you haven't seen the movie watch it. BEST action film of all time.

Seen it. I liked it. But Road Warrior is still my favorite Mad Max film, maybe just barely.

Favorite action movie, imo, is Terminator 2.

I personally think the show is very well designed also. I think a few tweaks and edits and it is bordering on fantastic

Drill, staging, guard work, musical arrangements and the use of voice all very strong (again IMO)

When I saw it at Broken Arrow, I thought the drill was top notch. Just a few things here and there need to be scrubbed/tweaked.

I'm not a fan of a lot of the Voice Over, but it works and can probably be tweaked to add maximum effect without getting into the cringe territory.

Well those pesky movie critics agree with me. 

I literally can't believe it came in second in Oscar Best Picture voting by (rumor said) less than 10 votes. It should have won that year.

The filming - the use of live action. The chase scenes and then the humanity in the middle portion of the film and the feeling of angst and overall sadness and desperation. 

IF a drum corps could capture those themes they would win gold with that music

Funny you would say that. I've also always thought Cadets should do a show around Amish life. JMO

I like the robes, but REALLY dig the second stage shorter robes. Think they should wear those during the entire show because they're pretty slick.
