BRASSO Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 (edited) If somebody writes a glowing report from camp... great. I want MORE of these types of unapologetic hype, even if we might have to take it with a grain of salt sometimes. So what ? Otherwise, to engage in critical comments of the info provide from camps, only gives the fodder to those who say..... " see, when we release stuff from camps, we get all the armchair quarterbacks out there, attempting to beat up on the folks and their info who took the time and the energy to provide us their info from camps ". Then those people who were kind enough to give the info say.. " screw that, I'm not putting myself in any future position to be subjected to that unnecessary criticisms." So lets back off here on this guys write up inmpressions. I liked his report, just the way it was. Word for word, even. I wouldn't change a thing about it. I hope he continues to do his writeups in the future, when, where, and how he chooses. I LOVED his info write up from camp.

It's that it provides no information. This could be the generic hype update for - insert corps name here. I would much rather read about what they ate for breakfast, how many gallons of milk, anything. If you're not going to release show information then posting nothing would be better than this. Hey, but you liked so, that's fine too. We're just here sharing our opinions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand some of the criticisms of the writers article too ( and share the fans frustrations with the lack of substantive stuff on shows, themes, music, etc, and the lack of even harmless videos of Corps doing even simple practice brass chords, or percussion fundamentals, and the like from most of the WC Corps. ) Edited April 15, 2017 by BRASSO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
