There is another thread where the original poster is asking whether in the long term it's better to be the gold winner or the crowd favorite. There's a nice debate going, but from a long-term enjoyment factor, I'll take the crowd favorite every time. If they are the crowd favorite AND the champs at the end, well that's just the frosting on the cake! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superOOk Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Yeah crowd favorite is a no brainer. Believe me, that's all most of the kids care about. I think it's a very close call between Bloo and Crown this year. Shocking, right? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their brass is a different story- never get tired of listening to them 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloo's environmental demands, metric demands, and hocket rhythms are all vastly superior to anything SCV is doing in those same categories. I'll agree that SCV is stronger in their chords and double-tonguing, but focusing on those is incredibly myopic from a holistic musical perspective. Sorry, just because you keep saying this doesn't make it so. There's a whole hell of a lot more to SCV's brass book than chords and a few doubIe-tonguing sections. I would tend to believe qualified judges, who all are scoring SCV over Bloo in content in nearly every single caption. There's also more to content than demand - they aren't one and the same. SCV has, IMO, the best designed, most content filled, and most demanding show of the season. There is so much going on that you see new things every time you see the show. I hope SCV and Bloo end up #1 and #2 by the seasons end. They are my two favorite shows. Both are just so fun to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeRapp Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Indoor facilities tend to be kind to Bluecoats, but if Bloo is going to medal this season they are going to have to prove something today. No doubt they continue to get better but they are also steadily falling farther behind BD, SCV and Crown. I frankly have no idea anymore what they have to do to be scored higher. But, the judges clearly do, and hopefully they are communicating that to the Bluecoats leadership. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3PoC Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Can anybody shed some light on what happened with percussion last night? Thursday Bloo topped SCV 87-85 in Perc achievement - Friday SCV took achievement 87-83. A 6 point swing in one day!? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
