jjeffeory Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 (edited) I found this to be a great topic.

snare_guy_83 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Really surprised at how low the average placement of Bluecoats 2013 is so far. Most people look at 2014 Tilt as the point where their design catapulted them on their current run, but I'd argue it was 2013. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh absolutely, yes it's when the new team came in, but this segment had all the indicators of where they were gonna head starting the next year: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, apart from the opening theme (that also reappears at the very end) and the segment DrumManTx linked, I found the show to be extremely dull musically and visually 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to make a political joke, but instead I'll just imagine what a mashup of these two shows would be like. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that year I treated a group of fellow employees to tickets to the Massillon show in August, all of them new to drum corps, and while most of them were split between "E=mc2" and "Side by Side" as their favorite, I remember one in particular who just adored this show, starting with the military parade opening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were brave enough to do an Americana show that was not overtly patriotic. I thought it was pretty amazing. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
