mrjaydub Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Giving props where it's deserved... incredibly impressed with the audio. Video does need work - but definitely heads above where they (FloMarching) were last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.E. Brigand Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 It's very early, but right now I find BS's arrangement of "Young and Beautiful" less effective than what the Centerville Jazz Band played a couple years ago. And the "hey sister soul sister" prerecording needs to be live or cut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narrow Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 (edited) Horn line sounds really solid. Everything after the ballad was pretty underwhelming, design and music wise. I really loved everything before then though for the most part. Good show Blue Stars. Edited June 21, 2017 by Narrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felt really forced. Could use a better quote from the movie. My son who doesn't do corps walks into the room and says, "That's unfortunate." and walks out shaking his head. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjoakes Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Sound wasn't bad live. Very messy otherwise. Liked actual corps uniforms. wonder if all that guard stuff might get simplified by August. Complexity that doesn't add much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always thought that was a great song and would translate well to the field. Needs more ooompfh. The intro to the ballad with the type writer is a piece from the move 'Atonement' called Birony's Note. Love the original. Guess it's referencing typing a love letter? That voice intro to the closer featuring the opnening lines of "Lady Marmalade" made me cringe. Felt really forced. Could use a better quote from the movie. Very accessible theme and show music for Blue Stars this year! Briony. I've watched that movie at least ten times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
