If it were anyone but BD, that'd worry me. 

They've done it in the past, so you're right!

Watched the high cam. After about the four minute mark this show has almost no drill. It's form a blob, scatter to an arc, follow the leader into a block, scatter to another blob, repeat.

Please don't just play your show as an encore....

Generally, I disagree with most of your posts.  Here though, Ive never agreed with you more.

This isn't 2014, though.  Gone are the days where BD is so far ahead of everyone else that there's no realistic chance of anyone catching them.  There's only so much new stuff you can shove down member's throats and have them clean it enough.

That's the balance that has to be struck every single year, of course, by everyone making show changes mid-season.  How much to change, how soon, and how difficult to make those changes.

I'll disagree. Crown most certainly has a wonderful sound that is on par or even better than these two. It's just what one likes.

Ditto!

Well nobody really agrees with me so when they do it must be something good. 

I already heard your show give me something else. Phantom playing elsas or nessum dorma are great.

BD has a high brass section like no one else. They use the upper register so well. 

I like this BD show. I don't say that very often. 

Other people are saying this, but I hear tons of high brass tuning issues throughout, especially the beginning and then all high brass features. It make me wiggly every time I see/hear them. It is shockingly bad at times.

How many times does a Corps like PC get the encore?  Usually they are on and gone before the sun goes down.
