I wonder if it's the lack of equipment work with more traditional equipment? Not sure, but that may be it. I think they need to dump a lot of that non-traditional equipment. It really doesn't add to the show, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They start cleaning up the little things that come with time, such as the roll step for visual, and the electronic/prop usage for GE, they may push BD into a bronze. Their use of the props is really cool and very innovative all throughout the show. That's one thing that this BD show really is missing. The props really don't seem to have any connection to the show concept, other than they stand at the opposite end of,the BD timeline from the starting line. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From everything I've seen (literally just the Stanford shows from both), there's no reason Mandarins should be ahead, especially by 2. There is a reason. Mandarins performed better, and have a better designed show. I dont think Academy has a very good design this year and it shows on the sheets. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Academy's show is not at the level, design or execution, as it was last year. Plain and simple. Last year's show was really design perfection. This year's - not so much. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.E. Brigand Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 How was it that SCV's score was first reported here as 74.05--what caused that glitch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrumManTx Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 I think Blue Knights are a top tier corps in brass and percussion with a mid tier music book and a 10th - 12th visual program. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Vanguard's show is perfection. And, now they have a top tier brass line IMO. This could be their year - for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
