It would force designers to create shows that audiences enjoy more, no? (not saying BD's show isn't entertaining, the crowd loves them!) Crown's score in Muncie would be crazy good then... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think audiences LOVE creativity. They also love seeing the traditional drum corps stuff. There is a way to do both (see TILT) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying give the crowd what they want! Doesn't have to limit the show design at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different people/judges see different things. Sure, but there has to be some criteria. Otherwise, what is the point of scoring It? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Guns Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I am all for crowd reaction being part of GE. Since BD is always accused of playing to the sheets and maxing out each caption, that just means they will design a show that will make fans throw their babies just as far as any corps taking the field. Let's do it!!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure there is criteria, but even that criteria, whatever it is, is subject to personal preferences. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's do it!!! I mean, I'm down for it. My issue with playing to the sheets always was less that BD played to the sheets, and more that the sheets and the audience were that divergent, in what's first and foremost an entertainment activity. And it seems to me that Devils have moved back that direction after the most recent round of sheet rewrites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superOOk Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 "We all know that there's something that only the corps of Drum Corps International deliver: this magical moment, or two or three in a show that are beyond explanation," DCI Artistic Director Michael Cesario explained. "We know that sometimes [those moments] happen in the break between two captions. It's that magic moment when our fans are driven to stand up. They don't know why they're standing up, but they're just standing up and screaming or crying or responding to this super sensitive moment. You find that when you box the judges in, we were limiting the judge to be unable to experience the performance the same way that the audience gets it, which is as a whole." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
