With the Nor’easter we had these past few days, if they held a winter camp this weekend near the Massachusetts Coast, their rehearsal might be underwater! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ediker Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 12 hours ago, Liahona said: I have no knowledge of Boston's theme... That said, I'm going with a guess of a Pirate-based theme based on the time period from last years show. Last year it was indicated that Boston would use the same/similar uniforms this season...Salem Witch Trials took place between February 1692 and May 1693. The period during which pirates were most successful was from the 1660s to 1730s. Also in the video it shows an old map...perhaps a treasure map?...treasure island?...In addition, the letters (cardinal directions) on the compass rose are very distinctive and time period driven... These are excellent guesses. Pirates or Treasure Island would be awesome shows. Madison rocked a pirate show in 1997. @craiga has a point about the morse code suggesting a later time period.

Just a thought that with this visual/design staff, the guard, like many corps, will be the main story tellers. Plus, guard members are good swimmers. Well that's a lot of nothing, Captain obvious. LOL. It's like saying the brass will play notes and drummers will drum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps he/she will pilot a ship of fools through a sea of tranquility. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ediker Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Moby Dick? In the Heart of the Sea? The morse code doesn’t fit though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narrow Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Maybe Shipwrecked? Never watched it, but 1850s England might be just in time for morse code and there's pirates in it. The original story is from the book "Haakon Haakonsen: En Norsk Robinson" published in 1873. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Morse Code being transmitted via radio would have been early 20th century, I think.... Agreed...I'm thinking though that the Morse code is more of a metaphor in it's use...one of the most famous uses of SOS was from the RMS Titanic...yet the rest of the video just does not conform with that... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KVG_DC Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 The BAC design team and media team have to be reading all this with a grin. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
