You might be onto something. I figured the drill style and it’s closeness has something to do with the thematic material. I would need to go back and read the show description and research the origin story (which I’m not very familiar with). The drill sets are compact at the beginning and start to open up into bigger picture ideas with the later impact moments. No doubt that is purposeful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeutralNovice Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Booo. Based on the full run rehearsal they will not be adding in the closer drill at Pacific Procession....unless it's going to be a surprise. God I hope it's going to be a surprise lol.

cybersnyder Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 (edited) I thought I was getting old and grumpy and not liking anything this year. Freaking love Vanguard's show so far. Really, really nice!! Edited June 26, 2018 by cybersnyder 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HouserCD Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 The show is incredible, especially the Metropolis 1927 Peter Graham arrangement. Wow, strongest I have seen the corps in June. Can't wait to see them in July and August. Solid. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCV's brassline is no doubt the best one they've had in a LONG time. Like, Ott-trophy good-- and when was the last time SCV was in the discussion for the Ott? The 80s??? and that mello book is insane. Can't wait to see this with DRILL and flagwork. I can only imagine that their flagwork will mirror this awesome moment from SCV last year: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmc5682 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 It is hard for me to connect to this show via Flomarching, but I know come August this show will have changed so much. With all the talent SCV has this year, I think this show could end up being wonderful. I have decided to not watch anymore shows until I see all the completed shows in Indy this year! I have seen all the corps now via Flomarching, so it will be great to see how much SCV's show (and everyone else) has evolved from what I have seen this first week.

I really recommend reading the story of the tower of babel and whatnot and then comparing it to the program notes/performance. Once you understand the original context, the show is really well thought out already to portray the design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re SCV 2018, let me share a little subte theological humor oft told in studying scripture...perhaps TimK knows it as well. Tower of Babel:..............Babylon......................Babble on.

INT72 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Also, Check our the lyrics to "My Body is a Cage" My body is a cage that keeps me From dancing with the one I love But my mind holds the key My body is a cage that keeps me From dancing with the one I love But my mind holds the key I'm standing on a stage Of fear and self-doubt It's a hollow play But they'll clap anyway My body is a cage that keeps me From dancing with the one I love But my mind holds the key You're standing next to me My mind holds the key I'm living in an age That calls darkness light Though my language is dead Still the shapes fill my head I'm living in an age Whose name I don't know Though the fear keeps me moving Still my heart beats so slow My body is a cage that keeps me From dancing with the one I love But my mind holds the key You're standing next to me My mind holds the key My body is a, My body is a cage We take what we're given Just because you've forgotten That don't mean you're forgiven I'm living in an age That screams my name at night But when I get to the doorway There's no one in sight I'm living in an age That laughs when I'm dancing with the one I love But my mind holds the key You're standing next to me My mind holds the key Set my spirit free Set my spirit free Set my body free Set my body free Set my spirit free Set my body free Songwriters: Jeremy Gara / Regine Chassagne / Richard R Parry / Tim Kingsbury / William Butler / Win Butler My Body Is a Cage lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
