I appreciate you not being snarky, this is also a discussion board and I wanted to know your thoughts.. wasn’t too random of a question imo. That’s interesting though! I can see what you mean, do you have a lot of insight on crowns show, and that’s what makes you think it lacks in the total package? Or just from those captions and concept mentioned that makes up your prediction? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their percussion has improved but nobody will give the props because the hornline takes the cake. The thing is with drums there are always groups that haven't been top 3 taking one of the spots. Cavies, scv, bluecoats, and PR have all been there when they weren't medalists. There are plenty of people who recognize Crown's improvement in percussion and give them props for it -- namely the judges. The caption is just extremely stacked, and frankly, there are lines that have just been consistently better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's the reason they have pushed for 2 perc judges for front and battery so that they can nail everything. I think drums are also harder to judge because they play so fast you need people that can figure out rudiments and judge on difficulty.

I've seen the first few minutes and it just kinda lacks a cohesion right now for me that the other programs don't. that's sorta stock crown but i also just can't even imagine the direction this show could take. to be honest as far as the crown show goes, i'm in on bruckner and high brass feature (which is awesome), but other than that as a complete package of a program, i'm out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
