kevingamin Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I can see why Blow It Up comes across as a HBCU fight song, but it's so much more than that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know this belongs in the uniform thread, but......considering last year's great year and hoping a tier jump this year.......It will be fine by August, right?

Perhaps. I have full confidence in this new staff to make the choices that are right for this hornline. I’ve been encouraged by what I’ve seen so far. Starting big and shaping is a technique I’ve used often as a tech, but with a group with as young of membership as Pio has this year, solid fundamentals need to come first. Of course, I can only guess at the inner workings of this year’s staff. Regardless, I’m encouraged and excited for this show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 OK, I have a 3 hour drive home and a 6 AM wake up. I'm heading out now. This is my last live coverage until the Centerville show on July 30th. See you then! 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It placed fifth in BOA Grand Nationals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not a knock on Cadets at all. I actually prefer Cadets rendition as a result. Just had to take a shot at the Crusaders. /jk 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
777hornman Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 (edited) Last season the design propelled the talent. This season it might be suffocating the talent . Still a very good corps. Might be difficult to hold a top 6 spot. Edited June 26, 2018 by 777hornman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made a distinction. Not a shot. I, too notice these programming & arranging distinctions, and appreciate those who create fresh versions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
