I think it's their recommitment to being at the Vanguard of the activity. SCV spent a few years before 2017 doing nice, pleasant, but ultimately traditional shows. Some would say even generic shows (Scheherazade 2? really?). But with Ouroboros and now Babylon, SCV is back to creating interesting, challenging, and innovative shows that begets conversation. Also, their brass line has improved seemingly out of nowhere. Who would've thought they'd be beating BD in brass this year? No one could have predicted that a couple years ago.

That is one heck of a show. Right there with you. I am as big a BD fan you will find. But if SCV wins, i am cool with it. Just keep the title in Cali. I am more concerned with BD extending their top two finishes for an unprecedented 12th year in a row. Consistency like we have never seen. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No different than when sports fans get serious about their teams; or when those parents of their kids' teams get into brawls (this one may be more extreme, but hopefully you get what I'm saying). 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
