karuna Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 (edited) Bloo seems very BD-like...until BD comes out and has loads of real visual content. I actually like Bloos show more but man it seems Bloo stands still the whole show after watching BD Edited July 22, 2018 by karuna 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mboogey73 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Just now, KVG_DC said: Well that's true musically too I think. There's no jarring K-Pop things etc. It's a great show, and awesomely performed, its just, somehow I expect BD to make my jaw drop like it just did for SCV and it's not there yet. I think that ballad will be there soon though. The opener is a grabber too. I'm not sure the annoying vocals during the drum feature is any better than the Kpop stuff.

It's one of the most entertaining couple of hours you'll have all week I guarantee! That's what I'm saying. Lone Star Chopaz was the most entertaining drumline battle I've ever seen.

B-Flat Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 My prediction tonight on captions: GE Visual - SCV GE Music - SCV VP- BD VA - SCV CG - BD Brass - SCV or Crown MA- SCV or Crown Drums - SCV (Crown in 2nd) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoyWonder1911 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 I can't believe I'm saying this, but BD has a more coherent visual program than the other 2 in current medal range. And a little more than I'm accustomed to them having. The problem is that they're dirty. Both visually and musically, they're dirty, for BD standards. This corps just doesn't seem to "have it all" this season. Their percussion is great. SCV, their program is visually, well IDK, I think Boston and Cavs have a better visual package than the 4 above them. But OMG, SCV has such a big sound. And it's difficult. Like WTF difficult. I think they'll win because of that alone. Their musical GE, content and achievement all 3. SCV takes brass, percussion, overall Music, and Music GE. Blue Devils take proficiency and guard. By Finals I think they will take the whole Visual caption. Bluecoats take GE Visual and visual analysis. What I think will happen vs what I want to happen. Predicting top 12 ranking tonight: SCV BD Bluecoats ---- Crown Boston Cavs ----- Cadets Blue Knights Blue Stars ----- Phantom Crossmen Mandarins 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldbandguy Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Could top 3 be within a single point of each other? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
