Given the different uniforms year to year now, it's easy to mix everyone up. I kid, I kid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedJazz1900 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Wow. I could see SCV being a point ahead of BD tonight, or more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll check out his brass band stuff too. Philip Sparke's "Year of the Dragon" was originally written as a brass band piece (Cadets 97).

That’s my thought. Flo also has mics they position in front of whatever amps the corps use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look, I'm sorry that SCV smoked whatever corps you like, but having a stage on the field is not the same thing as having giant chairs, palm trees, construction equipment, barstools, and whatever hell the else got dragged out of a TJ Maxx. I mean, seriously. Some of these corps make the field look as if a Wal-Mart truck jackknifed in the middle and they're still cleaning up the debris. I think SCV should win. And I think their stages are properly described as props every bit as much as Bloo's chairs are. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCV's props are fully integrated into the show in such a way that they are hardly noticeable. I don't mind others props (big chairs are cool, and that painting is off the hook) but SCV has elevated the usage of props to such a never before seen sophisticated and integrated way. The props SCV uses are as important as any other element of their show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a line that cuts off HARD at BK (even though I'm nuts about their brass!!!!). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s my thought. If so they need to move them! Everything was great at the regionals. Come on SCV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
