Comparitively they really don't. Isn't that usually one of your biggest gripes? Adding in extra notes for the sake of difficulty?

You are correct! 

However that doesn't necessarily mean Crown doesn't also water stuff down as incognito implied

Are you reading things that just aren't there?

 

We're talking visual, not music. Everyone makes music changes. Not every can clean up their drill, so they add in flutter steps everywhere so they don't have to. 

You haven't answered my question

When have they watered anything down when it comes to drill? Hmm? We all know they watered down the music in 2014's closer, but that's not what we're talking about.

 

Edited to say that I just finished watching a video from this weeks rehearsals and guess what...changes we're made to the drill, but not to water it down like you are suggesting but rather to enhance it.

The hose is used sparingly.  Most of the hosing has been to avoid the wacky timing demands Crown places on their ensemble.  We’ve become so used to what that hornline does every year that the difficulty is often now overlooked.  

I can’t think of a drill hosing off hand. 

One of the fundamental design tenets of Crown is to do things others won’t even try.  Its not an egotistical thing;   It’s more of “ok we’ll see if we can actually do that”.    Its just part of who they are.

This. 

And when they truly execute well, it’s something to behold.

Which goes for this year, because when they get this drill clean is going to really be something compared to the flutter step.

Let's see where Crown is tomorrow night in Memphis against Boston & SCV. That will give us a better indication where the judges score them in Visual & GE captions and are they getting rewarded for what they are doing. 

At the Liberty Bowl -- a venue Crown is mildly acquainted with!  

In any case I think this year is going to be a "long climb" kind of season.   They have a lot of work ahead to clean this beast.
