OhioBoy_99 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I've been trying to read around to see if their halftime performance at the NFL Hall of Fame Game will be televised and no luck so far 😓 (Wishful thinking I know). Either way this is a huge opportunity for the corps! I went in 2014 (barely remember the game itself) but I remember they brought Tennessee State's marching band up to perform and that was a lot of fun to watch. Hopefully NFL gets something worked out to showcase halftime on a national scale along with the game. But enough of my ramblings. Also Bloo is rehearsing in Little Rock currently. Isn't this usually the stop of the tour where they add their new ending? 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungMusician Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I’m not seeing this corps peak anytime soon. I’ve heard a few people being worried about it, but the corps still has so much to work on, as well as a new ending to put on. This is the Bluecoat’s year. Meanwhile, I hope this is the year they grab the Ott! They play beautifully. LETS GO BLOO!!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're tellin' me that they didn't know the only reason anyone was at the game was to see the halftime show? In all seriousness I was pretty fortunate to grow up in a town that valued the band just as much as the football team. Think they have that old advert sitting around anywhere tho? haha!

That's the rub. Given the competitive history of the team... halftime was indeed the reason for going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
