Bruckner8 Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 I want “anything goes” DCI. All age. Any number of members. No field dimension restrictions (still need a way to measure elapsed time on and off field, but that can vary per venue). Tie in to the stadium PA system if you want. Go into the stands; encourage audience participation. But at the very least, allow all instruments and all electronics. (I couldn’t care less if the entire hornline is mic’ed as long as it’s effective. I couldn’t care less if the entire hornline is recorded, and no one actually playing!) I just want amazing excellence and entertainment. Very few corps are meeting that standard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which corps has the b#### to do Dancing Queen? Edited March 31, 2019 by Jurassic Lancer 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While the ABBA tour will use live people on stage with instruments, Agnetha, Björn, Benny, and Anni-Frid will actually appear on stage as holograms.

Notice I said live people on stage with instruments, not people playing instruments live. The live musicians will more than likely be mimic-syncing to recorded music. It is the only way to guarantee perfect sync to the holograms which are, I beleve, cgi constructed from videos of former performances. But imagine the 20## Blue Devils performing side by side with the 1994 BD, or any other winning show. Bruckmister would likely be in Utopia if for nothing more than the innovative progression of technology! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also played “Make All Our Dreams Come True” (Laverne and Shirley theme) that year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a quick Google search to help you. PETA and “Grab your Wallet” list lots of boycotts. If you want to boycott all boycotts, you can drive a Caterpillar tractor to Chick-fil-A for a chicken sandwich, have a pint of Ben and Jerry’s for desert, go home and place an order on Amazon, book a flight on Air France, make a craft or two with items purchased at Hobby Lobby, and pay for it all with a loan from Lending Tree. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And If I wanted to be even more naughty, I'd wear my Nike Sweatshirt on the Air France Flight, relax, sip an x large coke and watch the NFL Network all the Way to Moscow. But its cold in Moscow, so I can't forget to take my fur coat along too. Edited March 31, 2019 by BRASSO 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
