This is one of my favorite shows of the season so far. Feels like classic Phantom. Much better than the last few seasons from them. Needs a lot of polishing, and I have no idea where they’ll end up placing, but I LOVE the design.  It’s a shame that they’ve lost some talent because of the mishaps over the last few years.

He did; you can't expect to arrange a classic Phantom piece nearly note-by-note and expect to get free points... He really needs to step it up

That's the musical part that needs the most work.  And they might be limited what they can do with it it seems.  Programming FOEG wasn't a great move in the first place though, some bits are just too iconic with a corps to do again.

Visual design and just overall program pacing and coordination are my biggest issues with this Phantom Regiment show.  Musically I don’t mind it as much I guess.   Idk.  Just started watching so I can’t really compare but that’s what doesn’t seem up to par with finalist corps as of late to me. 

Some moments get close but then they lose me again.

Musically ok, visually, unmemorable. They have their work cut our for them to make this into something, but so do most of the other 10 to 14th place corps I've seen so far.

I think they’ll beat Scouts and Colts.

PR performance much improved. But this show feels a decade out of date. 

You’re probably right, but I loved it!

Well, I'll stand in front of the firing squad with you, because he absolutely did. Such a shame. I watched '93 Regiment last Sunday because FOEG was so glorious. I really miss arrangements like that.
