MikeRapp Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 If Spirit could somehow steer toward that big, ballsy brass sound, they could really establish a niche. Their ballad has some real weight to it. All the other stuff to me was noisy and at times cheesy. Stick to that huge brass sound, lean toward jazz, and you could have a regular finalist.

I still need to figure out exactly what bothers me a bit since I can't quite figure out how to put it into words, but I wish that show came together better visually.

The visual design just doesn't work as well as the music book does, even though there are many parts that I like a lot. But, that being said, I'm still loving everything about this music book, and the kids sell the HELL out that show. I still REALLY look forward to that show every time I get to see it!!! And getting to hear that phenomenal brass book!! Yeah. It's just a bit too disjointed in some manner. There's so much going on, the going on becomes a distraction rather than guiding my eye to the next element. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is where BD has mastered the art of DCI. You never have anyone ever doing their own thing. There was just too much visual noise.

wvu80 Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Extra credit GE points to Academy for wearing those super sharp looking white unis. Deduct points for all those corps wearing those visually boring gray pants. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
