MikeRapp Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Funky ending. Kind of a let down to what is a really impressive piece of work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's so open and balanced, not the laser effect of so much brass. It's a pleasure to listen to. I don't believe the caption head has any drum corps experience, just a fantastic teacher. He knows what sounds good. Hearing that hornline in an encore performance in 2016, unamped and raw is one of my favorite drum corps performances.

It's a pleasure to listen to. They've been shining in brass for the past few years now. Used to be the guard that stood out so much, now it's the brass. They're starting to balance all the sections with strength though and their push upward shows it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCI-86 Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 I can see why BS guard is in the top 5. Insanely difficult and varied book and really starting to clean up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2muchcoffeeman Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Thematically, aside from the unis, there isn't much that's "wild" or "winter" or whatever in that show. I would enjoy it just as much if they weren't in Timberland getups. It's good music and great marching, with a killer guard. If there's anything particularly outdoorsy about it other than the costumes, it's over my head. Great show! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
