When I saw the DM polishing an apple and two more on the podium before Guardians started their performance Tuesday night, I was soooooo tempted to shout out, "How do you like them apples?"

It's a perfectly fine show --- just a bit tame after what they've done the last few years. I also feel like they typically design their transitions a bit better....the show felt disjointed to me. Lots of little moments that didn't really come together as a whole as well as it usually does for them. Whereas it's my favorite of their four shows in O.C. Finals (and I bought the unprintable tee shirt from last year's show) ... BUT I agree that it was sloppy. I said as much to the woman running their souvenir booth on Tuesday night, and she said it had been a challenging season. They ended up 0.9 behind last year's W.C. Prelims score, but 1.5 ahead of last year's O.C. Finals score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was right up front and center, but it was quick: I only realized it was live at the very last second, and then she walked away from the mic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloo got one perfect score in achievement tonight and there will be more by finals. Or, the judges can just drop the scoring range back down a little to ensure they don't run out of room.

I feel like the whole BD show is too similar to most recent BD shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvu80 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 7 hours ago, EricS said: how can anyone call iconic Beatles music hokey? Because it is. The early music, anyway. I want to hold your hand is pretty simple music with early pubescent lyrics. That's not a criticism, just an observation. I grew up with the music of The Beatles and the Beach Boys. I loved it in the 60's and 70's but I've grown more musically as I've gotten older. Bloo does a fantastic job with their drum corps arrangements and showing the progress and growth with the music throughout their presentation, just as the Beatles did in real life. I would not have chosen the music of the Beatles for a championship contending drum corps show but Bloo did what all the top corps do, they play it so well I enjoy it from beginning to end. They made me like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
