So, serious question: Are there any rumblings about their rep for this year? The only thing I heard at camp was they will have over 3 minutes of music after the next camp in 3 weeks. They did learn a classic Phillip Bliss song though. Sounded really good...not part of the show though. The new brass staff is very impressive and the new brass caption head is the real deal. Clear to see why the Bluecoats were so good under his direction. 3 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It definitely seems an undoing of anything associated with GH and perhaps good moves to save the corps. Will they be THE Garfield Cadets of NJ again? are they allowed back in NJ?

Or, one could take the position that by talking about it we can guard against repeating history. His influence is gone. It left with him and his board that got flushed. His influence is not only merely dead, but really most sincerely dead. oh no. his imprint on the activity is very visible in a myriad of ways...some of them good.

Picking at a scab never lets the wound to heal, physically and/or emotionally. Check with any medical doctor or mental health professional (psychologist, psychiatrist, etc.) for the veracity of what I say. Your point is good when one is distanced from the hurt and can analyze it objectively. We are not there yet. Recurring vomiting back his influence is wounding some, and granted there are some who like to live in the constant pain and some (outside the corps) who like to keep inflicting it, perhaps from competitive jealousies of their own pains unhealed. sadly for many, closure won't ever happen without a guilty verdict in a court of law 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Bliss piece had some power to it...even with everyone's personal horns I thought it sounded great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you are correct...the Bliss piece sounded good. Excited to watch this brass line progress under the new staff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
