JFitz19 Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Stop: Tossing rifles and flags over/away from the corps at the end of the show; tossing rifles from a high prop to guard members on the field. Body movement/dance included to “Check the box.” Fine, if it is organic to the show, however IMHO, that doesn’t happen very often. Drastically cut back: Running. Too much of it appears to be aimless. So many corps doing so much of it, It is getting to be very tedious. Keep doing: Lots of unison full guard work. Thanks Crown/Boston. This change has made guards very exciting again and has ended BD’s strangle hold on the Zingali. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcibrando Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 (edited) Stop: feeling like you must have stages,, winterguard uniforms, trombones, sousaphones, no hats, overkill electronics to be competitive (then again, it feels like GE is being scored more for this "stuff" than actual content or even sometimes use of it so?) Start: having difficult drill while playing (thank you to some corps this year for still doing that) and go back to some type of corps identity Change: judging - if electronic balance is bad or has issues, why does this not impact the music or GE scores? I have other things in mind too (possible split up of World Class into 2 division types... more traditional v/s anything goes...aka summer BOA/WGI which is where it's going... but I'll stop there Edited August 13, 2019 by dcibrando 5 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GO! Stop: Singing, Violins and Guitars. Start: Playing music we can tap to. Change: Have at least 8-10 Corps per show to include Open Class Corps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
