Chief Guns Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 3 hours ago, onionhead said: Phantom's show moved me the first time I saw it at the theater, I'm glad they made it to finals, but I wish it wasn't at Spirit's expense. IMO, making the top 12 should have been the least of Spirit's worries, as they should be breathing a sigh of relief that finals week ended when it did. That amazing corps from Diamond Bar CA was running them down at an alarming rate. Another night or two, SOA could have found themselves in 14th. And i loved Spirit's show. Pacific Crest just put alot of corps on notice for next year. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTNK Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 It was a little bit cool at the end of the first show I went to in June, those early summer evenings in the midwest can be quite chilly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeRapp Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 (edited) The Cavaliers ballad and black bird were the two moments I always made sure I didn’t miss. No matter how many times I watched it, it’s still impacted me. Edited August 22, 2019 by MikeRapp 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hair on my arms basically stood up throughout the entire show. It was an emotional juggernaut. Same. When I first saw/heard it, at the Memorial Day show-and-tell, it sounded as if someone had lit a fuse on a stick of dynamite. Then, POW Others: The sight of Cavies' rifles flying through the air at the end of their show The supernova circle of Blue Stars hit in Frozen BD's trademark swirl Cadets' 10-minute tenor feature More BK: All the negative aural space and pure artistry of Hurt. The battery echoes from stage right were just enormously effective. And Daniel Belcher conducting Liquid; what a gas. The way Crown brought it, and brought it, and brought it through their entire closer. Hugely satisfying payoff. Bluecoats' long, long decrescendo off their first hit. Sooo musical. Scouts' tumbling blocks down to the sideline on stage left. Savannah Light taking charge of the Troopers. She's, like, 5 feet high, and Ten Feet Tall. The duet in Gabriel's Oboe.

Add to these two the Crown soloists and Madison’s Friday field entrance. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hook'emCavies Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Countless numbers for me.... just countless. All of the corps were incredible! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRacer Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Eyeliner, purple hair, PJs, “ME ME ME ME!!!” and no Aussies made my blood run cold. Sorry, not drinkin’ the Koolaid. Chill moment: the camera watching the Crossmen DM slowly enter the field, and hearing all the bando boys in the theater audience gasp. Two minutes later they show the DM on the podium, and the bando boys who didn’t know the Valhalla caller & DM were one & the same gasped again, this time louder (“OMG, I thought that was a *guard* person..!!”) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
