Making a comment like that , about any corps' show this year is tone deaf. Pathological, really. Pathological Nobody. Corps amazing survival.

Which kind of makes you guilty of to which you were referring. Not really bagging on Boston. I am sure what they will do with them will be cool and I will enjoy it. All I was saying is that it seemed like a lot of money for a year where there will be no medals handed out, no matter how Boston themselves view this season. They can do whatever they want lol, it was just my opinion. I was simply making a comparison to what Crown did and what another corps was doing. What I thought was an innocent way of saying that Crown did well for 4 weeks of work and did not need to do anything special when returning to the field after a year off because of a pandemic was somehow triggering to some. Anyone else who took offense to this comment can see why Crown fans get worked up sometimes when they come to the Crown thread and make the same kind of comments that I made about another corps. This is the Crown thread with Crown fans who should be able to defend their favorite corps, albeit in a friendly manner. I will end by saying, again, that I am just glad that DCI is back and we can watch and, which is always the case for me, enjoy. P.S. I know I quoted you, but it was the shorter comment from earlier lol. Not trying to start anything with anyone in particular. Just some clarification Edited July 14, 2021 by TigerBaritone19 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making a comment like that , about any corps' show this year is tone deaf. Pathological, really. I really don't know this poppycock poster from a hole in the wall. I reread his comment above on Crown 2021 performance, and it seemed rather mild to me frankly. You caste it as " indecent ".. tone deaf "... and " pathological really ". Maybe there is some history here I'm unaware of between you and him. if so, that might explain for me your casting his comment on Crown's 2021 as " nothing ground breaking " as an observation by him you caste now as " indecent, tone deaf, and pathological ". Maybe the two of you have an antipathy toward one another that explains your reaction here. I just didn't see what he posted as in the realm of " pathological "...But, ok, who really knows. Crown's show performance was very good I thought. Loved the ballad in particular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wigwam Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 I thought Crown's show was amazing. I also thought Poppy's comment was fine, not the least bit offensive. He's right, the show wasn't ground breaking, but it wasn't supposed to be. It was a a wonderful show for friends, family, alumni and anyone else that wanted to watch. I thought it was entertaining, uplifting and it made me smile. Also, the level of performance was awesome for such a short time spent learning it.

Lance Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 I really like the rep. Especially the Halley stuff. Hope they do some more of his work in competition next year (I hope) and beyond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrownBariDad Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 5 hours ago, Lance said: I was actually wondering about that. On the video I watched (tuning) it said that the music was by Harloff. And then I noticed they played the same piece in their actual show. I'm a mega Klesch fan, and if it's by him, great. If it's by Harloff, also great! Crown is in great hands musically for decades, IMO. From what I've observed of the lot warmups, they'll go through a tuning sequence and at the end they'll usually launch into some power chords from the show music. So I guess it's a bit of both. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
