college-phan Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Hope it’s not too early for this, but I think the future looks bright for Phantom after their performance tonight! This Phan is VERY happy and excited. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdaddy Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 A few items on my 2022 wishlist... - JD Shaw continues to lead the brass caption. - Let the design team get weird. The 2020 show was going to be Mahler's 5th, so not exactly weird, but certainly something new. - Allow electronics to be more substantial than choral voiceovers. Rob Ferguson leads Matrix Percussion for crying out loud - "he's a peacock, you gotta let him fly." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim K Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 I think Phantom has good reason to be hopeful for next year. This year’s show and the audience reaction should go a long way in recruiting and building up momentum. What this year’s show also demonstrated Phantom’s classic arrangements and style can still go a long way, but the challenge will be incorporating the style into a competitive show for the future. It can be done, but it won’t be easy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
college-phan Posted August 15, 2021 Author Share Posted August 15, 2021 I’m just glad all beliefs that Phantom wouldn’t make finals next year have been dispelled. It’s amazing what a staff extremely well suited to a program can do in such a short amount of time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwillis35 Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Glad to see they got the fan vote. That says a lot. I figured it would be close with Phantom Regiment and The Cadets. But there were a number of corps that really brought the house down. I do think Phantom will see a rise in auditions as they move forward, so best of luck to them. I enjoyed watching them this summer and absolutely loved their show. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’d never know it, though, by the cocky way they strut around. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStainGlass Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Had this discussion elsewhere. If they redid any other show would people have reacted the same as they did to the iconic 03? Say the 2004 or 2015 shows? My bet is no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about peacocks, but apparently turkey's don't. Edited August 15, 2021 by IllianaLancerContra further pontification 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
