BWise Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 So in my quick recap to BDs last night .. Crown ahead in all subcaps except guard .. which feels like the judge. Perc was way up from Saturday. .4. Overall the 0.95 Crown is ahead is music. For entertainment purposes only. I know these are not H2H. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t mean that it technically doesn’t work, I mean from an audience perspective it just isn’t working yet. It seems like no one wants to watch a drum corps show while they have their phone in their hand. The corps March and play well, but the gimmick and all just seems a little forced at the moment. Maybe more will buy into it as the season progresses. I did try the app, and it has alot of kinks to work out. It's cool but I'm going be one of those that is gonna just enjoy the show. I think the younger kids are going to enjoy it though. I don't think it's going to hurt them at all. But someone needs to tell them about it so they can work on it going forward.

Starting at part 3 https://youtu.be/bo5rJJdaSRs I find it funny the soloist in the ballad is just in the pit. No staging or anything. Just get in the pit and play. Whereas I’m noticing practically all soloists in every other show are integrated and doing something while playing. If anything they’re at least off on their own, as a focal point. That’s how soloists typically always have been… Not in this show. Just a strange choice to me. I don’t think it hurts them, but you’d think they’d maybe show him off a little more.

oldbandguy Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Has the "choir" been cut from the ballad for good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they're saying his PLAYING will show him off just fine...and he does go up on a stage for his solo during the percussion feature. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair, and I’m fine with that. Completely actually. I’ve just noticed the soloists of shows in the past few years have had their own sorta celeb moment. But, I suppose you’re right with the stage part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
