MGCpimpOtimp Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 I've wanted to do a concept like this with indoor drum line forEVER, super excited to see it. Some really cool insight into the show here https://generaleffectmedia.substack.com/p/the-beginning-is-the-end-is-the-beginning?utm_source=twitter&sd=pf&s=w 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A member of the battery is on my staff and he told me before he left for move ins they were learning the drill to the "closer" first but that it was being designed that it could start and end in any movement. But in the vein of a Mobius Strip, the order of movements would essentially be 1,2,3,4 or 2,3,4,1 or 3,4,1,2 or 4,1,2,3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a segment of a show or a piece of music. Like how many symphonies have different movements within the encompassing piece of music.

Generally, if there's a break in the action for audience applause or what have you, that can signify the end of one movement and beginning of the next.

So many corps use that as a way to get from one movement to the next, and Crossmen straight up won't be able to do that, considering they need to be ready to start or end the show where those would usually take place.

One of my favorite pieces that I've had the pleasure to play. Check out 2006 capital regiment they played it… Fairly well to 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The judges judge the show that you perform that night. You don't get any credit during the show for saying "hey, also we could've done the show in these 5 different ways too!" because... you didn't perform those shows. I think the "concept" of having a show like this is cool but I'm not sure how it is supposed to be "rewarded"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
