So, Louie-ville is an acceptable pronunciation, but the locals pronounce it either loo-a-ville or loo-a-vul. 2 minutes ago, KVG_DC said: Luv-ill. In southern Indiana. Literally slurred into two syllables. The “vul” is definitely a Southern thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better bring it back: First time watching Academy this year. Did the same folks design this show as some of their previous ‘cool’ shows? Seems like a missed opportunity for a Willy Wonka show. Talking design & not the students. There might be one or two holdovers, but in general different design team and staff from the Vanity Fair, Mary Poppins, Drum Corpse Bride, By a Hare years. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LabMaster Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 9 minutes ago, KVG_DC said: Animal Farm show won me over to Boston after having been away from the activity very closely for the most part since seeing them light up College Park with Red in 2000. My hiatus was, in part, disgust over the whole G7 stuff. So I've had a soft spot for BAC ever since then. Knowing they've done a literal top to bottom overhaul of how a Drum Corps can be run well is part of the appeal for me. And seeing it pay off this season (and undoubtedly in the future) is great. One of the key points made by BAC’s Animal Farm show was (as far as what G7 corps were included) that all corps are equal. But some are more equal than others. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoyWonder1911 Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Colts percussion is rockin'! But it seems like the show isn't finished. Show seems very consistent beginning to end but I feel like it lacks big moments. I need a "blow me away" moment and it didn't happen. I hope there is an addition. Show ended abruptly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I, myself, being Kentucky born and raised just south of the Indiana border, pronounce it as looel (rhymes with dual)-vul, which is also an acceptable pronunciation. Luv-ill is not acceptable, but we all understand what you mean when you say that. 😊 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
