We need more hair flipping. Hyup. The judges and I are seeing different guards I guess. Edited July 30, 2022 by scheherazadesghost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No whining from this Boston supporter. Congratulations to the Blue Devils tonight!! To be the best, you have to beat the best. And the Blue Devils are the gold standard of excellence in the activity. I remain proud of my Crusaders! Keep working hard/smart. With only 2 weeks left in this fantastic season, I hope all corps remain (or get) healthy. Enjoy these next couple of weeks everyone!! I agree, Barneveld. This Boston supporter is not whining either. I, too, fell asleep last night. These central time zone shows complete with rain delays are brutal on us East Coasters. I would have slept through the night but I got a text from a BAC horn player around 1:45 my time very excited about the job they did. He said the staff is keeping them focused like a laser beam on the performance levels and they can't wait for tonight. He did tell me that as of right now, nobody in Boston is sick. It would seem as though the corps being sealed away in a giant mayonnaise jar under Funk and Wagnell's porch is working...for now. (And I just lost everyone under the age of 50.....) Anyway, CRUSADE ON! 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love them to finish 4th this year, but it’s not the same thing ever year. They are no more the same than anyone else. I'd say the top groups are formulaic within themselves... except Bluecoats. I agree that it's not the "same," but they do follow a recipe whether they do it consciously or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't name two similar formulas from them since this design team took over in 2013. I guess "big props" could be formulaic, but I'm thinking of the other aspects of design. This year, for example, much narration and no clear ballad. Edited July 30, 2022 by kdaddy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
