It would, however, be a change from the recent past. 2015, for example. it would be very today's DCI - the "better show" knocks out a MUCH better performing corps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the tone of this is "We're the designers and our decisions are the future and we're just going to go where we want." I appreciated seeing their perspective, even if it was sanctimonious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sitting here saying oh #### off. I’m sitting here after 54 years, paid over $700 to sit here for three days and he’s calling me stupid. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whiskey, MOST DEFFINATELY! I followed THE ACADEMY here in Tempe since early May, and all 8-weeks of tour including the 14-1 rainout Flo Feeds that included them. i couldn't had Fathom their 2022 Tour to be (for me personally😥) the Most Frustrating tour to endure from afar since I started touring with them since 2004! HOWEVER, My Heart is bursting with Arizona Pride to see them put behind them an extrodinary summer Endurance Test of their metal, culminating in a 4+ point jump in Prelims and followed up today with a most satisfying, rewarding, inspirational life affirming Semi performance Creation that I and the Willy Wonka Corps of Oompa-Loompas, could have ever imagined. BRAVO, your delivery today was delectably delicious, and your Fans were Gobsmacked to their feet. The Academy's motto is: "The Effort IS The Prize". I know they walked off the field of competition Heads held up, leaving behind their Greatest of Prizes of the 2022 DCI 50th Anniversary Summer Tour. BRAVO and ENJOY! 💜 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrownBariDad Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Calgary -- I think they don't have any synth bass -- contras only. At last it sounds that way in the stadium. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
