I heard that and then thought the same. My wife was of the opinion that since he had already introduced Troop twice during preshow, that maybe he didn't realize how long their preshow was, and then "introduced them one more time". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same thing went though my mind. And he wasn't the announcer in Montreal, was he? I distinctly remember a guy with a Quebecois accent on my old cassette tapes 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voracious -- we are voracious because we need petroleum and coal for transportation and to generate electricity? Really ironic considering how the drum corps activity couldn't exist if it were not for huge amounts of diesel and electricity -- What is this show a statement about? I wouldn’t overthink it…. oil barons are one of the most tried and true American symbols for greed in art since the 19th century, which is why the theme works without needing much explanation Edited August 13, 2022 by saxfreq1128 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevingamin Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Mysterious opening to the show, with the guard starting underneath a sheet of silk fabric, appropriately, while also cocooned like butterflies. After the opening statement, here comes the drum line, which fans have talked about all season long. Very tasty licks from the snares to start the feature. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
