Am I correct in remembering that Metallica used Ecstasy of Gold in some way? It was (is?) their entrance music. 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? Not only the drum corps activity but every activity, company and organization. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Powerful evil chord from the brass. Cellist sounds like she’s using a distortion pedal to give her sound more of a electric guitar sound. Horns burst out from the rig tied to it with black fabric. Oil cans all of the field now “spill” oil. Crowd jumps to the feet for a standing O, and that’s before the corps rushes to the front and just unleashes!

Reminded me of 2018 when he introduced Mandarins for making World finals for the first time. Got the crowd to stand while they were just entering the field.
