Given where Troopers have come from in 2022 -- an oozing, dystopian show about the corruption of greed -- I kinda think 2023 is not going to be a Mr. Happy Sunshine on My Shoulders John Denver Singalong. I get the vibe that "lasso the Sun" is less Stevie Wonder; more Icarus. Less Fun in the Sun, and more Playing with Fire. Less daring-do; more hubris. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if they will use solar to power their pit/amps? Or to charge batteries for indoor stadiums 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe its me, but the part of the song, beginning at 3:10 of their video on YouTube, sure sounds a lot like Voracious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmc5682 Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 I am so excited for the Troopers. This year they had a highly entertaining, and a well designed show that got them back into the top 12. I know they will have the best recruiting year they have had in a while, because students will have been inspired by the 2022 show. More talent, with a good staff in place can only bring even brighter days ahead for the corps from Casper. I am sure their guard will double in size in 2023. They had a talented guard this year, but they just needed more bodies on the field. The bottom line is I have not been this pumped about the Troopers in a very long time. Go Troop! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2muchcoffeeman Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 This was the January camp, just concluded. I would imagine there were a good number of callbacks at that camp, so not all of them got contracts. But I wasn't there, so I don't know for sure.
