NakedEye Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Design wise: Bloo>Crown>Boston. On the Waterfront is so good that I wish they used it more as a through line throughout the whole program and had a bit less of some of the other stuff. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcsnare93 Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 (edited) I've enjoyed Boston's show more after each viewing. This felt tired though. Edited July 19, 2023 by dcsnare93 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My English prof in college explained it to us as, “You read this as a serious psychological study of obsession and survival, you can read this as a rollicking sea tale, you can read this as an extended series of middle school dick jokes. There’s probably other ways to read it too. Have fun!” My favorite book for a reason 🥰 Secretly deeply silly, that’s the fun 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a plain McDonald's hamburger. Meat and bun only 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I’m very disappointed in the quality of shows this year compared to last year. I might be alone in that feeling, but I haven’t seen much tonight that has really excited me. I’ll say that it takes me a little longer each year for some shows to grow on me. But I usually come around on most of them. It’s been a while since there’s been a top 12 show that’s done absolutely nothing for me by finals night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwillis35 Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Great job by Boston! The top 4 are just stacked with great brass, percussion and guard. Incredible stuff. I love their music. The baritone section in this corps is truly outstanding. Tubas sounded awesome. Visual program is mostly more traditional vs Bloo and BD. But I don't mind that. Some very readable forms. As with Bloo and BD closer needs some adjustments. They also need one of their show segments to really pop and grab the crowd in a big way kind of like that Tango from last year. Still definitely one of my favorite shows of the summer. We are lucky to see such a strong top 4 this year. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
