kevingamin Posted July 15, 2023 Author Share Posted July 15, 2023 Skyliners will start the DCA portion of the show. They are in red Sky t-shirts and black shorts tonight, except for the honor guard, because Sky would NEVER. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted July 15, 2023 Author Share Posted July 15, 2023 The lone tenor player is playing a djembe while standing on the 50. The snares, each playing various hand drum instruments, join hint. A trio of brass players play a haunting melody as the rest of the corps plays backfield. Build up to the corps turning front and it’s Samson and Delilah they’re playing. Guard DOES have uniforms. It’s just the horns and percussion that don’t yet.

kevingamin Posted July 15, 2023 Author Share Posted July 15, 2023 Third movement is the theme from October Sky, the movie about NASA engineer Homer Hickam. Boston Crusaders played this in 2008. Saber soloist nails her toss at the climax of the ballad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted July 15, 2023 Author Share Posted July 15, 2023 Only 20ish horns, but they’re putting out a strong sound, both facing us and back field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted July 15, 2023 Author Share Posted July 15, 2023 The performance ended with the ballad, so I’m guessing there’s some show left to put on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted July 16, 2023 Author Share Posted July 16, 2023 Columbus Saints now entering the field in their new uniforms. Drum majors still waiting for theirs as they’re in t-shirt or polo. Guard is in lovely wine colored dresses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
