Why is that an unreasonable ask? Who else MUST play music from a specific genre EVERY YEAR? Go watch 90 BD then.

That is literally their legacy and style of music they have always been associated with. That's like asking Phantom to have a show with no classical music. Sheesh! I would kill for a Manyard Ferguson tribute. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand not wanting to cater to the dinosaur as the activity does evolve, but we shouldn't let it evolve past where people are invited in. Let me ask you this. How many of the best picture Oscar winning movies have you seen in the past 15 years? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically, I think it was the Blue Devils who changed their ways and came back to playing more entertaining shows more often from 2014 on. A lot of people just couldn't get into shows like 2010 and 2012, but that doesn't make them hateful. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
