Popular Post jwillis35 Posted July 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 29, 2023 Boston Crusaders - Nice intro. Beautiful and controilled playing in the brass - the visual is a real step up here - this baritone feature is outstanding and one of the best I have heard - guard is doing some amazing tosses, so daring -- and OMG that guy that just did a quad or whatever it was and caught it behind his back one handed -- wow! - visual excellent is high with Boston. Feet, legs, timing all locking in with the music. We will have to see how Bluecoats do in this regard. Only BD perhaps handles this aspect better. Boston just looks and moves so well - percussion sounded great in this movement 3 feature...Pretty sweet. They are really locking in - great tuba solo, and the tuba soli feature is killer - Oh Holy Cow percussion that was insane - Brass and percussion are just scorching earth tonight. So is guard. This corps is on FIRE! Across the board Boston has just about as good caption strength in the performance areas as anyone. What a joy to watch and listen to. - That Flugel solo was pristine, just gorgeous - The dynamic control is this brass line is so top notch, maybe even a pinch more nuanced than Carolina...and that is saying a lot. Not as big of a sound but still incredibly controlled and good. - Oh here we go, new visual prop (I like this tarp); adds some color to this show. - DANG...the crowd is eating this show up. Big ovation! - That was one awesome performance. So strong in all captions and to me the only question about whether they can catch Blue Devils comes down to GE. In brass, percussion and guard they can hang. Even visual proficiency they may be close (though that is BD's forte). All I can say for now is I LOVE THIS SHOW! Even more sold on this tonight. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The people at the props just need to yell "SLOW DOWN" to the people running with the tarp 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
