Popular Post mcjordansc Posted August 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 12, 2023 Sitting in the stands in row seven, section 139, the Bluecoats just threw down a show that I haven’t seen out of them since 2019. Absolutely incredible. 15 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ContraFart Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Just now, lawdn said: Bloo's run really elevated starting with the ballad. Maybe it has always been that way. To me, that is also the point at which the narration becomes an accompaniment to the corps rather than the other way around. MMs performing so well and so joyfully. This show will stay in my head a long time. The ballad is my favorite part of the show, and then going into BUMP!, the energy just goes on from there. This is true artistry on a football field. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't a local small high school show where they can't provide power outlets at field level. I have no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

t.a.r.b. Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 1 minute ago, ContraFart said: There is a depth to the poem the show is based on. Its almost like a longing for times past. Not bad for a 500 year old poem. It’s an evocative poem, and you feel the author’s yearning and anger for what used to be. The Garden of Love exists only in memory, and sometimes the sentiment of “smile because it happened” just isn’t enough. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Photographer Jim Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Musically I very much enjoy Bluecoats show, but visually I’m not with them. Their giant props have jumped the shark for me. But it’s cool. I just close my eyes and listen 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
