kevingamin Posted September 2, 2023 Author Share Posted September 2, 2023 Out comes the red carpet as the drum line comes forward during the start of the third movement. All of the guard is now in formal wear as if this was itself a red carpet event. John Mayer is conducting from a Coleman cooler. Now I’ve seen everything.

Mikah Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 Oops! I forgot about the time difference and missed the Columbus Saints. I see some familiar faces from last year in the Govenaires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 2, 2023 Author Share Posted September 2, 2023 Finishing the show, the corps restates the Paparazzi theme on the right side of the field while the guard performs on flags on the left side. They then run back to the props and one of the guard members takes the red carpet to the sounds of cameras. One of the horns pulls his soloist mic off his horn and acts like he’s interviewing her.

kevingamin Posted September 2, 2023 Author Share Posted September 2, 2023 Show theme is “The Power of 3”. This is not based on the Doctor Who episode of the same name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevingamin Posted September 2, 2023 Author Share Posted September 2, 2023 Nice opening with a tenor on hand drum while a guard member dances around him with white fabrics. Trumpet soloist plays the first part of the Bacchanal theme. After two baritones join into to make a duet, the full corps comes in on the full theme to complete the intro of the show.

kevingamin Posted September 2, 2023 Author Share Posted September 2, 2023 On the first full movement, a trumpet, mellophone, and baritone trade off the melody, sometimes soloing, sometimes dieting. Three more trumpet join in before the rest of the corps adds in for a full out jam session. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 2, 2023 Author Share Posted September 2, 2023 Third movement is one I remember from the movie October Sky, performed by Boston Crusaders in 2008. Guard comes out with lovely starry flags, the background fading from gold to dark blue as if the sun was going down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
