martin84 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Probably a little late to respond to a thread started six years ago but I had a tape of the Concord Pavilion preseason performance that was fantastic. Solo work for BD was excellent. Freelenacers were on there too and I loved their 1993 show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear, I'd love to see what a corps like Blue Devils or Scouts (someone who has a history for screamers) could do with a "Chase" show. I know it's probably not complex enough musically to score well today, but dang it sure would be FUN! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's probably not complex enough musically to score well today, but dang it sure would be FUN! I know that I'm supposed to like that show, and I heard lots of people hyping it at the shows I attended. I just couldn't get into that show for some reason. Maybe if I heard it now, I'd better be able to appreciate it. I wish I could hear it right now, but it's not on FN... Oh well... I'd really like to be able to check it out again.

superOOk Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 (edited) IMHO, this thread deserves to be resurrected ;) This is in my top 3 all time brass books. The solos leave the show incredibly exposed, but they pulled it off! Like many of you have said, I too loved the old BD so much. I wish they'd go back to this style. Here is a standstill for ya'll.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AK9Xbc0LqgI&list=PLLIu7R3WudrpRQ9Ej51eJQr8rgUQEB4Uw Edited September 30, 2015 by superOOk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I didn't care for the take on Strawberry Soup, the show was performed so well though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Guns Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 That 93 horn line is boss!! But i have to give a very VERY slight edge to BD's 91 horn line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sideways Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 My first drum corps show ever was in Port Huron in 1993. Seeing this show live and again for an encore....I was hooked for life. Especially with there being no track at that Port Huron stadium my ears were ringing for days! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
