Bluecontra93 Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 The Bluecoats recently switched to a form of Caballah worship for their morning stretch. It emphasizes relaxation and proper breathing. They figured it really worked for the breath support of Madonna and Brittany Spears, so naturally, it was a perfect fit in the drum corps idiom. Brass scores will go through the roof, the increased oxygen levels will make them virtually fatigue free giving them the most aggressive performance of any corps in the history of the activity, perfecting the GE caption in both music and visual. One staffer was quoted as saying, "Are you sure it's not the shepherd's pie....because it's really good." Still others contend that Mike MacIntosh (who now as one percussion staffer for every person in the battery) is really the devil (as reference to his "Big Dawg" nickname) and this is one of the signs of the apocolypse.Canadian staffers Doug Thrower, Dave MacKinnon, James Freeman have openly pined that if the Bluecoats win DCI, they will "Take their puck and sticks and get the heck oot of the states forever....because in Toronto, the air is clean, the people are friendly, and everyone is in love." This statement has caused many conspiracy theorists to claim that the Bluecoats numbers will be inflated to the point that they will win, just to rid the Bluecoats of Canadians forever. Color Guard designer Jamie Oakley came up with purple and yellow for the color guard uniforms in what he claims was a visit from alien visitors. He claims that the aliens looked like Martha Stewart, only fatter and they were male. They carried weapons that shot bolts of fabric....only purple and yellow. Jamie claims that the hermaphroditic alien stated, "Caesar was cloaked in purple when he was proclaimed ruler." Because Jamie had been knocked woozy in his dream by a bolt of yellow fabric from the alien weapon, he thought the alien was referring to Michael Cesario and this was some kind of planning meeting for DCI top designers. When he woke up, there was a sketch.....in purple and yellow. Strange but true. Bluecoats visual caption head Stephanie Furniss recently won an arm wrestling match with George Hopkins. The stakes: a box of steak knives in a presentation box, the complete memoirs of Donald Sinden, and the visual ensemble caption at semis and finals. It all points to one thing....a Bluecoats title. For those that can't sift through the bovine residue, this is fiction....gotta add that for DCP! DW Darren, I have to chime in on that one...........YOU ARE F-IN HILARIOUS.

After housing the 'coats at my school for 3 days, I can say that the product and the work ethic these kids/staff have is just very inspiring, as are the other corps out there. After having the idiot jock coaches boot them from numerous fields for practice, they seemed to eat it up and pump out even better rehearsals. Whether they place loads higher or not, who knows for crying out loud! All I know is that I'm proud to have helped them out as an alum and that I wish all the 'coats the best of luck. If you haven't seen the show, get out and see it. It's loads of fun to watch, even at this early stage. I can only imagine what it will be like clean. I also would like to wish all the other corps who work so unbelieveably hard good luck as well. Not too much though. :P Penny96 Bluecoat alum 92-96 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver_King Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 That score makes the 'Coats a very serious contender for the title this year. <---found in another topic not saying who it is but for people saying they don't say they say it theres proof.

DaveMLBC Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 (edited) Finals week will see two surprise additons to the show: first, the return of that half cape thing that used to come off the end of the sash, which is worth about .75. Second, Larry Hershman will be somewhere on stadium grounds. That’s worth a full point. And thus they win DCI.

cire Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 i personally dont think they will win. can they win in the future? most definently.. but i would NOT mind seeing them in 2nd, with blue in the first two spots. based on current scores only (and not seeing their show) i can easily see them making the top 5, and maybe the top 3. it just depends on how much cleaner they can get, and how consistent they stay.
