yabetterbelieveit Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 What guard moment was the best, most memorably awesome this year to you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halcyon122 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 The massed flags in the middle of the Cavaliers big block at the very beginning of the show. Great flag work, and in such close quarters with the rest of the corps. I'm always amazed that someone didn't get decked every time they did it...

Matt_S Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I love the spinning flags in the Bluecoats show, a few bars after the steel drums come in for the first time. Music and motion, combining for a great effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arno0940 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I've got a few.... Cadets Ballad - the movement and sabre work is unreal Glassmen - silent guard work in the closer and characterization by the performers was amazing Blue Devils - All rifles during part of the show - enough said!

Bleu Raeder Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Blue Devils - side one guard block in the opener. Cavies - staying in character Phantom - tells the story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom&Phitch Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 The ripple flag toss at the end of the Cadets opener. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justanopinion Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I actually loved the rifle "turn around" ripple in BD's show. I think they may have taken it out for finals because of some errors in semis, but every other time I saw that guard effect during the year, they nailed it!

Wild Nights Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Well, I loved the Bluecoats guard. They were very clean! I also remember the first time I heard Ave Maria- on the last big held out chord that rings and rings and rings and rings....I felt like I was in a trance or something, watching the flags swirling and swirling and swirling and swirling...... .....until the cutoff, where I was left speechless.
