07 crossmen rep... something to rebuild roots?


Recommended Posts

Unfortunately, or some reason, the concept of "returning to a corps' roots" is frowned upon by many members of this board, seen by them as being stuck in the past, failing to innovate, and not breaking new ground.

:(

Must. Be. Different! Like. Every. Other. Corps!

Yes, lets be different and play jazz... :huh:

Sing Sing Sing.....

Definately. Benny Goodman and swing would make me throw babies. Even my own. :)

I see someone follows Texas marching band. :P

I have a feeling that Crossmen's show this year isn't gonna have any "roots" involved at all.

I say Dave Matthews, Rusted Root, Train, stuff like that....

Or how about JOHHNY CASH! That would be pretty sweet.

Tank! - Cowboy Bebop

This would rock, combined with "The Jazz Police" from Gordon Goodwin's Big Phat Band.

Add a construction worker, an Indian and the "biker" iron cross motif, and... voila! .... Village People jazz.

Theme "Back on the Block" - Quincy Jones's stuff never sounded better than when Crossmen played "Birdland" practically verbatim off the album. Provocative juxtaposition of double entendres; fabulous music. If the brass can handle it ;-)

In this day of narration and vocals, the rap that precedes Birdland could enliven and set up a show. Somebuddy should look at the ballad that Sarah V sings on that album -- very instrumental.
