Contrast this not just with 1988 and 1996 but with Madison's "McArthur Park." The playing is rhythmically stiff. The keyboards are just not Spanish enough to fill well. The screaming trumpets are not musical. And the ending is a weak coda. Little things -- syncopation, solo work, cymbal play -- make a big difference.

1980 baby! I marched snare for Spirit that year. Our horns were 2nd only to BD and we tied for top drums. Good year for Spirit and good year for drum corps in general. This was a great tune. It actually has a melody.

In the Brass Roots video, asked which 5 corps were benchmark corps, Jim Elvord said for him, in the 60's it was the Royalaires, Cavies; 70's was Madison, Santa Clara and "clearly the 80 Blue Devils...total package". Proud to be a part of a drum corps that move the activity forward.
@SharadDixit276 жыл бұрын
@ hard corps: That's a pretty arrogant statement. The Blue Devils are "moving the activity" backward in the opinion of many fans, staff and people behind the scenes, what with sliding trombones and what not. Then why don't those "benchmark" corps go start their own drum corps organization and let the Blue Stars, The Troopers, The Crossmen, The Bridgemen, The Garfield Cadets, The Blue Coats, Carolina Crown, Phantom Regiment, Blue Knights, Boston Crusaders, The Academy (who should have made in the top twelve not Madison) and the rest of Drum Corps compete without all the arrogance from those corps and people like you. We don't need you. DCI will do just fine without those corps. As far as I'm concerned, ALL the corps are winners. Even the ones that don't make the top twelve. And believe me (and I'm not the only one who feels this way) the 2017 Blue Devils were totally overrated last year and did not have the best show. There is a lot of politics and corruption in DCI. The "flight of The Bumblebee" was muddled, all over the place, and it sounded like they were playing kazoos. And the uniforms were gawdy and tastelessly flamboyant. Like it was a San Fransico Pride March. Pink Shashes. Sliding Trombones? Might as well call them a band, not a corps. The "contemporary" Blue Devils are literally and presently destroying Drum Corps. And I'm not the only one who feels that way. The Madison Scouts were pathetic, what with those "uniforms" and all. Many alumni also feel that way and were embarrassed to say, "That's my corps." I don't usually "spew out" my opinions. but you comment merited it. The fans of the corps you mentioned are some of the most irritating, annoying "get the hell away from me" people who go to drum corps shows. They make people want to puke. I'm done. Have a nice day. :)

Love the arrangement. Love the Blue Devils. However, writing mallet parts for everything, all the time, everywhere, stuck up front, is hammeringly boring. No, it's worse than boring, it's irritating. Sometimes, no often, drumming should just be drumming.
@victorlee89306 жыл бұрын
Then you should appreciate Tom Nanni's arrangements in 80 and 81. Compare "Free" and "La Suerte de Los Tontos" which were performed in both 79 and 80, but with different mallet arrangers. There are a lot fewer notes in 80. We couldn't be heard anyway when the horn line was blasting.
