well they hired some good production people Tom are you listening? Tha ist what happens when you continue to use sports guys who never marched

@@tsan3796 Literally everybody in FloMarching that makes the content has marched. Jason Schladweiler marched both Vanguard and Bloo. Andy Schamma marched. Idk the rest of their names, but I know anybody important at FloMarching has marched

[@tsan3796]

I am specially talking about camera operators( which TDs tell them what to frame most of the time) I am stating people who may have marched are better candidates because they know the animal and should do more shows for Tom Blair's DCI telecast(live to tape/drives) Flomarching is a sub and or contracted entity for social media and streaming using the cheapest gear because it doesn't require huge cost factors in rentals and operation of hi tech gear. Just because you can ram out notes doesn't mean you can produce or run a 15 camera live truck two different worlds that is not Facebook or twitter. when you say "content" a term used for social mediums ...which are cheap operational platforms.

[@carl-ok9gn]

@Smoodeedoo yet you can't even hear the bass drums

[@ScallywagBeowulf]

People said that they didn't like Crown's show this year, as it wasn't the "brass filled" show that Crown usually has with big hits, and intense moments. As well, people have said it just didn't look that good, but I thought this show was awesome, and one of my favorites from this year. I love Crown, and I thought this was a nice change of pace, to include more percussion than usual, and I thought it turned out really well. Can't wait to see next year's show! Congrats on a great year Crown!

[@cravemoons3489]

Yeah I agree but the drumline shouldn't over haul the brass

[@lukeleslie8322]

for real, the drumline and front ensemble kicked ass for this show, it was def a nice change of pace

[@rifledynamic3678]

ScallywagBeowulf comes back watch beneath the surface and is blown away that blue devils were 0.60 points Above them in Percussion

[@jfman0006]

*drum corps*

[@DisDatK9]

What is band

[@livingbass9617]

Joe Jaxson Crown tunes to 442 Hz instead of 440 to account for the effects of heat on intonation. You’re hearing correctly, but they do it intentionally. It’s one of many reasons why they sound the way they do.

[@jesuspectre9883]

3:53 This is where the bottom drops out, visually. When the audience realizes there's no story, no pattern, no through line, no central focus, no thematic argument.

[@anthonyhalstead3925]

thats how their show has been the last two years... I think they are trying to win without telling a good story and just focus on the music. Last years show was like how much can we stray away from the generic dci shows and make our own.

[@jesuspectre9883]

That's like saying we wanted to produce a million dollar film, but there's no pattern, no main character, no story-- a complete new take on film. (In the background, you see the producer sneaking away with a bag of money.) Or like saying, we're holding a dance concert but it doesn't have a title and it's not about anything. Or like saying we produced an opera, but the curtain never goes up, it's all behind the curtain. That's practically 501c3 fraud. Even Dance Moms has a thematic argument, for Krapp's sake.

[@jesuspectre9883]

You're so fucking dumb. We're way past that story bullshit. Concept shows are welcome. But this wasn't a concept. It was a half-baked crackpot souffle that sickened everyone in the school. You need at least one of these. Pick fucking one!: -1) Story- 2) Pattern 3) Throughline 4) Central focus 5) Bookends 6) Game (a recurring irony that escalates for dramatic effect)

[@isaactrent6947]

@@jesuspectre9883 it's the same as if you had a company that wanted yo create an action movie that doesn't let plot get in the way. And to do so they just create a really well done syfy robot tournament and that's all it is! Audience loves the action, no need for 900 page script

[@jesuspectre9883]

@@isaactrent6947 This is actually a brilliant statement, and I support it, in part. I believe, underneath it all, that any one element in a show can redeem it and exalt it to the status of the universal, and make the whole thing make sense. Any one aspect of a show can pull it all together and elevate it to high art. But in this show, even the brilliant horn book and playing could not elevate this steaming piece of crap with undigested corn kernels in it. It had no meaning, no relevance, no resonance for the audience. It had no arc, no relatable character, no ending. Sorry. Yes. But not in this case. There was no "action." No redeeming quality or central focus.
