Northern Lights 2006

Northern Lights 2006
In memory of John Lennon

[@volpeastuto]

I was a junior in high school, and I remember being there in person. I was fairly obsessed with Northern Lights, like a lot of others there. I bought a shirt at their merch area and got every single member to sign it. I still have it and it’s one of my favourite keepsakes. I just watched it all over again. I still remember the audience being completely enthralled and captivated during the performance. Magical ❤️

[@AllStater09]

I don't think the guard even knew how much of an impact this program would be. It's 2013 and its still one of the best wgi performances!

[@bpet7138]

2017 and still true

[@spongebob03]

Abraham Moreno 2019?

[@karenk5284]

And now here we all are in 2020 as COVID-19 spreads through-out the world. If we normalize by 2021, this is a fantastic show for someone to bring back to the arena. Be well, everyone...stay strong!

Such an honor to get to have seen this show live several times throughout the season... One of my all time favorites.

[@b95632]

Never got to see them in person, but always loved this group so much and was so jelly when my instructor had a signed rifle by this guard

[@emmaoakes3511]

Still love this show. Every time I'm having a bad day I just watch this video and it makes my day!

[@jasminek6191]

Its beautiful. I love guard.

[@aenyxx]

I was in percussion this year, but this was the only show that year that amazed me.

[@clairefrye3106]

This show gave me chills.. Absolutely amazing

[@bigWordsHurt47]

Hey Vanessa! Have fun doing the whole WGI thing this year and good luck! Thanks for posting this, I feel like a legend!

[@vanessajakubowski6676]

anytime dale ;) btw you are a celebrity haha

[@virginiacorvello5553]

You really are! This is still always my favorite show! I remember being there for this performance! I definitely miss the winter guard life! Can’t believe it’s been about 13 years since I’ve done guard!

[@FuriedHearts]

The constant cheering during the dance passages around 3:26 is OBNOXIOUS. You do not have to scream after every single unison move

[@alexadalpedri7094]

The bigger question is... WHO THE HELL GOT FIRST IN 2006? WHAT. HOW DID THIS NOT WIN?!

[@akdonovan89]

Fantasia was 1st place that year. I think Pride of Cincinnati was 2nd. I was there, it was all so close. I have a special place in my heart for Northern Lights, though. They were my favorite!

[@chrisl83]

+Amanda Donovan Fantasia's was also amazing. But probably my least favorite Pride show, and I felt it should've beaten it.

[@israelflores7279]

The really flexible guy is officially bae.

[@noahrice3169]

I've never seen an all guy guard

[@guarddiva79]

Noah Rice I believe this was actually their last season before they folded. I too had never seen an all guy guard at the time and I was so blown away when I saw this guard live. They were absolutely amazing to watch.

[@akdonovan89]

Correct, they did fold the year after. They were wonderful. My high school guard loved them. We got to sit through their practice of their show the year before. It was certainly something to remember! I was so sad to hear they broke up after this show. We were there for worlds that year, we're on the left in the audience :)

[@thatsadoutsider]

I heard John Lennon and I was interested

[@danielschrijver4879]

This is also a awesome show of Northern Light WG, but does anyone have the Northern Lights World Winterguard 2004 show - Road to Perdition, Unfortunally the group doesn't compete anymore, very sad

[@johnhazel3551]

How did this medal? They are a mess under those saber tosses

[@katoo1015]

What are the songs name in the first half?

[@StefMcRainBoW]

what's the first half song called?

[@bigWordsHurt47]

BTW that was before you got your gold

[@vanessajakubowski6676]

obviously:P

[@ms-mo8hl]

I just dont get what the crowd was screaming for. They fall to or slap the ground and they yell. Were they all drunk

[@AdaylnTheLifeOf]

They cheer for catches, tricks or impactful choreography (like the fouettés in the beginning, the synchronized slap). Pretty typical for guard (and dance as well)

[@cadmiumyellow2736]

Can someone tell me why this performance is kinda of famous?? I mean they're good but I just wanna know the context I guess

[@aaronnaese1019]

Northern lights cannabis indica

[@rplee97]

what happen to this guard ..they dont exist no more why is that

[@chadtarver3301]

Funding, I think. Staff had other projects going on. I think.

[@lanceboggs3837]

Funding and the director was embezzling money from the bingo hall they had so they folded
