Totally Not The BlueCoats @ NightBeat 2023

[@foosington]

your camerawork is unmatched to that of flos clown fest

[@ignbqsil]

13:19 ayo turn that trombone gliss up ⁉️⁉️🗣️🗣️

[@alexjones5282]

That Bump section is getting so GOOD

[@Iliketordles]

eh...I preferred the way it was arranged before. It sounds too square now.

[@theevil_Dem0n]

I felt it through my body

[@BaldMartin420]

I feel like the Trombone/Trumpet duo at the end adds even more liveliness to the show and more energy. Yeah the Trumpet feature was amazing at the end of the previous shows, but the technique and style that the t-bone player brought to the table is just too good to pass up.

[@Toyshopslaps]

This camera work is good enough to be given tickets to finals so he can record it for us people that have to work on that day hahahahaa. Great work bruh

[@CJHissle]

Appreciate the love bruh💪🏿

[@nigelbrinklow8011]

Just gets better and better 🙌

[@ceh7676]

bloo 22' is my favorite show in dci but that bump section is gonna win me over if they keep making these wonderful changes

[@MrLegendary09099]

Y'all... I'm speechless 😭 I tried to go to Nightbeat with my band friends but everyone went without me because I wasn't notified about this DCI weekend. ONLY if I went to my settings and turned on my Slack notifications 😢 I very much appreciate y'all recording this as a memory to forgive. This recording made me cry 😭

[@iridium4088]

Bluecoats try not to add voice lines in your show challenge 99.99% impossible

[@catcat1517]

That horn ballad at 8:18 is pure magic. ❤

[@brstoffel]

Great job, Bloo! I like the music changes and the change in the closer drill. The show has improved a lot since the season opener. Well done!!

[@jsryan]

is that roger on the the left?

[@MrJeffro97]

Don’t get me wrong: I enjoy this show a lot, and it’s grown on me. That being said, bring back the mid-10’s style of Bluecoats. That’s stuff just HIT different. This is probably the first show from Bloo I’ve liked since then, but it’s not like what I know they can be like.

[@gibester8693]

Closer is so amazing now

[@bdfan4ever]

Absolutely!!! From BUMP to the closer I can’t get ENOUGH!!!

[@DefineTheProblem]

damn this camera quality is amazing! what camera do you have there?

[@CJHissle]

Appreciate it! I used my phone which is a iPhone 12 Pro Max

[@YuyuTutub-z5i]

The ballad hit is fell weird but really awesome. Feels like mono sound to stereo

[@jordantyler148]

They need the first part to be softer for the volume increase to be more impactful imo

[@WeMissDimebag]

Well it sounds like they’re already doing that; laying off the beginning so that those trumpet lines really smack you in the face. I like it but they’re still short on oomph imo.

[@jordantyler148]

@@WeMissDimebag yeah it used to start loud and than it was quiet just before the trunpet lines, than loud till the end. now its quiet from the beginning until the trumpet lines, im just saying it needs to be softer at the beginning.

[@dfa3366]

It's a nice show. They do things well. But I want the old Coats.....the Tilt show or Downside Up that brought the house down. In your face aggressive Bluecoats.

[@Slothulous]

Exactly. The reason we started loving them. This new age stuff doesn’t feel like bloo

[@isekai_neo]

@@Slothulouslast years was better in my opinion I feel like this show is just very passive

[@WeMissDimebag]

I wouldn’t call it passive but it’s definitely a much smaller feeling show. Last year was a big ass rock show with dance music. This year they’re doing a lot of intricate, atmospheric things. Does not have the same massive energy moments that are characteristic of the corps. They’re getting closer tho, I think.

[@bdfan4ever]

Falling in love with this show.

[@mel-px7hl]

They took out the mello lick in the opener 😭

[@WeMissDimebag]

Which one? Sounds like they added a lot extra to the mello book to me

[@mel-px7hl]

@@WeMissDimebag there was one right before the opening hit that mirrored one of the piccolo soloist’s runs, but harmonized

[@johnnymitchellcollier]

i'm sad they did too but i also kind of like what they replaced it with

[@WeMissDimebag]

Oh, I must not have noticed cause you can barely hear the piccolo now. Gotten harder and harder to hear as they’ve added stuff. Regardless it sounds like the run they replaced it with is harder, so that’s good.

[@kotlingoddess]

That's my favorite mello lick of the season, now it's gone 😭😭

[@chadtarver3301]

The exposed part with just the Hornline in the ballad.. what is that toward the end? Is it the synth? I feel like it’s overbearing and completely ruins an amazing moment.

[@abrahammughal7313]

That's the mic'd flugelhorn soloist

[@iridium4088]

Its a harmonizer on attached to the flugelgorn

[@Aj.oh7]

Trombonist falls at 10:27 but recovers pretty good

[@iandolan_]

that's a rough fall lmao, rip ankles

[@AidnChesner]

Bluecoats are madlads, they saw him fall over and then like two others mimicked him to try and cover up from what ive seen 😭😭👏👏

[@ChaseBariEuph1]

I just fell lol

[@AidnChesner]

@@ChaseBariEuph1 YOOOOO I DIDNT THINK YOUD ACTUALLY RESPOND WHAT. 😭😭 bump sounds great and im so hyped to see you guys in finals on the tenth

[@Aj.oh7]

@@ChaseBariEuph1 happens to the best of us

[@marchingband_videos1866]

Poor dude in the trombone 10:27 he slipped 😭

[@traywin]

he actually does that everytime lol

[@Riftal]

I was here last night, it was an amazinggg show

[@Jordan101x]

kind of wish they didnt make the voiceover so much more noticable in Bump tbh. all the other changes work tho.

[@mutantpugs]

Man they need remove that guy voice samples throughout the entirety of part, goddamn it sounds so bad and takes away from the actual playing from the members. Would not be sad to see it be completely removed

[@WeMissDimebag]

That narration is from the source material, the Garden of Love, both the poem and the music they’re pulling from. Even the looping and distorted parts. It has to stay but they need to do a better job of watching it’s volume next to the musical beats.

[@plainwelltoad]

Yeah. I don't love it (it's at least a little less intrusive than last year's), but it aunt going anywhere. It's in the source material, as others pointed our. But, yeah. I do think the changes they've made to it have made it better. And overall I still think it works for the show. (And I really like the show!!)

[@WeMissDimebag]

The samples are unfortunately also in the source material. As long as they use it to transition from moment to moment I think it’s fine, and there is some neat points where it interacts with the music. It’s really just a volume issue.

[@ilikechicken5524]

It's literally what the show is based on. It's the Garden of Love

[@drummersnare6276]

Is that who I think it is in the black tank top on the left

[@warobinson]

12:29 - Whyyy? 😯

[@Snaresloth]

I liked the trumpet feature better

[@jsryan]

i mean its a safe play, ig they would rather have it clean and easy than hard and dirty

[@warobinson]

@@jsryan You’re right. But still.. “what if”.. Every season of every corps has a what if section in their show. Something gets cut, something changes, or just it’s simply not possible to do what was originally intended. Even if the general audience doesn’t see it, we see it. The designers made the right decision, but that doesn’t eliminate (for those that know) the awesomeness that came before the “better for the show” changes. I’ll forever think “those designers made the wrong decision by cutting that trumpet run” - and that’s okay! 🙃 Bloo 13 had a completely different ending for about 3 hours before the designers made (correctly) the choice to cut it. “Oh what a world” - Rufus Wainwright. The members would sit on the bleachers and play sitting down as the rest of the corps pushed the bleachers off the field. The ending was meant to be much more thought provoking, yet we cut it for the betterment of the show. I still think about it all the time - What if..

[@CW-em1cl]

Snoozefest

[@Ace_v120]

talking about the blue devils?

[@michaelashley9535]

Blue devils are just better overall. Just my two cents. Cool show tho.

[@Flubdrum07]

*cough cough* park and play
