Watching the brass staff in the front rows going absolutely nuts because the hornline is untouchable and on fire. It is heart wrenching.

@RyanBoots Жыл бұрын

This was unquestionably the year that Crown had achieved something exceptionally rare in the activity: a signature brass sound, one where you could listen to a portion of their show and know who was performing based on nothing but the sound of the hornline. Very few corps really achieve it, but they all have one thing in common: they're all championship-caliber ensembles.

@colinkelly8393 3 жыл бұрын

What the hell? I had no idea that crown had a drumline that got second place. And they’re really good too. It took me awhile to get into this show but I like how unique it is. Nothing like I’ve ever seen.

@colinkelly8393 3 жыл бұрын

The reason I didn’t know this line was so good is because of the crown stereotype this past decade. “If only they had a drumline they could win more championships.” I did not like that they had that reputation. Luckily, their drumline might be close to their 2009 form soon.

What I love about it the most (and this may be a reflection of that time period in drum corps overall), is that it's the perfect blend of, in layman's terms, old school and new school. It has the exaggerated theatrics of the modern times, but there's also very little narration and absolutely no props for this. The music comes first, and this is just straight up good drum corps. A stellar performance, definitely one that never fails to disappoint.

@WolfgangXP65-67 2 жыл бұрын

Even though I really do love modern corps myself, I do put music first when writing my shows as well. I never even think of show designing because I am a composer who loves brass impacts and intense drum features lol 🤣.

⁠@@WolfgangXP65-67brass impacts and drum features are apart of show design!! You're just thinking of the modern theatrics that are commonplace now, but the music is absolutely and always has been part of the design. You just prefer to get the music sorted out before the visuals, or theme.

That shit was so good you can even see Lee Beddis throw his hands in the air and jump up and down between the podium and the stands. These finals recordings and this venue simply do not do this percussion ensemble justice. Legends

@@Mattyfear even if the FE isn't doing anything difficult, the judge still has to judge them too, you don't want to only judge the more demanding aspects of a corp. you have to sample all of what you can and sometimes that leads to unfortunate timing in what they sample.

Yeah the whole thing with 2010 is that it’s “A second chance” at winning. Tons of symbolism but they play several hits from 2009 and they have the same ending, with a few changes. Even the gradient color guard flags are the same despite being a different color. In 2010 tho, they both run off together instead of just the one in 2009.
