Low brass kicks ass

That sound makes me cry tears of joy. Being a trombone player, I literally lost my shi*t when I heard that tease on facebook

No doubt! I'm very anxious obviously to hear what BD, Vanguard and Bloo are playing too but heading lots of exciting things from Boston!

I searched for the music on YouTube .. Crown's arrangements have not been recorded and released as far as I know but someone made a group of videos of their musical selections if you want to get an idea of what their show "Beast" will sound like.

How about the Cavies? "On madness and creativity". Sounds like a pretty intriguing show.. I'm interested to see how they turn out after that bloo upset last year

It does look interesting. I thought they robbed Bloo honestly and only 2 judges really disagree with me lol take those out and we wouldn't be asking, but I think that 4th place is going to be the peak for them, we will see.

I'm personally a big cavies fan because we have a snare player from white sabers there. The whole corps cheers for cavies now lol. Plus we had an instructor who marched bloo in 2016 and he kinda turned into a jerk with a massive ego. So needless to say we teased him about last year's outcome

In fact, before the baritone feature in our opener last year, we shouted (in time) 5th! Place! Blue! Coats!

Please note that this was beFORE they even got upset lol. We called it.

Blue Devils announced and all I could think was, another "artist" show. They rehash this theme every few years with a different story.... yawn. Though i'm sure it will be good and probably win again
