    • @billmccullough777
      @billmccullough777 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      It was not perfectly performed -- e.g. dropped stick, poor alignment on recovery moves. I really think the extras -- flag people and flashing lights -- were irrelevant to the performance (unless the drummers control the flashing of their drums). What's the next step? A dancing elephant? The bobbing feathers and the swordfight routines were pretty innovative!

    Having been in marching band when I was in high school, I DO have some idea of how much planning and practice is required to perform a complex, 10-minute long show, but I have to admit it was nothing as complex as this. I'd LOVE to see a composite video of how TS plans, practices, and produces one of their shows. Can't even imagine the audition one would have to go through to even get a shot at being on the team. And I'll bet, once on the team, you GLADLY practice millions of hours to STAY on the team. Congrats to all of you on the dedication it takes. We can see it in the results.

      I looked in his description and he thought the costumes were lame and I thought they were fabulous because they were musketeers and fit perfectly with the story and they looked great. Besides, the dark blue and white contrast made easy to see the contrast of the movements.

      I took my son and his best friend to the Southeast Drum Corps International Competition in Atlanta, GA. They worked the competition for DCI and we were asked by one of the Drum corps if we would like to see what it’s like being on the road performing and practicing and living a highly disciplined life at these Pre Competition facilities. They slept in a high school gymnasium and used their football/practice fields for practice and training. My Army basic training was easier than their training. They are seriously dedicated individuals.

    To all of you haters out there, just think of how hard it is to play a 16th, 32nd, and triplet pattern. Now imagine doing that while walking in precise patterns to within 3 inches. Now imagine that you are counting time while you are doing all of this and there is a deafening noise all around you.
    I'd like to see you try and do this good.
