Absolutely love that Scott goes and shakes everyone's hand individually. The respect and gratitude for the hard work is a beautiful thing.

[@FBarnacle]

Couldn't agree more!

[@barrymonroy7138]

It's a legacy that continues on as well.

[@kevindukes3501]

Yall see the buses splitting lights behind them. CLEAN

[@salarmander27]

Love that trip accent paradiddle made it back to their warmup package

[@the.alexkim]

For sure paradiddles were missing from their packet before this

[@StevenReyesPercussion]

These bass licks are so TASTY.

[@Mattyfear]

For sure! BD has a thing for taking concepts that other corps introduced and either refining it or adding a touch of flare

[@buddah389]

This is a very efficient line, not a lot of flash just straight execution. Very reminiscent of the old BD lines imo.

[@barrymonroy7138]

Bottom bass nasty!! Diddles😮!!!

[@dennycrane2938]

All the throwbacks separated by mangle lol...

[@benjaminkenobi21]

I will be disappointed if Boston doesn’t beat these guys this year. I think Boston truly has a better battery (and did last year too), just not sure about their aux.

[@FBarnacle]

It'll be close for sure. BD drumset is doing metric modulation so that's gonna be sick. Haven't heard Boston's FE yet so look forward to that too.

@@escapethematrix4204 I doubt you speak for everybody saying "the only reason people want them to win....." I want Boston to win this year because in my opinion, they're playing book cleaner in early July... it has nothing to do with last year. I will admit that July playing doesn't matter in finals, and auxiliary plays a big part too, but I feel they're earning it more. How exactly is Boston's battery overrated relative to BD's battery this season..... what are examples of that?

[@benjaminkenobi21]

@@escapethematrix4204 I already said that’s not my reasoning for wanting them to win. You can’t make blanket statements about what everyone else’s reasoning is and achieve any kind of accuracy. On what bases are you evaluating BAC’s book being easier than BD’s? Just giving you a chance to elaborate on your position.

[@notlawproductions1055]

@@benjaminkenobi21 Haha. Bro… He LOST me when he SUBJECTIVELY gave his OPINION of BAC’s arrangement being simplistic. 😏 Ok… Let’s just say that BAC’s arrangement is simple. 🤔… Are they executing the material with great precision in the month of July? The answer is, yes they are.
Is the Blue Devils arrangement extremely demanding and difficult to execute?… For entertainment purposes, let’s just yes. Ok, cool. Now! Are they executing this arrangement at the moment?… ABSOLUTELY NOT. And…. It’s ok. Shoutout to all of the BD cast members, that’s waking up on a daily basis, and GRINDING in name of excellence. I don’t want to take away from the musicians/artists.
Colin McNutt and the Boston Crusaders percussion program, have been building for a few years now. So this is not some over night success story or groupie hype. They absolutely deserve to be mentioned for the whole work they put in within the past five years. So, let’s not minimize their progression to where they are today.
I definitely will piggyback off of a true statement that was made, which was. The Boston Crusaders front ensemble wasn’t as strong as the field battery last season. So if the front ensemble isn’t up to par this year, it will definitely hold the Bostic receivers back from potentially winning the Freddy.
