    Their brass is so heavily underrated, I saw them in San Antonio and my god, did those trombones just hit me with their sound, and the Radiohead part was so fantastic live.

      Yeah I thought that was Radiohead. Isn’t the song called “exit music”?

      The mello book did it for me. Saw it in Denton and San Antonio, and the mello run during Exit Music just sent me over the edge.

    I waited 40 years to hear a corps do The Rite of Spring, and I was blown away when I saw this in Sacramento. They nailed it! I love BK because they frequently present experimental and outside music, and do it with tremendous style and execution, without a ton of positive feedback from the audience. That takes serious will and dedication.

    Damn. Seeing this live was phenomenal. A lot of people think that this show doesn't fit in with the rest of the 2014-2019 era, but I really feel it does. It has that same mystical touch to the music writing. The low brass was so husky and full that night. Definitely not a show I'll forget.

    • @chaoshuffer
      @chaoshuffer 5 років тому +38

      drumcorps0junkie Good question. Their execution has grown by leaps and bounds over the last decade or so, to the point where alongside Boston I think they’re the most improved corps of the last few years (Academy and Mandarins also deserve a nod there). IMO they really need some fresh, innovative show concepts to help them stand out like Bloo has been able to do since 2014. I mean, how many times have we heard Rite of Spring in DCI? The competition in the top 6-7 is so fierce these days that excellent playing almost goes without saying; more creativity and unique repertoire leading to a big GE score are what I think they need to capture a title. Still really enjoyed this show though.

      @@chaoshuffer What's truly amazing is you're talking about execution. Let's be honest. That's the only thing you're taught. Myopic drum corp alumnae and current marchers have been hypnotized to watch for only one thing. Execution. That's the only thing you're confident to talk about. Execution. Execution. Execution. Well, let me tell you, their low score has little to do with execution.
      They consistently lose because of their show concept.
      This year they promised us a show about Ra the Sun God. Where is he? Where's the serpent that tips Ra's sun boat, imperiling the universe? The epic battle between the serpent and Ra's sun boat? Come on. Let's see some action! A fucking huge serpent attacking a fucking boat, it tips over and the sun might not rise tomorrow!? Fuck! And all you give us little pyramids? Um. The Blue Knights need to step up with some high stakes imagery. They've cornered the market on uniqueness, great. But as soon as they up the ante with suspense, universality, cohesion, authenticity and high stakes emotion, they're number one.

    Man, I remember two years ago, my freshman year... This DCI group used my High School's field to practice on for a competition that would occur nearby later that night. We got an opportunity to listen to them practice, and I just absolutely hated how ugly it sounded to me at first. The only saving grace for me was the ballad back then. And here I am, 2 years later, watching the entire show, and enjoying all of the ugliness. I wish I wasn't so hard on this show in 2018.
