The changes to the ballad are so so good. Much more faithful to the source material and it flows so much better now.

I agree

Wow bump is ROUGH. I really hope they polish it because it is by far the coolest part of the show.

Never seen a comment as true as this one

Got some working on to do with Bump. Definetly one of the harder movements with the tempo modulation.

WOW! Love seeing the changes to an already awesome ballad. Can't wait to see what they do to spice up the ending for finals!

Same here, bluecoats have evolved their show wonderfully so far, cant wait to see what they do next!

I know the trombone feature is supposed to feel weird with the timing, but I've never heard phasing like this from bloo before. It's still my favorite show this season, and I can't wait to see it evolve further

Yeah they still feel a little hollow but I LOVE that he brings back the motif from the opener and the additional trombone solo to tradition is really nice too.

Best ballad since 2018, and they still need to wring out that interlude between the ballad and closer, good show either way

The ballad was saved. Holy hell this sounds lovely.

the zoom on this camera is heavenly

Thanks bro! I try my best to give you all quality content!

That tempo split at 10:15 progressively gets worse until 10:30. It sounds so chaotic. I would like to say it's because of the perspective, but I don't think thats the case as they are center audience. Hopefully they can get that super clean by finals

It's a metric modulation that happens on the upbeat so it's gonna sound weird

It phased in this performance, beyond intention of the piece. You can tell because the intensity of the hornline dropped. When it’s locked in, it’s really good!

listening back, it wasn’t as clean as it could’ve been, but alas… it’s gonna sound weird because of the nature of the source material/arrangement

Not loving the changes to Bump. I thought trumpets were doing that pretty well, not sure why they made it easier and took out the articulate Cs, Ds, snd Es.

Might be an endurance thing. If you're adding a new closer in, which Bluecoats have a history of doing, it's probably good to look at places where the performers can get tired out and rework some stuff. I feel like they had issues with endurance in 2019, then added a closer that made things even worse, so hopefully this is just some forward thinking.

THEY CAME TO MY TOWN TODAY AND I WALKED ALL THE WAY OVER THERE TO GO SEE THEM AND I WAS RECORDING BUT MY PHONE RAN OUT OF STORAGE AND I WAS QUICKLY DELETING STUFF ON MY PHONE AND ACCIDENTALLY PERMANENTLY DELETED ONE OF THE 2 MINUTE VIDEOS I RECORDED OF THEM 😭😭😭😭

Why is the whole bump segment still super dirty?

Tell the poem once at the beginning and then shut that old man up! I came for drum corps.

Great camera work!

4:58 wheres the bari 1 part 😭

I didn't get to see their show at Murphreesborough bc they did exhibition but I did not like the audio at all, it was nice at the beginning but the remix of it throughout the show was a bit much and it sounded weird.

9:23 uh oh

I loved their use of vocals last year but this is just not it. Brass and perc sounding good tho

@JackSmithDrums

I think they are on to something in terms of story telling through vocals, but like you said, last years vocals told a story, this year, they are just repetitive, I wish they would change that up a bit, no hate though, love me some bloo!

I REALLY dislike how they're using amplification this year and last year. I'll never understand this much use of narration, especially when it competes with the performers. I've been a fan of their show designs for a long time, but their move towards so much narration is a big turnoff, IMO.

Bump needs help

Love the show, but the brass and battery uniforms are so washed out and look like camo--very frumpy in my opinion. Your website's nice graphic design work does not translate well to the field with those uniforms. Simplify the graphics on the uniforms--less is more Just an opinion from someone with 20+ years in the advertising agency business. Still, Bluecoats I love what you do!
