This is the only corps doing "retro" (mid 2000's to early 2010's) style show. And for that they won in my heart. They won it at my first show in July, when the soprano chord in a classic waterfall-effect was louder than every preceding corps...and half or more of the corps was yet to come in yet!
Don't get me wrong I'm with you...but they aren't. They prioritized loudness over all and the musicianship never caught up to the muscle. Allentown proved it. J Birney Crum Stadium puts each corps under a microscope (due to no back wall and being way set back, it's pure directional sound no masking)
@@paulblichmann2791 I understand exactly what you’re saying, and I do understand the nuance that makes a great brass line. But each person’s tastes are different. And what gives me the warm and fuzzies is having my hair-or lack thereof-blown back.
Thank you for sharing this. The song and SUTA mean more and more to me each year. Congratulations for the epic job pulled off by the instructors and staff this year. I believe that the artistry and grace and muscle and sheer grit you guys put on the field after early June saved the corps from oblivion. This will be remembered as one of the heroic years, like 78, or 87, or 96, or 2008, not because of your placement, but because of what you brought to the game. We are all truly amazed by you and proud of your achievement. SUTA!
