whitewing09 Posted November 14, 2006 Posted November 14, 2006 i love bells show!! i think them and the woodlands so got robbed! goshhh i wanna see it again Quote
I<3thebox Posted November 14, 2006 Posted November 14, 2006 haha wow.... We did a show once called Claustrophobia... I thought it would have been cool to have a free form moment and the band traps in the judges... and then some people stay there while the rest of the band continues the show. Then they wouldnt be able to judge MWUAHAHAHA... it was a nice thought Quote

fourmalleteer Posted November 14, 2006 Posted November 14, 2006 That sounds exciting, but scary if I were a judge. Quote
Skippy Posted November 14, 2006 Posted November 14, 2006 That was scary as heck man. I've been equally scared watching many horror movies. Just imagine those things slowly rising up. There were MANY screams of terror and gasps from the crowd. Unreal. Is this the biggest "flying tarp" in a marching band show? It's close, but I think it tops the flag in SCV's 1991 Miss Saigon show.

bossman Posted November 14, 2006 Posted November 14, 2006 I remember this year "BOA Houston" i had the opportunity to finally run into a judge. It was nice. I mean pure contact, plus he was standing directly in my spot with his back turned. One of my top moments EVER Quote
Hollister[co]Chic Posted November 14, 2006 Posted November 14, 2006 OMG...that is soooooo awesome! yall's show this year was out of this world....by far my favorite...just the idea of that makes me all tingly inside!! lol Quote

I was close to running one over this year @ BOA. Every1 in our show was marching in half time, then stopped, so he dropped his guard, and then we suddenly started marching in real time towards him, and he ran in between us. I'm surprised he wasn't killed lol. Quote

YOU JUST MADE MY DAY. holy crap. I want to see this show live so bad. Man. But I'll take a video too....ahhhhh...hurry out and distribute the dvds! Goodness. Don't they know we feed off of marching band videos? Quote
ClarinetGlissandoInBlue Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 is that a guard girl on top of the tarp??? dressed in all white also, one of our trombones almost hit one of the field judges with her slide at BOA houston. another judge almost got stuck in the middle of our form - would've been a disaster Quote
n3rdu5 Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 Yep, that little spot in the middle of the tarp is the guard girl. You can vaguely see her white outfit. The brown is her hair Quote
SpeshulEddie Posted November 15, 2006 Posted November 15, 2006 yeah, she emerges and dances around. it's cool i really wanna see the show again a 6th time for serious Quote

MmCheezItsYay Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 wait they sewed that whole thing?! Quote
Xenon Posted November 16, 2006 Author Posted November 16, 2006 You could tell that it was a whole bunch of smaller ones sewn together. Edit: If you saw it live that is. Quote

The whole band hall was white with it! However, I'm not sure exactly how many bolts it took but I'm sure I could find out. Quote
bossman Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 Man, thats crazy, i bet it took up a whole truck, maybe even a whole bus Quote
jbrih13 Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 L.D Bells show is OMG, my fav since our show 03'!!!! Last year at the end of our show (Wake from your sleep) we would run around like we were crazy or something, and then we fall and died at the end...some of my fellow band members (hahahaha ) would chase the judges around. Judges had no where go to cuz we were running everywhere and going mad and when we finally fell....they let out a sigh of relief...LMAO (they were scared...so funny; good time, good times ) Quote
