Diamond Cutter... The perfect and classic example is Cavies 2000 "Niagara Falls".

 

It's at the very end of the show, where they have the GIANT corp diamond, then it rotates in 4 smaller diamonds, then a bunch of even smaller diamonds. It's insane, but I love it.

 

Edit: fixed year.

Circle Of Death:

First coined during L.D. Bell's 2002 show, Binary Systems. On the left side of the field, you see two large circles of woodwinds. The woodwinds then run around in the circles in follow-the-leader fashion, while playing. Each one is called a Circle Of Death because falling during the set or even failing to start/stop the set at the proper time could result in fatal injury.

It was the ENTIRE band (excluding drumline and tubas).

Ahhh, good point. The brass sounded so clear that I didn't think they were moving!
