I want to love Carmel. I want to love Carmel. I want to love Carmel. BUT I am struggling this season. Maybe it's just me, but something just seems off.

I really enjoyed Bourbon County! However, I am still not sold on Carmel. The design, AT THE MOMENT (it's still early!), feels like a miss to me. It's definitely not the GE bomb-fest they've had the past couple years. Have to think this wasn't their best musical run, also. BUT...they could do exactly that on Nov 16 and win Visual. Like, their name might already be down on the retreat announcement sheet. *also, I'm so here for the Bourbon flugelhorn/horn duet in the ballad.

I only caught the ballad but it seemed rough for sure. Not really feeling the theme or the music but the pacing is typical Carmel. Not super enjoyable show .... idk I’d like another read tonight

North Hardin
Good: love the uniforms, nice drill, ensemble visual is a strength, music cleanliness
Eh: individual marching is still rough, sound feels very forced at big impact moments (not a lot of quality), we don’t ever need to hear “all by my self” on the football field ever again even if it is mixed with michael giachinos music from lost (see Carolina crown 2014)
It’s still early with a lot of time to clean really liked the show

North Hardin means business. I've been slow to consider them a legitimate contender, but they've got all the performance quality necessary. Design is meh, but those kids are for real.

I mean I know it SEEMS like Flo is based in Indianapolis but it’s actually based here in Austin, TX.

Random question. When watching the FLO live feeds do you prefer to watch the high cam or the multi cam?

Wow Franklin, when is your finalist appearance finally going to happen?? This is quite awesome.

Post by TeamIndiana on Sept 21, 2019 11:37:38 GMT -6
Loved North Hardin! This is easily their best designed show. Love it!
While Franklin's show is FUN, and has some great parts... it is too college marching band -esque for my liking. Not sure of the GN's potential.

Random question. When watching the FLO live feeds do you prefer to watch the high cam or the multi cam? Always High Cam. Multi-cam is the worst idea anyone has ever had for viewing purposes. It's neat for kids to get close-ups and all, but can't get a read on the full show.

It's neat for kids to get close-ups and all, but can't get a read on the full show. I like to watch a few shows on multi cam but only after I have seen their overall performance 3 or 4 times first. It’s fun to see the camera zoomed in on the soloists and special performers for a change once you have gotten a feel for the whole show.

And unlike DCI, the directors know nothing about the show so every time a pivotal moment happens they immediately zoom in on some random pit kid. No offense to random pit kids.

If I were a judge, Castle would win this show. But I guess that's why I'm not a judge

Castle. The music is great as usual! To me, overall design just isn’t there though. Similar to last year. I know they aren’t going to be at GN and to me it seems like the show was designed with that in mind. Recycled props and all.

Eh not really feeling it from Castle tbh. About the same as last year. Lasts years band was better but the show was so unrecoverable, this year it’s not quite as dramatic. Don’t get me wrong they play well and march pretty well but there is nothing that is screaming to me that they should be back in finals. Kind of a shame bc we know the talent / teaching is there

Not sure if I’d call that “random order” LOL
surprised franklin didn’t steal a caption from castle, they’re certainly vulnerable. I’m glad north Hardin didn’t earn visual, it was rough
