The Cavaliers 2006 "Machine" performance tops it all!
I first saw this performance at a DCI Countdown theatre last year and was blown away. Now that the newest installment of the DCI Countdown is coming to a theater near you I thought I would post this before I forget it.
It is a very percussion-oriented show, and the drill is just impeccable. The show tells a story of machines and the world of automation: robots, metal and impersonal Borg-like beings (from Star Trek The Next Generation) who try to assimilate new sections of the corps (Invasion of the Body Snatchers-style) into their "collective" consciousness. Maybe I am reading too much into this since I am such a fan, but it was an awesome reminder of the Trek universe. The physical body-language, acting, and poses, especially the guard-work, were creative and
sharp. It all comes to a head at the end when the colorguard "robots" finally assimilate the last straggler: a snare drummer. But he gets the last word by playing the last note of the show.
