Haha, people take band trips to dallas? Thats so weird, what do you people do here? Other than Six flags( which technically is in Arlington) theres not a whole lot to do here. At least not with a large group. -

Its really hard to say he will be the "next great composer" since i already feel he is such a great composer. And theres many on the list of "greats" such as mozart, Weber, or debussy whos music i dont much like at all. Its all really based on opinion, in my opinion. -

"The Cadets creative team and staff have been working tirelessly putting the 2006 program together as move-in for spring training is now just one week away! We thought we'd let you in on many of the details of this year's production which takes the corps, and its fans, on a journey into the surreal world of "The Zone." Volume 2: Through the Looking Glass Join the Cadets as they return to the surrealistic world of "The Zone" where anything can happen and probably will. As the show begins with the song History Repeating by the Propellerheads sung by Cadets lead vocalist Amy Hernandez it will be obvious the Cadets are returning with a show that is both innovative and fun. The lyrics and groove from History Repeating are the perfect setting for the Return to the Zone. Chapter I begins with an arrangement of the 60's psychedelic rock classic White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane, where we meet Alice as she enters the 4th and final (?) dreamscape Wonderland. In Chapter 2 Alice enters the Garden of Wonderland. A psychedelic land where she meets a cast of whacky characters. The opening to The Garden is loosely based on music from the film score Pollock but quickly moves into original music by Cadet arrangers Jay Bocook, Tom Aungst and Neil Larrivee. An exciting piece of music that combines the power and excellence of the Cadets music ensemble with Jeff Sacktig's wild and fast paced drill. Cadets Color Guard headed by Jonathan Schwartz and Emma Roberts and the design team of Greg Lagola, Curtis Uhlemann, and Travis Estler III once again bring innovation and excellence to the field. Chapter III shows off Cadets powerhouse Percussion ensemble in The Mad Tea Party. This arrangement is based on more of the innovative electronica/acid-house music by The Propellerheads. This Dance/Party section of the program revolves around the further antics of Alice and her new found friends from Wonderland. Great beats integrated with trippy voice and plenty of sound effects combine to make this a Cadet classic. The ballad "I Am Your Shadow" comes from music by singer Lisa Gerrard. It is a haunting melody which will explore the combination of voice with the lush sounds of the Cadet Brass line and Front Ensemble. Alice now begins to understand that she may not be who she thinks she is and that Wonderland may not be real at all! In the final chapter Alice gets trapped in the maze as she tries to find her way out of the Zone. The music Diaspora Dances comes from the 3rd section of Leonard Bernstein's final major orchestral work Concerto for Orchestra "Jubilee Games. Bernstein's characteristic jazzy milieu with its rhythmic game-playing and street-wise tones is the perfect ending to Cadets 2006 production of Volume 2: Through The Looking-Glass. Prologue History Repeating: Revisiting the Zone History Repeating - The Propellerheads Chapter I Wonderland: We meet Alice White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane Chapter II The Garden: Alice meets some Characters The Garden - Bocook, Aungst, Larrivee Chapter III The Mad Tea Party: The Adventure continues! Music from the Propellerheads - Aungst, Larrivee Chapter IV I Am You Shadow: Things are not what they seem. Sanvean: I Am Your Shadow - Lisa Gerrard, Andrew Claxton Chapter V The Maze: Gotta get out! Diaspora Dances from Concerto for Orchestra- Leonard Bernstein" I am probably going to love this show.

QUOTE (sax5warrior @ May 11 2006, 09:07 PM) 360 pwns XD Caja X 360! While your waiting to play Halo 3 in 07 and any lesser games that come out until then, ill be playing the latest smash bros, and zelda, and mario, and metroid, and all the other innovative stuff nintendo comes up with. Sorry that sounds a bit harsh but thats how i feel about the 360. and check out this article on the ps3. "LOS ANGELES--It seems Sony might have surprised its developers with the announcement of a tilt-sensitive PlayStation 3 controller almost as much as it surprised gamers. In the latest installment of his Electronic Entertainment Expo blog, Seth Schiesel of The New York Times talks about the changing face of the event and his impressions of the lineups on display from Nintendo and Sony. Though it's buried near the bottom of the entry, the following excerpt from the article is sure to raise more than a few eyebrows: Set in a science-fiction war zone, Warhawk is the first game to make public use of Sony's own kinetic controller, which mimics the Wii device. Unfortunately for Sony, the admission by one of the Warhawk developers that his team got its hands on the new controller less than two weeks ago reinforced the impression that Sony only added motion-sensitive technology at the last minute in a hasty attempt to match Nintendo. Representatives from Sony didn't return requests for comment on the report." That made me laugh^

Thank you! its about time someone answered this question -
Wow, i was expecting N-Gage to get most of the voted here!

Not sure if anyone on here is keeping up with the news on E3 this year, or if anyone on here even plays games. I voted Nintendo. A lot of people were kinda skeptical about the Revolution (Wii) at first, but i think after seeing what it could do it actually surprised a lot of people.

^That same thing happened with our crowd. I could't help but chuckle once or twice, it being the first time id seen or heard the show, but everyone else was downright rude. We also had people talking and laughing the almost the whole time during the 70's and to an extent in the 80's shows. -
