2017-18 Shocker Dance Team Announced

[1972Shocker]

35 young ladies competed for 16 spots on the Shocker Dance Team.

I think this thread compares favorably to the "Offseason Banter" thread.

I predict they will hold their own in the AAC.

I wish the pep band would do a studio grade recording, instead of the "capture" on a digital recorder in a not so great room, as heard there. Perhaps I need to see how much it would cost to do that next season with WSU Audio Productions, and either foot the bill myself, or see if some of my fellow band alums would help out. We used to do a studio grade recording every two years back when I was in school.

When does the season begin so I can appreciate these young ladies?

Thank you. @ShockBand:, if it requires a donation, please reach out to me. I'd love to help. I've been wanting this for years.

Yes, have some

I have no idea what your are writing about but if you can improve the quality of the sound I am all for it. Perhaps donations are possible from Shockernet to pay for this. I am willing to contribute.

This wouldn't do anything for sound at games themselves, as aside from bass guitar (if they are using one), the pep band in the arena is "unplugged". I just was cringing at the quality of the recording used in the dance team intro above, and cringed knowing we have the means on campus to make a recording that is of the quality of recording in a studio. And @WuDrWu:, thanks for your offer! I will inquire with the powers that be with WSU Bands this fall about donations to support a recording session. I don't know if the university's ASCAP/BMI license would allow them to offer the recording to the public as a sold item, or even for free, but that will be one of my questions as well. I am hoping at the very least the fight songs and chants can be released without issue, but I know the other music that is played from professional arrangers might have some licensing issues for release of recordings.

This conversation reminded me of the following thread; I always enjoy listening to this album... some good stuff.

When I watched that video and saw Kate S. come up on the screen she reached into my soul in a way I can't describe and I can't figure it out. She reminds of another individual who did the same thing. Her name is Christina Broccolini an actress and executive producer from Canada. They are my new inspirations and spiritual soul mates. I can not wait to see her cheer on our boys underneath those new Koch Arena lights.
