84BDsop

Yep...the echo chamber that was the venue was bad even on audio. Fortunately for SCV, the tear was after the gun, so no negative score impact

It wasn't just the tic that changed....it was also judged timing. Starting in 1984, shows were judged in their entirety....no more saving the riskiest stuff for after the 11:30 mark. No more dropping a rifle and not having it affect the score (80 BD). No more ensemble tear of the gods not affecting the score (82 SCV) Now judging from beginning to end. This also led to the end of every corps repeating large chunks of the prior year (much easier to clean when you already knew it)...83 BD was 3/5th of the 82 show....and the repeated charts were in the same places. 84 was the first year BD did not repeat at least one chart from the prior year (not counting the NY Fantasy tag ending). By 88 -- I think -- you rarely saw corps repeating charts in successive years as a matter of course.

Perhaps....Crown and Bloo only have 1 each, tho....

Agreed....I definitely see a title in their future.

Co-designed with music producer Jame Mason...OUR James Mason?? Star's director??

Came up on Facebook...was the Scottish snare in Musica Bohemia on a kevlar or mylar head? I believe pipe bands used kevlars before DCI did, but am not sure about 84 SCV,

*sigh* As has been said NUMEROUS TIMES over the YEARS this has been going on, they are NOT all full timers. They drift in and out a the season progresses. You might see 2 plate techs if their schedules overlap, but for the most part they are NOT all there at the same time.

Where's my ring, then??

And 2am....and 5am....and 10am...and...

For once, you and I agree on something.

Mmmmyyyy ppppprreeeciiiooooouuuusssss........

Nope...I just remembered it. Stop being so dismissive of people outside the activity getting into it.

Nice to see you're consistent....you had much the same reaction to Courtney a coupe of years ago. I mean, God FORBID someone outside our activity watches, appreaciates it, and publicises that fact. FFS.

Just came across this one....unfortunately, I don;t speak Portuguese, and the auto translate is off, but still...

And almost every other corps would kill to have BD "down" year.
