Here is one that might stir up some controversy:
Among the "Multi-finalists" (defined 5+) of DCI's "Classic" era (defined 1972 - 80), which corps contributed the LEAST toward overall growth and creative innovation in our activity, during that era?
That is, maybe "played it safe".
Consider advancement in all aspects -- design, teaching, performance, and administration. Brass, Percussion, Visual (drill, guard, body movement etc.), management, equipment inventions and the like.
I have always had a firm idea (hint: The group continues today), even going way back to my thoughts during this actual era.
