perc2100 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I kind of love the fact that at this point in the season, fans aren't discussing if Madison will or won't make Finals, but how high they could potentially place. As a long-time (ish) drum corps fan, it's great to have Madison back!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dieselfume Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I haven't reviewed the entire thread so if this is a repeat posting, I apologize. However, the last time Madison beat the Cavaliers was at DCM ("Drum Corps Midwest" for the newbies) in 1995 in DeKalb, IL. Madison was in the second of its three matador shows and the Cavies had the "Planets" show which, ultimately, took first at DCI. Needless to say, it's been a long dry spell re: Madison v. Cavies. No knock on the Cavies but it's good to see Madison in the thick of things after having not made finals on a few occasions. Congrats to the management staff, the instructional staff and, mostly, to the lads of Madison Corps. Bravo!. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBadMadMan Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Maybe it was incorrect, but I read that the last time was July of '98. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaustianMachine Posted June 30, 2012 Author Share Posted June 30, 2012 Maybe it was incorrect, but I read that the last time was July of '98. Correct. July 5th, 1998 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dieselfume Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I stand corrected. Thank You. However, it was still last century. (I shouldn't go with memory at my age.) . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFZFAN Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I'm really looking forward to the first regional so we can see where all the corps actualy stack up against each other. Scouts are doing great so far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotorCityMusician Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 • Madison Scouts topped their Midwestern rival Cavaliers for the first time in more than a decade Friday, June 29. In Muncie, Ind., the Madison Scouts took second place with a 72.80 to the Cavaliers’ third-place score of 71.70. The last time the Scouts put up a higher score than the Green Machine was 14 years ago on July 5, 1998 in Michigan City, Ind., scoring 79.60 to the Cavaliers’ 79.40. The two corps will next meet on July 3 in Cedarburg, Wis.

NR_Ohiobando Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I like some of the changes. I wish they kept the brass trio at the start of the middle section though. Here's Muncie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's Muncie Agreed, I was waiting for that part and it never came. Ah well, the show is fantastic, and the crowd at Muncie anyway definitely loved every minute of it.
