Marvelous Minnesota, July 8

Vanguard's hornline is not to be messed with. That group comes out firing all cylinders.

It's about F-ing time that Vanguard gets rewarded for GE. That show is pure GE.

That's right!

This is the one time this year that I go with the crowd and don't put SCV first, and then boom!  The judges deem them first!

Very nice for them!  There is just moment after moment of GE in their show.

I'm sorry, but Crossmen losing brass and music analysis achievement to Phantom Regiment is absolutely criminal and wrong.  

I want to like Corpsmen, but I would have had PR up in most captions. Crossmen just put me to sleep this year. Thirty minutes after their show has started, just before their closer begins, I think I could go make a baked Alaska and then come back to hear the final strains of their show and not miss anything.

As someone who came is age in the 70s, I will say drum corps is better when SVC competes for championships.

I agree - when I marched in the late 80s they were the epitome of class. Champions in both victory and defeat. I love them as much as the corps I marched with and always have.

I know, but on a fundamental level Crossmens brass is WAY ahead in terms of achievement.

And SCV's GE issues have been greatly exaggerated. 

I will gladly rescind all my GE skepticism. It has been an issue in the past, and seemed to continue on that trend so far this season.

And I feel the same about Regiment this year. More of the same. Not evolving. I don't understand them beating Crossmen or Blue Stars tonight.
