Can't figure out how the mic issue had no affect.  If a corps receives more points because electronics/amplification enhance something, shouldn't they be penalized if it goes the other way?  

I do agree that questions need to be answered.

How do you know it had no effect?  Did the judges release a statement?  Crown received no perfect scores.  And one of the music GE judges put them 5th.

If you think the corps this week didn't show "true ability" you're a moron.

Thanks. Oh and I'm glad for your reading of my entire comment. You were able to find two words out of the whole statement and take issue. Capital.

I have no idea what the original poster was referring to as the "misogynistic" drum corps show. You'd have to ask him/her. Given the weirdness of the accusation, I just thought it would be fun to throw out random possibilities :) 

He's talking about the Cavies. He's a Bloo fan who's upset about Cavies overtaking them.

The defending champion may exercise the option of going on last.  BLOO didn't use that rule to their advantage.

Can't you see how anti-climatic that would have been.

Just read through the last several pages of comments. FWIW, this was an excellent finals inside LOS. Slightly disappointed there was only one surprise. But all the corps performed the heck out of their shows. The crowd was great for everyone, starting standing Os well before last notes were played.

There is great variety in the top 12. Which is maybe one reason there's diversity of opinions about who is better than whom.

Loved seeing Cavaliers take 4th. Both because I'm a fan and because - easy to say in hindsight - I really thought the Bluecoats show was a little sloppy. Hugely entertaining - maybe my favorite ballad of the 12 - just sloppy. Smarter people than me can evaluate things better.

Can we all come to agreement with season going by so quickly? Seems like yesterday we were just getting show announcements.
