And that's it for the 2018 Innovations in Brass drum corps competition! My next LIVE from the Stands event will be this coming Monday, June 25th, at the Summer Music Games of Cincinnati in Mason, Ohio!

See you there!

It will be interesting to see how Crown percussion will fair as the season progress. It appears that it's not a fluke how they are scoring. Good for them.

Phantom beat Garfield in brass?  WOW!

I'm more 'buh' about the same thing in percussion.  

 

Edit to add:  Well, maybe not.  PR pit > Cadets pit  but Cadets battery >> PR battery.

Battery and pit may be an issue for Bloo this season, seems to me from YT vids that the tenors are the main issue, hopefully they clean up quickly and score high enough to keep them in the gold medal hunt.

I'm not sure. Bluecoats have quite a show IMO. But frankly all the corps have some much upside right now, hard to tell

The last 3-4 years Crown has found a way to make ground in GE from the premiere show to finals. I know last year Bluecoats beat Crown by around a point in GE and lost GE to them at finals. Now this isn't last year but can't rule it out yet.

I personally think this year will have a hell of a fight in the top 5 and I can't lock anyone into a certain spot yet like I've been able to in some years recently.

Bluecoats are going to have to fix their percussion issues, and fast. They have a decent shot at a medal, maybe even a gold one, but not with percussion scoring this low.

In the past few years percussion has kept Crown from atleast 1 more gold medal, maybe 2.

This makes me really happy. Phantom hasn't quite returned to the powerhouse of a hornline they were known for in the 90s and 2000s, but they sound so much better already this year 

Side note but I decided to purchase FloMarching for this summer, so im excited to be able to see these shows a ton
