  1. Little known fact: Vanguard would have won Finals going away, had they not been penalized 1.0 by the Ukrainian judge for putting Kiev in Russia, and 1.0 by an old VFW judge for the drum major's hippie haircut. That is not true. BD was untouchable (and made Rod Goodhart say, 'OH ####!') Santa Clara was magic (figuratively and literally). Cavies continued their climb with wind band music. Garfield played Bernstein great (as usual) but decided to do weird guard. Suncoast, Spirit, Madison and Star all had amazing hornlines and unique takes on great music. Sky Ryders had brains, heart and courage. This was such an off-year for Phantom that no one has even put up a video of them. It was Troopers' last time in Finals in 23 years. Velvet Knights played a show that Cavaliers would do a pale knock-off of in 2004 (that's not true either). 27th Lancers played 'Move On,' then... moved on. šŸ˜ž Les Eclipses took the Semis crowd to Paris. Bluecoats were turning heads, Boston Crusaders was still not dying, and Dutch Boy was screaming. Tell us about 1986. 1.

  2. A helmet from the Gold medal 2016 show can be had for every $500 donation. Yes, it's double the cost BUT it is from the championship show!

  3. June 1, 2002, 11:08pm ET - Tour Day 9 Allentown, PA Things have been continuing, albeit a little slower. The entire opener of 41 pages is now on the field with music. Thereā€™s plenty of work to be done on it, but itā€™s still nice to have it out there. We should learn the ballad drill pretty quickly and then we have to tackle ā€œStrawberry Soup.ā€ My left knee is very sore on the back side. I may have a slight pull or something, but I think I can work through it. There are quite a few others with more serious injuries to deal with so Iā€™m not so bad off. Tomorrow we have a recording session for our preseason CD, but spring training move forward full steam ahead. (Next post is June 4.)

  4. Little known fact: VK had a time machine and was just copying White Sabers' 2019 show. (That also might not be true.)

  6. It was also the year Dagenham Crusaders won DCUK (ok....Conquest Alliance tied with us) wearing BD-style uniforms and playing "West Side Story"...oh, the irony for me. I remember calling from the UK (I was in the USAF and over there on temporary duty at the time...managed to march Dagenham because I had weekends off) to try and find scores back when there was a score line.

  8. Yes. So pared down, in fact, that I am not seeing how you access member safety/wellness initiatives, ethics guidelines, or code of conduct.

  13. Saw one or two DCI shows there too. Funniest part was my assistant High School band director was with Lancers while a buddy and I were with Westshoremen. We marched a year before we realized it. Think he never said anything because the head band director was retiring soon and didnā€™t want to hurt his chances by appearing to recruit for a corps
