MsCorps

They were not scheduled here they are back in the good state of WI playing bingo and taking pictures.

Just looked at the local radar and it appears that its fast moving thunderstorm. Don't hold your breath

No there was a rain delay in San Antonio last week! The corps couldn't get out of their buses and warm up! It was right before Spirit went on.

Mine is working now and now there is a rain delay! Number 2 for a dome performance this year...what's next!

me too! this happened last week when CA went down. I noticed they were having issues with Mike Boo's comments also. Maybe it's in Chicago and the home server. Time will tell

here we go again? shades of SA

Never mind it is working

I can't even get to the server

No I am on a Windows based machine not an Apple. My top shows file, edit, view, favs. tools , help but no tab advanced I am downloading the itunes program as we speak maybe then I will see the light...yes? maybe?

Is this assuming you are using an Apple machine?

I must be having a blonde moment or something but I went to itunes.com and I don't see and advanced menu anywhere..can you help

How and where do you find these?

I couldn't get it to work at my office, must be the antivirus or some corporate thing that my computer guy has done to protect my computers. I could get Mike Boos comment window and stills fine so I don't know what happened...or didn't happen. So oh darn I had to go home and leave the work for another day...like tomorrow. It works fine at home! Thanks for the tip on how to get full screen. It seems a tad blurry which is understandable.

Anyone still having issues? I can get Michael Boo and the stills but not the live stream

Anyone still having issues? I can get Michael Boo and the stills but not the live stream

It is giving me a black screen right now. I had sound and stills and some movement...must be having issues like last week...I hope not

So in your opinion do you think Spirit had enough to pass the Gmen?

Scores?

My thoughts also. Plus the Glassmen are wearing and playing like BK?? However it was nice to see some corps full shows that were part of the black out last night.

Go Bloo! It's up!

Then the argument for a backup plan would be a good idea for those who provide services outside of LA

My thought exactly! There's always next weekend..maybe

I remember starting a thread last year regarding the AOC/arc non retreat issue. I would prefer to hear AOC once again, not the newer version but the older version. It was more impressive. I hate the arc concept. I like the full retreats in your face sound, it leaves you with your heart a pumping. I do understand the concept that it allows the corps to leave earlier because they can pack up and go within 20 minutes of awards. The assigned concept does allow the fans to see other corps perform the "retreat" and that is cool. However, I think the two corps playing the so called retreat are too spread out across the field. Maybe a double arc or a two corps retreat style at the 40's would be more concentrated and in your face. I agree something needs to be done, let's start something at finals!

DCI) SPIRIT of America, Jacksonville, AL July 18, 2006 Place Corps Score DIVISION I 1 Phantom Regiment 87.750 2 Carolina Crown 83.850 3 Boston Crusaders 82.650 4 Spirit from JSU 80.200 5 Pioneer 65.750 Exhibition CorpsVets, Sr. Exh. Hot off the presses

I agree that there is no excuse to boo except in the case of a tie. I was elated that Phantom did so well. They are getting the umbrellas together. This is the first time I saw the Cadets and was prepared for something weird.....and they delivered. I am not sure I liked the show will wait to see it Foxboro again before I make a decision. I was shocked to see that SCV was not up to par for them. Their lines were awful. The crowd around me was also very disappointed with the lack of retreat. The Cadets and Cavies played well but was just not the same.
