kdaddy, yes! Going to Broken Arrow show tomorrow night? You? Didn't I run into you in the Minneopolis chat room?

Will do Kevin. I'm taking a friend who has never been to a competition before. His only experience has been playing tuba way back when he was in a little high school.

This is the first year for the show. Please come show your support!

"The INT", or "INT". Hmmm

Here are some links that I've come up with for some of BD's musical selections.

I loved Crown's show the most. I hope they win. It was breathtakingly beautiful.

"INT yell" is exactly 4:15 into their show!

Thanks for pointing that out! The schedule should read: 3:12p INT C 5:11p INT B 7:42p INT

I can't wait for INT's show tonight. I hear they have a killer diller closer they will premiere.

I love INT. They have a consistent program. Sometimes I am left scratching my head at the end of their show wondering if I "got it".

Tell them to wait! INT isn't off the field yet!

Yikes. Perhaps those young people learned that in the real world you can lose your job for posting inappropriate things online.

Wow. INT was more Dada than BD. Heavy!

It shows that God loves us. That and beer.

Was that the judge walking around when BK had the firebird formation appear and stop? Very distracting judge!

Thank you Randy. We are awesome. We rock! Whoo hoo

Me too! Good job PC.

You can thank me. During the second corp they were showing the end zone while the corp was in between the 30's. I went to the support chat to have them pass a message to the camera crew to ZOOM. Please, hold your applause, cash expressions of your appreciation are fine.

I do appreciate minimalism, but INT's show is a tad too minimalistic.

I thought it was the same mellophone girl from the '80s. It was messing with my mind!

Thx Contra94. Here is a link to the story http://www.drumcorpsplanet.com/forums/index.php/topic/148087-revolution-erupts/

I did a search but couldn't find it, but wasn't there a corp that supposedly ran out of money while on the road and the members were abandoned and had to find their own transportation home? But then I think I remember a staff member writing that it didn't exactly happen that way.

Thanks for the heads up. I just ordered it. 1993 was a very good year. The DVD is marked down to $28, but even with picking the lowest priced shipping, the shipping and handling was $13. That is a 46% markup on the cost of the DVD. Surely DCI can do better than that. I can't afford almost a third (32%) of my total order going down the drain.

I just found a finals day runthrough video online of Santa Clara's 2009 "Ballet for Martha". The chord near the end is 15 seconds. I saw it live in Arkansas and it had me near tears.
