Have you seen the psychos on there? I permanently deleted my Facebook and deactivated Twitter last Thursday. And I’m presenting asking myself why I’m posting here. I think I should probably follow suit here. Adios.
Thanks for the drive by Terri. Be safe in your hibernation and hopefully we'll "see" you in the Spring.

Yes, yes I do. Especially considering Crown only finished 0.037 points behind SCV overall, which is basically a grain of sand, in which any small change could have affected the score and moved Crown ahead.
I'd say you're right since I based my thoughts on a difference of over a point. For some old fart reason, I used the final results for Cavies and CC.

Thanks boxingfred.

I think with a different prop design, they could have placed higher, but sadly that (and the guard writing to the underlying melody, because the guard executed what they were given very well) held them back.
4th. SCV 96.5625
5th. CC 95.400
If the guard executed very well, do you feel better prop designs would have moved CC up 1.626?

Man...Academy. Drum Corpse Bride was seriously lightning in a bottle. The Danse, the xylobones, the uniforms, the gravestones, the closer! And most of all the relationship they'd built with the crowd through the season as they made finals for the first time with what was seriously a crowd favorite.
First time at the Oil Can was 2015 and first time I really saw The Academy. Their ballad that year, with the field percussion also with double flags, really impressed me. May they get their 2016 mojo back again.

Others who were there and may be closer to the Cadets, will give the story behind the story. The Reader's Digest version is, GH wanted the hash marks re done, I believe there was a delay, and the crowd let him know it.

Does smoke coming out of my ears count?
No, but smoke gets in your eyes does.

A.How do you prove someone is a smoker ?
Don't advertise this, but once they are close to the front of the line, have them show their pack. If it's "in the car/truck", have an admin person go with them to their vehicle. If they have an un opened pack, ask them to join that admin person for a smoke break outside. Check their teeth. Use a K9(s) dog for a training session.

Not sure who would do it best... but it would be an incredible challenge for any corps:
How did these corps do with it?

Cavies are considering using these type movements in their drill this year. They're just hoping Crown doesn't beat them to it. Masks might still be needed.

I'm into music/performances like this. Loved how the musicians were pumped up after this fantastic performance. The BD, SCV, and CAV played bits of this piece in recent years.

For a potential parent like me, I think that could be interesting for a one-off kind of year. Not sure how the general fan would perceive it.
However DCI puts this together, if there will be a "champion", I for one would not be all excited. Maybe an asterisk to show that not all corps participated. I know, I know. In order to compete, you have to show up, but let's be real. DCP would have fun if there was a competition without several of the heavyweights. Almost like when top corps didn't compete in the VFW/AL Nationals. If DCI receives word from enough corps that they are showing up, they might put some type of competition together, otherwise, I'll still go with "it's more for marketing and future recruiting."

If the bridge tour for 2021 isn’t exactly going to be a competition, what are they possibly going to do for three straight days?
Live broadcast of their performances?

Or DCI has year end clearance deals! 👕
If you're referring to the member corps, they should do this.

That I keep thinking about the stories that will come out, maybe next year, about all the shenanigans that took place about many aspects of this virus.

There at 2 corps who traditionally are well off are not participating in any DCI events in 2021. That's probably why they have deep pockets.
One reason, but year round bingo has to be a major reason. (That is if they can operate year round.)

well it also depends on what the costs will be. based on the guidelines and protocols in the doc floating around out there on all of the safety measures, I wonder if a $4k fee is enough
Probably not, but a corps, with deep pockets, might eat more of the costs that are normally passed onto the mm. "Hello fellow BOD member. Well, we're going to need some extra financial help to get the corps involved with the 2021 scenario."

People thinking there will be a ‘21 season. Lol
Don't need a competitive season to announce a uniform choice. Again, I'm thinking loads of marketing for future years and maybe some regional concerts in 21.
