  1. So many more corps are marching more than 12 mellos though a lot 14 .... some 16. But now you see more 70 - 72 man hornlines. So thats where those extra numbers are coming from.
  2. Average number for a contra line in the 90's was about 10 ... these days you see an average of 12 ....
  3. Blue Knights ... they have "rumored" peices they are playing but nothing on their website and no show title.
  4. You know this website never seizes to amaze me. All y'all talk about are the Cadets, or bd, or cavies. Never a corps lower than say 6th place .. then all of a sudden a corps that hasnt gone over like, I dont know 6th place goes away .. the world ends .... Its sucks that esperanza is gone ... but really; do you really care? .. no.
  5. 1. Phantom Regiment 2. Blue Devils 3. Cavaliers 4. Carolina Crown 5. Blue Knights 6. Santa Clara 7. Cadets 8. Academy 9. Glassmen 10. Spirit 11. Madison 12. Boston Yeah .. its gonna happen

  7. Ok just finished watching all 23 corps. Phew. Pioneer Very dirty. Its cool though that this corps is still very alive ... with actually what seems to be the biggest hornline they've had in a long time. I hope they still keep on truckin' Esperanza Also rediculously dirty. This show didnt have much to it, the members looked really tired towards the end of the show and it shows through the sound. Horrible percusion line. Pacific Crest Fun show could see where they were oing with it. Seemed a lot easier then corps before them on the DVD. I actually would have had them at about 19th or so. Not bad ... for a weekend corps. The Magic Started out really good ... then defenitley let me down. Not good. Seattle Cascades Good guard. Nice show concept as well. Good hornline as well as drumline. Southwind Amazing show! Loved this show one of my favs from this season. Shouldnt have placed that low at all .... I would ahve had them at about 15th or so. We need more corps pushingthe envelope like this corps. Great show!!! Mandarins Small corps. Good show wouldnt have had them before south wind though. Dirty guard drumline not good ... alright hornline for that size. Dont remember much. Capital Regiment Not a fan. Feel like that show has been done before. Thought it was really cheesy. Very good marhcing band show though. Crossmen I actually do like this show took me a little while to get used to it. Neat concept and very fresh idea also. Loved the show. Blue Stars Thought it should win the lamest show award ever. Come on seriously lets have another america themed show. Boring .... the only show I fast forwarded. Colts Great show. Really should have made finals somehow. Good guard. Spirit Fun show. Not bad concept. Good 12th place show. Glassmen Eh didnt get into it. Good and cleanish. But boring. Boston Hahaha also a very good marching band. Madison Scouts ###### drill kidna dirty but very happy they beat Boston. Carolina Crown Good brass blah blah blah. Easy show. Blue Knights Cool music very mean and powerful, great soloist. Really like the closer. Scv Cool show nice drill ideas. Great brassline. Cadets Best ballad of the year. Actually really like this show. Might make more sense if I was tripping on acid. Other than that. Awesome show. Bluecoats Alright dont really get into bluecoat shows. Bad gaurd. Great other sections though. Devils Nice show. Very BD Phantom Ill say it ..... should ahve won AMAZING SHOW. Cavaliers Cool dril. Cool moves. Getting boring ... anyone else??
  8. HELLO!!! Blue Knights home show ... amazing stadium and amazing corps.
  9. This is a topic for Reviews of the DVD's ... Maybe for coprs members that havent seen the shows til now. Maybe some new reviews from people that saw finals but looked different on the DVD's. Mine: Disc Three: Spirit: Very entertaining show. Liked this one a lot. Can definetly see why they were so far ahead from colts. For the most part very clean drill. I remembering hearing the title in the winter seasons and saying this wont go anywhere ... very good. Glassmen: Although pretty gawdy I liked thegaurd unis. Beautiful tuba solo in the ballad. Not bad on the classical music scene. The song though after the ballad not really that cool ... didnt get into it. Staging and things like that. Over all definetlyplaced where they should have been. Boston: Eh ... I haventreally liked Boston since 2000's Bolero. I do however remember seeing a BOA show quitelike this one in 2005. Its not really as entertaining as Boston usually is. This was the only show I actually fast forwarded. Just didnt get into it. Not bad drill pretty cool. Gaurd was good. Thats all I got. Madison: There were definetley a lot of drill issues and phasing. I mean really cool drill and really intense but a little on the dirty side. Cool music ... really enjoyed the opening gaurd blanket things. Crown: It was tough to see the differences between this corps and BK. Crown seemed to have a really clean show. But it maybe seemed easy to me ... I am sure it was hard to march or play but it seemed like they could have had more. I would state the obvious that they have a great hornline ... becasue they really do. I am a brass player myself but I really dont see how their percussion is holding them down THAT much ... it seemed alright to me ... but obviously not to the judges. Beautiful gaurd. Clean Drill. Good ballad. Neat drillmoves. Blue Knights: This corps got a lot of crap this season especially after beating crown on finals and being booed. But this is a good show and what seems to be a harder horn book than crown or any previous hornline so far. Really intricate show ... Ifyou havent heard the original ofbarberspiano concerto op. 38 you need to get a hold of acopy its an amazing peice and Bk sticks really close to the original without corpstizing it. Beautiful hornline movement throughout. Good gaurd and coollooking flags. Good show and entertaining .. dosent deserve all the crap it gets from people on dcp. Nicehorn book. Best BK show Ive seen since 2000. alright havent watched the other discs yet but ... will have a review soon yall!
  10. Maybe phantom will be playing Bach "air" on g string??? Possible play on words? dunno ... just a guess.
  11. Blue Knights are playing: Shostakovich's Piano Concerto no.1 and Symphony no.10 No show title as of yet ... expect something with Knight in the title haha
  12. well ... darknesswillprevailagainandaveryfamousrussiancomposerwillbethemusicchoicefor2007 . ^0^ ^0^ ^0^ ^0^ ^0^ ^0^ ^0^
