Wild Nights

That would have been 1992 (War and Peace).

If you call that overblowing, well, then.... :w/Stp: :)

bump?

Holy. Crap. I knew what was going to happen.... and I still got chills. I'm still trying to find my jaw, I think it dropped onto the floor at about the part where Faust tears off the demon's mask. I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's my second favorite- only to the power and gloriousness of the 2003 hornline!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

Grr!! Just the year I am trying out, too!

You must die!! :P Well, it may be true that the top groups get preferential treatment from sponsors, but I went to two practices this year: Cavaliers (gold) and Phantom Regiment (silver). I have multiple recordings of both those shows (I have yet to buy BD, which was also a great show). And Phantom Regiment is a lot richer this year because of me. So frankly, I think the most entertaining shows WERE the winning shows. <-- OPINION

So how do you go about obtaining copyright information for all the classical music written since 1922 (especially if the composers are dead)? I'm thinking Shostakovich, Rimsky-Korsakov, Borodin, Holst, Prokoviev, Copland, etc...

Phantom Regiment Cavaliers Cadets Bluecoats Blue Devils... Hm. Theyre so crammed up there at the top...

I can't believe Sal Salas got the boot. What were they thinking???????????? Didn't he get director of the year or something a couple years ago???

Well I havent shown the 06 shows to anyone, but I have gotten several people hooked with the Phantom Regiment 2003 video, and at least one or two more interested (these are people with no musical background by the way) with the 2000 Cadets show.

WE HAVE A WINNER.

Last year I saw a HS do "Rhapsody" complete with the Gene Kelly guy and the eiffel tower/chevron at the end. GRR. I also saw a band with SCV's old uniforms (except blue where the green was) play The Canyon. ARGH!!!!!!

2003 Regiment (Lord's Prayer) 2006 Regiment (Ave Maria) 2005 Cadets (Dancer in the Dark) 1993 Regiment (Fire of Eternal Glory)

ampssuck ampssuck ampssuck HORRIBLE. That's tragic. Blech...

If we're allowed to do chord PROGRESSIONS, then my vote goes to the end of Lord's Prayer (Phantom Regiment 2003, 7:12-7:42). The battery triplet at 7:15 gives me chills as the hornline just launches into that fantastic chord progression. That is one of my favorite parts of any drum corps show I've ever heard.

Don't know about I&E, but the Phantom Regiment ballads CD gives her name as Alyssa Schild, if I'm not mistaken.

As I said in the other thread, I'm still going with Phantom Regiment 2000- the big balanced chord at the end of "Transfigured Night." I have never heard a chord and release like that, ever. DANG.

Read the topic...

He's still with The Cadets b**bs Kidding, only kidding. But I tried, and I couldnt pass it up.

I dont think this was a "coolest moment" thread, but a thread about those drum corps moments that just take you to a deeper level or another place. I have two: 2005 Cadets- the ballad. The interaction beween Danni and the corps was amazing. I love when she's backing up and the snareline follows her down the yardline. It's haunting and beautiful. 1993 Phantom Regiment- also the ballad. Fire of Eternal Glory, when they all lay down their helmets. WOW.

Phantom Regiment 2000- the big chord at the end of the climax of the ballad, Transfigured Night. That's it, right there. Voting closed. A close second is the end chord of Ave Maria (PR 2006)

My Heart Belongs to Me- 1979 Devils Elsas Procession- 1979 Regiment Journey Through the Snow- 1987 Regiment If We Were in Love- 1989 Devils Fire of Eternal Glory- 1993 Regiment Transfigured Night- 2000 Regiment Lord's Prayer- 2003 Regiment Dancer in the Dark - 2005 Cadets Ave Maria- 2006 Regiment My Heart and I- 2006 Bluecoats That about sums it up. Those are just my favorites, any other Regiment ballad since, oh, 1956 or so, is automatically nominated.
