I miss not being at this show. Erie is a drum corps town. The fans are close to the field and there is a cool breeze that blows off of Lake Erie.

Thanks for posting these tweets !

Geno - You will be missed my Brother . RIP - YNWA

It seems most here can not define GE either .?.? So does it boil down to like or dislike ? Is that how GE scores are produced ?

:thumbup:

Some" Never Walk" goin' on !

Thanks for posting from the show .

What is GE ? I've asked many differant people this question and they all give me a differant answer. I've asked friends, DCI judges, fans , people who teach judging, the list goes on and on ! I never get the same answer from anybody. Why is that ? How can it be judged if you can not define it ? General Effect ...... does it have to have a good or bad effect on you ? How do you score that effect ? I mean , I love liver & onoins ! My Wife likes them, my Son can take em' or leave em', and my Mom HATES them . I would score them a 10, my wife would score them a 7.5 , my Son more than likely have them at a 5.6 . My dear old Mom has not tried them sence she was a young girl when her Dad made her eat them. Now Mom being Mom she can't score them 0 , but she knows they use to taste awful so she gives them a 1.3 ! Now according to my family these numbers are the general effect that liver & onoins has on them ? I love them just as much as my Mom hates them, both of these are effect ??????? right ? I smile , she barf's ! Effect is effect , be it good or bad ! Drum Corps is no differant . Seems to me if a judge A likes what corps A is doing in music GE tonight he give them a 7.8 . Tomorrow night judge B hates what corps A is doing in music GE he gives them a 4.7 . Which one is right ? Can someone define what GE is ?

About show time !

My wife ( who is not a big drum corps fan ) said , " Thats the biggest cheerleading squad I've ever seen. "

The other corps in the background is drivin' me CRAZY !

This is a great venue. The stands are very close to the field.

Yep !

Is DCI going to put up any APD's this year ? My long ride to work really needs them !

I agree with you . I really wish they had picked a differant name for these shows. Should be called ," Last years top 8. "

8 of the best shows ?

Well stated Mad-Dad ! I know that exact feeling.

Thanks for posting!

Dorthy must not be in Ks. anymore !

My son said they were there quite some time ago.

I would agree......except for the bald guy !

Show start time has been pushed back some.

I have not seen anything from Granny Smith in a long time. I hope that if she has left us she's marching 8 to 5 and throwing triples on that big band field in the sky !
