AMAZING AMAZING POST. For someone so young with such a mature and extensive post~!!! EVERYONE must view page 7!!!!

No i was just responding to some of the other responses that didn't talk about volume.

The volume of a drum corps is defining to a drum corps for that reason. What brass player didn't get goosebumps during the first note of their first hornarc? Comon...

Yeah they should all go home.

Oh ####. Not now...

Yeah I thought that was the wierdest score for the Cadets. That was definitely out of character, especially since the Cadets won guard in Semis and placed second in finals.

haha, what part was blatantly dirty that you could refute. it doesn't have to be the cleanest, but what part says it can't be considered clean? If all else I'd take a look at the visual performance, color guard, and percussion execution. not scores. but just a suggestion to look at it in terms of those aspects.

1983-1985 Garfield Cadets - Drill changed forever. Simple as that, an utter transformation on the spectrum in which a field performer must take on the field. He is responsible for odd, unpredicatable, kaleidoscopic movement in all 360 degrees with multiple responsibilites as the formations and drill became ever so complex. The drumline was no longer simply on the 50 yard line, the hornline's concentration of tempo switched from percussive aural to visual and percussive at different times. 1987 Garfield Cadets - In my opinion the Paradigmatic Drum Corps Show of all time, that epitomizes the connection between the audience's and performers end of "emotion". We see this brought to life between 1988-1993, with shows like New World Symphony and Phantom of the Opera. 1993 Star of Indiana - Ushered in a new "philosophical" approach to the activity on the field. Can be seen in the 1993-1998 shows, utilizing a lot of body movement, informal modern expression, or in other words "out there" material, deep and thoughtful material was put on the field 1999-2000 The Cadets and Santa Clara Vanguard, these shows added more of your 90s elements with the effect elements that Star 1993 brought, basically a mix between the 80s entertainment factor as well as the deep apprach that was contained in the mid 1990s. These shows state that design and entertainment should be one entity as art. These are the shows we are left with today. 2002 The Cavaliers, 2003 Blue Devils, 2005 The Cadets - Masters of general effect, while not all were enjoyed by 100% of the audience. These shows became the paragon of what we consider today to be some of the most overall clean shows. In terms of color guard performance, the demand certainly increased as dancers danced even more and spinners spun in methods never seen before.

hmm... I definitely wouldn't say much about that brassline.........

The guard was absolutely amazing. Wow did they clean their act up finals week. Jumping 2 points

Phantom 2006 They were just on fire. Every section on fire.

I was just watching this show one more time and was checking out the scores from finals. Is this possibly one if not the cleanest third place show ever?

One of my best friends has the exact same songs that are tossed up in the air. He better win. My birthday's coming up soon.

Boycotting is asinine, You do realize it'll never happen, and if boycotting happens, well let's just say drum corps are fragile as is economically.

My friend says that if the cavies can make the stadium sing along to Billy Joel, they deserve to win.

Belshazzar's Feast is not one song.

2000 Phantom Regiment 2002 Crusaders too 2003 Santa Clara Vanguard 2004 Phantom Regiment (what a brassline with amazing stylistic articulations)

If the Cavaliers win again. I think I'm going to care very less about placement. Not that I hope they lose, but it would be very nice to see someone else up there.

1- 2000 The Cadets - Company front to Close 2- 1990 Star of Indiana - Final Push with Drill 3- 1999 Santa Clara Vanguard - Final Push 4- 2006 Phantom Regiment - Closer 5- 1987 Garfield Cadets - Dissolving Company Front

I'm tellin ya that guard had some pole timing issues here and there. Spacing in one of the spaghetti drill looked a little branched during a night in tunisia.

The Cavaliers guard in 2002 finals night didn't seem to have their best run, quite a few drops, phasings here and there that were noticeable.

Yeah those flag poles weren't exactly as strong as other years.

Yeah I'd have to disagree with the cleanliness of 2003 Cavaliers. It had great demand, but there were quite a few visual tears here and there, the guard probably the weakest since 1998
