I don't know who steven69 is but he sure as heck doesn't represent current marching members of Crown. If he DID... I would hope staff would ensure he just aged out My son was completely thrilled with the placement as most every one else was in the lot after finals while they celebrated and took pics with the Ott plaque. Don't lump us all in, some have grown up since being a toddler

Well, the only was I see that Crown can become original is to finally do a "fast food wars" show. I suggest the guard dresses half in burger king costumes (creepy) and half Ronald McDonald and they do a battle royale while the corps plays music from the star wars cantina scene. Would that work?

Is guard that much more difficult than say a brass spot? I know of baritones that marched after learning the show and music in a week. (I buy his clothes and food)

You're right, lets just let it die. We can always watch marching band on Friday night at the high school anyway. Pass the haterade please

Ha.... so how did the friggin chickens get in? Because it seems fairly common knowledge that they are owned by Clemson! (is this still DCP?)

I wish I understood half the crap I read on here but since i'm a musical idiot I only know what moves me as a fan and a parent. I love what Crown has done since my son started marching. His first year was in.trance.it and to tell the truth I didn't get it but I was hooked on what he was doing, since then I love the last three immensely. I am however able to say what I like with other corps, for example, outside of what Crown has done I absolutely am mesmerized by Cavaliers Machine! pretty much the same for Blue Coats last year. I can't tell you unless it's obvious when a note gets fracked or a tear occurs, etc... but I know what a great show is and there are a few this year, I just hope the judges agree that the grass IS in fact greener in Carolina!

uh yeah.... that's obvious

You seem to be very on edge lately, I realize you marched Cadets but you don't really have to defend every single post that gives criticism. I thought that the post in question was very explanatory in a good way on what was noticed. Not negative. Others ARE in fact entitled to opinions that you won't like. Trust me, I don't like many of them myself but it makes one seem a little bit like they have self esteem issues when they jump at every little thing to bring a defense. Just my .02 and I of course don't know crap about Drum Corps, I just pay the bills so my kid can march

Somehow i'm not really surprised at all....

Wow, I don't think most of them see it that way, at least I hope not...

awesome!

One Baritone will be filled tonight. He needed a few days to learn the show... He is pretty excited

??? OK, either put down the pipe or learn the "one hit only" rule thanks

Can anyone tell me what trolls eat? I know dorkfish eat corndogs from listening to Bill Engvall but I believe this to be a pertinent question considering the amount of new trolls hanging out here today

touchy folks here today...

Really? I have not really seen that. Of course I am Honk but still, I seem to see more of that for PR and the Cadets...

But that's just it... it's not impossible because it happened!

Not sure... I know my kid is hating the rain since they have dealt with it pretty much since Rome, NY. Hope he isn't sick, didn't say so this morning

I heard they have a gun show there next weekend and also there is a boat show coming up....

Thanks, tried my best to find the pic of him in a marching uniform from when they played the bowl but have had no luck as of yet. Can't wait till tomorrow for the show!

A little excited... first chance to see the shows live and visit my kid this summer on tour Thursday, July 9, 2009 WC Hawkins Stadium at Irmo HS Irmo, SC Competing in 2009 (in reverse performance order): * Carolina Crown - Ft. Mill, SC * The Cadets - Allentown, PA * Blue Stars - La Crosse, WI * Boston Crusaders - Boston, MA * Crossmen - San Antonio, TX * Teal Sound - Jacksonville, FL * Alliance - Atlanta, GA

I don't like to put much stock in "home show" judging so I agree there but I doubt HNC is the only Corps out for blood either... Did you watch any other Corps rehearsals? I hope to see some rehearsal tomorrow morning for the Columbia show

Can't wait to see the wet replay on FN

I am officially bored by this thread which sucks since im a CC supporter and parent.

Wow.. i'm loving this year Pick away folks, it's all in jest and i'm just happy to see the ride wherever it leads Crown
