  1. i said nothing about the show being judged on applause, i just commented on madison fans being a bit overboard on fracked high notes and dirty drill. i don't disagree with the placements, i just commented on the fans. the only thing i said was that visually crossmen were better and the sheets proved that. jesus... so much for making an observation.
  2. /no i didn't spellcheck, and could care less on this forum. but it's ok, i have 2 degrees, so i must be good at something. so much for replying to the TOPIC and getting nailed on spelling. and since your defending your favorite corps, i guess what i said was right, and you had nothing to say but i failed at spelling... hmm.
  3. i'll bite. the first time i saw anything all season was the week of allentown and semifinals night. So since im a drill junkie, i am all about clean, readable forms and GE. if anyone noticed, the first 4 minutes (until the moon rotating circle thing, which even though was cool, was dirty) of the show for the colts was scatter drill. Not 1 form lasted more than 2-3 sets. HOW can you clean that?!?! and people said crossmen parekd and barked too much back in the day.... not any more. Crossmen had the hardest drill out of all 3 corps and honestly visually crossmen was the cleanest both in feet and guard. also i observed that when madison was preforming semi's night, people were obnoxiously clapping for every little thing even if it was dirty. It was like claping for the name Madison not for the product. You can be die hard fans/alumni, but i don't clap for drity weather its my fav corps or not. what happened with the scores happened, but just because you (OP) thought that someone was more entertaining that someone, doesn't mean shhh on the sheets. jus sayin....
  4. thanks for your thoughts! keep pushin crossmen! 2 weeks till DCI east!
  5. my corp(s) uses Corpsdata http://trigonroad.com/cd/ info@trigonroad.com hope this helps!
  6. crossmen 00 and 01 - AG is the man and the new caption head scv - 2001?... in the ballad. crossmen 04 ballad, both the beginning soli and the soloist. some late 90's PR and cadets stuff, lots to mention
  7. SCV 2000 crossmen 2004, 2007... due to their placement they usually don't get the credit but these two were pretty cool ballads. cadets and phantom usually every other year do something cool. bluecoats 02 just the few i can think of off the top of my head.
  8. i agree with the crossmen show, i think it was voted best ballad on DCP in 04. i agree w/ crown, just not the BEST in dci ever.
  9. heard the same thing.... apparently some staff member was defending the corps when FANS were saying something that didn't need to be said. yikes.
  10. QUOTE: Crossmen: .........Boo to the broadcast team for showing tons of footage of the '78 capes, and in the process COMPLETELY missing the '07 capes they were hyping. I really wanted to see that! BStars. Oh please, oh please, get solid blue pants next year. QUOTE i agree completly.... i have heard about the capes all summer and i miss it the ONLY chance i get to see it. and as much as i really didn't get into BS show... they probably would have done better had they had solid pants. I think the top is fine just get all navy pants. I saw atleast 3 ticks just because their body facing was different than the person on either side of them. otherwise i enjoyed the theater... Crossmen, BD, Cavies and crown AND Jersey Surf got the biggest cheers in my theater. and i won't comment on the field lining thing, other than it was a much needed restroom break for half the theater.
  11. i agree. crossmen got no love this year. they did a really hard show, tributes to the past and marched their butts off and for all they have been thought with the move AND starting spring training a week later than everyone, 15th place by 6 tenths for now is not bad at all. Props to the members and staff!!! i hope all that can return do - staff and members. i am excited for next season already. go bones.
  12. i agree with the above comments and i'll add this... EVERY member spends atleast a thousand dollars or more to participate in this activity. Gives up their summer to attempt to perfect 11 minutes of music with 134 or less other people. The rehearse hundreds of hours, sleep on gym floors and probably work harder than they have ever worked for anything. and for YOU to boo that takes some bal_s. You don't have to like the show, heck there are probably some members that don't like the show there marching. BUT you have to atleast respect that they all work hard to do the show they are given. Thank god your not going to finals, don't want you to ruin the DVD or CD for anyone.
