Blue Stars had 29. Only 9 were from the hornline.
Aw crud. Makes the chances much more difficult for a shot at a spot.

Why are you yelling at us?
SO YOU CAN SEE HIS PURE ENJOYMENT!
-
Could anyone even try to read the original post and stay on topic? It makes it very hard to read from the shadows if there's nothing good to read.
-
Now I heard from one guy that Bluecoats had a ton of ageouts (not gonna say how much).....anyone else know from other corps?
I remember seeing the ageouts coming out onto the field and seeing the mass amount of Bluecoats in the back of the line. Easily 35. Probably more.

Caption please.

When I first heard the concept for 'triple crown' I wanted to hate it- it seemed so cheesy. Stupid Horses.
Only made it worse that the ###### corps performed the h*** out of it and it is one of my top 2 shows from that year (tied for first with 'Criminal').
great job, CC
Which 2010 show did you change your opinion on the most?Hehe.
-
Being a brass player, the sound of the hornline as a whole would give it away. Marching style and drill also could give it away.

I REALLY DON'T UNDESTAND WHAT YOU MEAN. DOES IT REALLY MATTER IF BD WINS BY 1 POINT OR 2? A WIN IS A WIN, RIGHT?
As a spectator, it means more to see competition. It would be impressive if BD pulls an undefeated season with a big spread, but I would rather BD pull an undefeated season with one or two corps just a step behind. It's all about predictability in the competition.

I read your CI theory, on how judges appear unwilling to allow a Corps to win DCI unless somehow it was in the top 3 the year before... has to apparently earn their dues. with the judging community.
The corps can't win without having medaled in their past. Has nothing to do with the prior year, according to CI.
However, on July 19th, 2008, Phantom Regiment placed 4TH, several points off 1st place,( more than" 2 " pts here ).... 21 days later ( in the same year ) Phantom Regiment was crownd DCI Champion. The CI theory falls apart here.The CI theory explains how Phantom Regiment could win by a small margin based on prior Finals placements. It doesn't relate to placements within a season.

Here is a compilation of OC scores accompanied by the date of their most recent performance. The majority of the corps haven't performed since July 17th.

Spirit of Newark/NJ 53.800 (7/17)
Blue Saints 49.800 (7/17)
It looks like a few corps may be missing.

I am not sure why is is bothering you. The spread with Cadets and BD is now getting bigger. BD is just so strong this year in every caption.
That's what I mean. I want someone to close the spread. Anyone. Anyone at all.
-
92 already? Jesus
Someone better close that hole. It's bothering me.
-
I know it's two seperate shows but with so many corps performing I thought it'd be interesting to combine the scores from the two shows as if it were a big regional.
92.00 Blue Devils
90.30 The Cavaliers
89.35 Crown
89.05 Bluecoats
89.00 The Cadets
86.30 SCV
86.20 Phantom Regiment
85.35 Boston Crusaders
84.60 Blue Stars
83.50 Blue Knights
81.95 Madison Scouts
80.70 Glassmen
78.10 Troopers
78.10 The Acadamy
76.70 Colts
76.15 Spirit
75.45 Crossmen
73.95 Pacific Crest
72.35 Mandarins
71.20 Teal Sound
69.50 Pioneer
68.95 Cascades
With these numbers, though not entirely head to head competition, it looks like Boston has the capability to be top 6. Plus there's tough competition in spots 3-5.
-
A cut and paste from the DCI site with scores displayed as something completely different?
Nope, it's correct. Check out the DCI scores with the recap, then copy and paste it yourself.
-
Why would The Cadets be most affected by a long delay before the scores? I don't comprehend...
I think that's just a personal note.
-
Heck, what drum corps needs is more cowbell!!!!!
-
Cavaliers '00 - '07. I wasn't around for anything pre-2000. Cavaliers were just on top of their game. It was close for me though considering BD's recent streak. They could very well have had a three-peat and be on their way to a four-peat had it not been for 2008's surprise ending.
-
Star 91. During the cross to cross, watch the drum judge. Nearly taken out by multiple rotating lines.
-
Does Ashely have more years to march?
Three or two. Can't remember which.
-
I have been wondering this for a while. It boggles my mind somewhat. What happened to the early 2000's dominance that Cavaliers had? Each and every year up to and including 2006, they placed 1st or 2nd.
-
Newbie question: I know that the brass will march leaving a hole for an absent player, but I thought I heard that the percussion line always marches w/o leaving a hole. True? Sometimes?
In the case of Crown's center snare, they wouldn't close the hole for the fact that she's just injured and will return in one or two days. The case that you're talking about is more of a "we can't fill the hole with a competent musician" hole. In that case, a drumline would more than likely close the hole whereas the hornline would put out a memo for experienced brass players to fill in a hole midseason. There are more proficient brass players than there are percussionists.
-
According to last night's show, Crossmen is looking for members in all sections of the hornline.

WHere are you sitting ??
G
It was a quasi joke. I don't know yet. I'm winging it as well.

If you want a face full of mellophone, sit on Side 2 and bask during the opener. Bask all day.
