It's possible we've been had again by an OP who lights the fuse then runs.
Watching Carolina Crown makes the hair stand up on my arms. What more explanation do you need for why they're awesome?
On the contrary. I am reading and what I get out of all of this has been eye opening. Perhaps some of you are correct in saying that I will never be a Crown fan. But it was nice to see it from a fan's perspective. But what I hear from all of you is mainly about their brass and me being a visual person (hence the SPINmetosleep) I guess I will just never get it. I thank you all for your time and for those of you who were not quick to jump down a persons throat when they ask questions.

I usually hate pre-season predictions but as a recent age-out I'm bored in the off season
1. BD- because they're the Blue Devils
2. Crown- Unless they make some visual changes they're not going to get that top spot
3. Phantom- Not getting the full recognition they deserve for playing that awesome music
4. SCV- All those bando's will be cheering for the new movie music on the field for the first time (I know it's not the first time)
5. Cadets- Never out of the top 5
6. Boston- Ok, slightly biased but they're making some big visual changes which will hopefully give them a more mature show and boost them up
7. Cavaliers- Nothing against them but I would like to see a slight shake up in the top 6
8. Bluecoats- Last year was the first year that I could say that I liked the Coats show. They just kind of seem forgettable to me.
9. Madison- Happy 75! They'll come out strong as always but won't manage to keep up.
10. Blue Stars- Back in the top 12 this year
11. Crossmen- Keep it comin' Bones
12. Blue Knights- Just don't do it for me but strong enough to be in the top 12

Why do you seem to have this compelling need to be persuaded to like something that you don't like ? And if you think I 'm interested in trying to persuade you to like something that you don't like, given the choice, I 'd rather try to spin you to sleep, SpinMeToSleep.
Compelling need? I guess you can call wanting to expand your knowledge and taste a compelling need. Usually Crown threads have so much fighting I can't pick anything constructive out of them. I figured starting a non-confrontational thread might help. My bad.

Ok we need a popcorn emoticon here because this is gonna get Pret-ty harsh in a few.
Why would it be harsh? Why would you bash on someone who is trying to see your point of view?

DISCLAIMER: THIS POST IS NOT TO START A FIGHT (of course that is near impossible of dcp)
Ok, so here's the deal...I am NOT a drum corps rookie. I have been around the activity since I was 5. I understand show design and such. But I'm not seeing it in Crown's shows. I want to like Crown and all I hear are amazing things about their shows...but I just don't get it. Someone PLEASE explain what is so fabulous about them, show me videos sound clips anything just help me because all I get from their shows is that they are OK at the max and underwhelming. I must be missing something.

I wouldn't tell all former members to get over themselves. That's a hard thing to go through as a member especially coming off a gold medal in '07.

It sure is a shame to watch such a great corps dwindle like this. It seems as if the new staff and the few members that are left have their work cut out for them. While I don't aggree with the staff changes at all and in my mind I think that this corps that I and many others have loved will never be the same, I think it will be interesting to see what they put out this year. See you on the field Spartans and best of luck
