  1. I'm with ya! I know that they have had issues throughout the summer but hopefully that will be worked out by the time this weekend rolls around. Somebody had said that they were only showing warmups in the lot for Finals.
  2. Is it true that FloMarching is showing the actual performances from Semis and finals nights? Kinda surprising if that is the case because of the DVD and all that but I've been wrong before .
  3. I'm telling you all now...this is going to be an absolute dogfight from here on out. BD, Crown, SCV, and Bluecoats will brawl this thing out tooth and nail for the next 3 weeks on a nightly basis and I literally can not wait!! How I think they will finish: 1. BD 2. Bluecoats 3. Crown 4. SCV How I want them to finish: 1. Crown 2. SCV 3. Bluecoats 4. BD
  4. I've actually thought about this topic a lot more since my initial response and I have a few more choices: 1. 2013 SCV - Les Mis show that was simply breathtaking at the end and although I only saw it twice thta season it is still one of my favorites of the last few years. 2. 1992 BD - That closer though....I remember sitting at my first DCI show that summer and when they hit that hit of When A Man Loves A Woman I will never forget how that made me feel! It is to this day one of those iconic moments that I could listen to every day for the rest of my life and be content with life.
  5. That was my first summer of marching (Magic of Orlando) and I remember just being in awe of the power that that Madison hornline produced night after night and they were constantly on! That show hit every single night and had it been put on the field a year prior it would have mopped up!
  6. That is a stellar brass book in 2003 and I remember sitting at Finals that year and just hoping that they would dial it in a little and it never happened.
  7. This is a fascinating topic because it means different things to different people. 1996 SCV 1995 Cadets - although not really underrated most don't talk about it because of the wild BD show and the majestic Cavies show from the same year. Couple that with Madison (one of my fav they have ever done) and it is kind of an ill forgotten treasure. Visually it was a great show.
  8. This is so rad!!! Is it ok that I'm jealous of a 9 year olds birthday party?!?
  9. Blue Devils 1996 Star of Indiana 1993 Santa Clara Vanguard 2004 (This is a remarkable horn book!) Madison Scouts 1995 (I loved this show and was astonished that it placed 4th) Suncoast Sound 1986 Crossmen 1997 (Toughest one out place but this show should have placed 4th that year…best drumline I’ve heard out of Crossmen in years!) Bluecoats 2007 (94.050 and in 7th place…really?) Magic of Orlando 1996 (Marched this show and so it had to make it in) Blue Stars 2016 ( Really like this show a lot) Velvet Knights 1990 Spirit of Atlanta 2013 Troopers 2009 (This was one of the coolest experiences I’ve ever seen at a drum corps show was them being announced onto the field at Finals) A lot of these could easily be swayed but this is my list.
  10. This is fantastic! Being a huge fan of the Beef and Cheddar sandwiches at this establisment, I applaud Arby's for their outside the box promotion campaign!
  11. Great question and I have a few submissions: 1995 Cadets 1996 BD 2011 Phantom Regiment List could go on and on but these are a few.
  12. Glad I was wrong...I went to the Winston Salem show that got rained out for a good portion of it and it is never a good time becaue the anticipation is so high and then just a real let down.
  13. Goign to throw this out there and maybe I'm wrong but si this not the same field that was brutalized last night by the field crew and forced the cancellation of the footbal game. I guarantee you that they won't cancel an NFL game and let a bunch of DCI groups get out there less then 24 hrs later and just wear it out but I've been wrong in the past!
  14. Any of three 1993 shows (Phantom, Cadets, or Star) Each was so vastly different then the other two but each was remarkeably performed and it was a dogfight until the end. Many forget about these shows (especially Phantom) but it takes hearing 30 seconds of any of them to bring you right back.
  15. That entire show is just stunningly done from the uniforms to the visual aspects of it and literally everything about it. The honline was world class and the visual program is one of the best I have ever seen them perform (outside of 1993)
