Easy question. La Strada

The opening statement in SCV's show sounds AMAZING with trombones. Gives them a nice dark sound.

Allentown - 1999 - Watched SCV practice before the show. Hornline worked on Blue Shades the entire time. I'd say it was a good way to start out my love for DCI.

Crown wins percussion. Did not see that one coming.

Lol. Wow.

Love this show. Great music and visual. Drill is very effective. It's going to be close all the way up until finals between Cadets, Crown and BD. I hope it's between Cadets and BD. I really do not enjoy Crown's show this year, which is rare for me. I know they sound amazing, but the show does nothing. Cadets are amazing and so is BD...and SCV...and Phantom...and Bluecoats...and...well, they're all pretty darn good this year.

1 - Blue Devils - BD 95 got me hooked on drum corps when I was 10 years old, so BD will always be my favorite. And I am proud to admit it, BD 2010 is one of my favorite shows of all time. 2 - Santa Clara Vanguard - Second most listened to corps and have always loved them. First show I ever saw them live was 99. Loved that show. 3 - Phantom Regiment - This one was hard. I have enjoyed the Bluecoats...but I don't there's enough shows that I like from to put in my 3rd place. And there are WAY too many shows I enjoy from Phantom.

Scores are up. Let the fun begin. Blue devils - 76.15 Crown - 75.45 SCV - 72.6 Blue Knights - 69.05 Pacific Crest - 62.350 Mandarins - 59.7 Open Class BDB - 61.15 VC - 60.45 BDC - 43.9

Hey everyone, does anyone know what Madison used for sound effects in the beginning of their show for Pirates of Lake Mendota? Thanks

THIS!

It's just the same complaints about BD year after year. If you don't like the show, well then good for you. I happen to like it. I also don't agree with the thought process of: "Since I don't like this corps and their show is boring to me, they don't deserve to win." I think it's childish. I personally did not like Cadets show last year. I did not find the music engaging. BUT.....I still completely understand why they won, I understand why they beat BD. They were better the corps.

Big BD Fan here. Great season to all the corps, a truly GREAT and enjoyable season. I hate to say this since I'm not a fan of Hopkins, but what a great design he and the Cadets staff put together this year. As much as I hate to see BD lose, I'm glad they lost to this show. I just hope the Cadets continue down this path of design. I'm already looking forward to next season!

Yea, I'm not overly surprised with the scores. Finals is going to come down to who is judging that night. I'm more shocked over the spread between Blue Devils/Cadets and Cav's.
