Impressive stuff from Spartans! Really enjoyed them. Love the unis!

Just got home….. wow Guardians! Great show!

Congratulations SCVC! Loved their performance. Looking forward to watching everyone tomorrow!

THIS. 1,000 times this.

Popped over to Open Class to rewind a bit. Holy Vanguard Cadets! Can’t wait to watch all the corps tomorrow.

Gorgeous Santa Clara. I feel like I barely breathe watching this beautiful show. The ending is sublime.

Santa Clara on deck!

I heard the show is canceled. Not 100% confirmed though.

Yaass Troopers! Love love those uniforms and costumes. Probably my favorite use of fabric this season….. clear design intent and so effective.

Ah Troopers. Love it.

Beat me to the comment 😁

Not to be all Type A and annoying…. but I believe it is a silk moth 😉. I only say this because I love the tie into the theme. And yes it is beautiful!

I know I’m like a broken record….. but SO much to love about Mandies show! Favorite moment after favorite moment, start to finish.

Looooove Mandarins opening moments!

I know BK has their challenges this season, but I always love them visually and their beautiful use of color.

If I am reading it correctly, dci.org has a schedule of all of Flo’s live streams and they include every competition Finals week. Prelims, semis, and finals are listed as well as both Open Class competitions. That list has been my go to for schedules and times.

Ok Blue Starrrrrrrs!!

Love Mandies show so much! It’s just all kinds of cool.

Woo let’s go Mandarins!

Holy smokes! Cavies looking awesome. LOVING this show!

I do tend to idealize SCV, based solely on my son’s experience with them. We have them on a bit of a pedestal in our family. But these last years have definitely seen a reality check for DCI as numerous MMs have come forward with their stories. I do recognize that organizations and leadership can be seriously flawed. My heart goes out to you most sincerely. The hurt obviously runs deep and yet you remain fair and supportive. Hopefully in the future there will be resolution and closure for you. Meanwhile I am so glad you joined the DCP community. Your input, insight and analysis have been a pleasure to read! As well as your love and support for SC.

My son marched tenors with Vanguard Cadets in 2008, and then with SCV in 09 and 10. Ballet for Martha has been my favorite show ever since, and I absolutely LOVED Bartok. SCV was my son’s dream corps and he was thrilled and honored to march with them until he aged out. I’m so sad to hear that anyone struggles with alumni issues. I don’t think my son ever has. SCV affected his life enormously. He has been a tenor tech with finalist corps ever since (as well as WGI). Still being involved with DCI gives him life.

Noooooo 😢

The props look so much like clear quartz crystals….. which symbolize healing and energetic support. That’s how I interpret them. I think they are beautiful and elegant. Much like the show.

A little zen, a little dissonance….. elegance and sophistication. Ahhhh Vanguard 💟
