  1. 1986 Blue Devils 2005 Cadets 1993 Star of Indiana All at finals
  2. I know Teal Sound (obviously) and Boston Crusaders do. In fact, I believe that most of Boston's camps are in Florida
  3. Based on fan network, recaps, and PERSONAL opinion: 1. Carolina Crown 2. Cadets 3. Blue Devils 4 Santa Clara Vanguard 5. Phantom Regiment 6. Bluecoats 7. Madison Scouts 8. Boston Crusaders 9. Cavaliers 10. Spirit of Atlanta 11. Crossmen 12. Blue Stars 13. Academy
  4. Sweet! Beautiful part of the cape! When are you and yours leaving us backwards little islanders?
  5. Where on Cape Cod are you staying? This local wants to know!
  6. That was announced after the season ended. Jersey Surf announced in July of last year Wait: why are we discussing who announced first in the Bluecoats 2012 thread? Go Bloo!
  7. Boston Crusaders Snare. From Mapex Facebook page
  8. I have one prediction this early: WHOEVER HAS THE HIGHEST SCORE WINS! I will not have a more accurate prediction for a couple of weeks, but I have some ideas as to what might happen: There might be a new champion this year The Cadevaliers might win this year At least two of the three Cadevaliers will be in the top 3. At least one of the Cadevaliers will win a caption People on DCP will complain when their corps doesn't perform as well as expected These same people will call other people homers when corps close to their's do better than expected Some corps will get overhyped all season long Some corps will get underhyped all season long People will complain about the Blue Devils People will complain about where people are placing their corps in the prediction thread Some people will be entertained, and some people won't
  9. Pacific Crest's Snares and Tenors. From Mapex Facebook Page:
  10. Just throwing it out here, but 11 days to the first show! Also, I voted for cymbal player, despite being a contra player. Even assuming that a contra player hides, which will be difficult with their contra on an island. The cymbal player can sneak up on them and assassinate them with their cymbals, and trekking through the jungle of the island, the cymbal can cut vines and shrubs out of the way, whereas the contra can only get caought
  11. I had a run in just last week, and I forgot to report it. I am going into the local 99 restaurant for dinner before I went to jam with some friends, and I am wearing a Crossmen shirt. The hostess asks me if I march. Turns out she marched mellophone at Boston last year, but couldn't this year because she was going to Israel. Enjoyed that 20 minute conversation
  12. Just gave my contra a bath. Everyone else I know now knows beyond a doubt that I am strange...

      Let's add Mr. Bubble to it, and you can sit in with Lawrence Welk's orchestra.

  13. Are these drums going to look like Cadets' drums from 2010? If so, these will look sick with their uniforms
  14. I appreciate this information. Also, do you know if the glassmen will be selling their old dynasty horns? I only ask because I need to acquire a B-flat marching tuba for some up coming gigs
  15. I have actually been compiling this list for world class corps, and updating it with new announcements on this subject. Academy: Jupiter Bluecoats: Yamaha Blue Devils: King Blue Knights: Jupiter Blue Stars: Jupiter Boston Crusaders: Jupiter Cadets: Yamaha Carolina Crown: Yamaha Cascades: King Cavaliers:: Yamaha Colts: Yamaha Crossmen: Yamaha Glassmen: Jupiter Jersey Surf: Jupiter Madison Scouts: Yamaha Mandarins: King Pacific Crest: Jupiter Phantom Regiment: Jupiter Pioneer: King Santa Clara Vanguard: Yamaha Spirit of Atlanta: Yamaha Teal Sound: Jupiter Troopers: Yamaha Yamaha: 10 corps Jupiter: 9 corps King: 4 corps Dynasty: 0 corps All of this is based on information currently available, so things could change I also have this information available for drums if you would like that also
  16. As a recent high school marching band graduate from Massachusetts, I can agree that winter guard/percussion are much bigger activities here than competitive marching band. Also, in competitive bands, very few players want to go on to drum corps. I was one of the few in my band who wanted to march drum corps, despite several alumni from my school marching in a variety of corps.
  17. Just Voted in the second round I picked: 09 over 82 I may like Rocky Point Holiday a lot, but I like West Side Story even more 87 over 00 This was a tough one for me, but I ultimately picked Appalachian Spring, despite how much I like the battery work in 2000 03 over 90 I just like 03 better 83 over 05 I like both, but I like 83 better 85 over 98 I like 98 a lot, but it doesn't wow me like 85 does 07 over 93 Really tough, but I picked 07 despite the narration 11 over 10 84 over 89 This was my toughest decision to make, but I ultimately picked West Side Story over Les Miserables
  18. Hey, I don't know if anybody else saw this, but the Cadets are doing a march madness style bracket on all their shows from 1980 to 2011. I think it is a really good idea, and their are some really good match-ups. *EDIT* Forgot to put in the link http://public.bracketeers.com/matchup.php?id=901
  19. Things I am most excited for: 1) Figuring out where I am going to march my age out 2) Seeing the Cadets 3) Seeing Crossmen 4) A PHENOMENAL season of drum corps
  20. Greetings all, I am looking to buy a marching tuba in BBb. It can be heavily used, and have any valve configuration, and I have noo brand preference. The only thing I am really looking for is that the horn be under $1000.
  21. Most Beautiful Ballad - Crossmen (still humming hallelujah as I type this) Most Intense Visual Package - *TIE* Cavies & Cadets Most friendly - Jersey Surf Most Impressive Corps Director - Chris Komnick Most Surprising - Boston Crusaders (Wasn't sure how they would do this, like themselves in '88 or Cadets in '89) Most underwhelming - *4-WAY-TIE* Crown, Bluecoats, SCV, & Phantom Most Surprising Open Class Corps - 7th Regiment Most Looking Forward to Seeing in 2012 - Jersey Surf Corps causing most argument with student - *TIE* EVERY CORPS IN EXISTENCE (He hates all drum corps b/c he claims that they aren't musical.)
