It's the mystery number.......... How different judges reward communication gets interesting too.

Lee (and the people who support his crazy theories) don't even know the current emphasis in the judging system. I laughed out loud until I realized he was serious. What was more shocking was the people who commented in support of his views. People need to figure it out. Also, some people should not bite so quick without thinking about what they are putting in print. You may want to go back and re-read your comments.

All of the corps are learning the electronics game as the season goes on. I was in Scranton where the Cabs pit was over balanced the entire show. In Clifton it was better. Both C2 and Bucs had their out of balance moments at the Reading show. The implementation of electronics will keep getting better. I don't think anyone can argue the fact that the DCA corps are now "up to date" with programming which has resulted in a greater level of entertainment. Last year, the Cabs pre-show was very cool and they could not have set that mood once the show started under the 2014 rules. The fact that they could not keep that feeling going into the judged portion of the show was a bummer because it was so cool. This year, they have added some neat moments as well. C2 and Fusion also use electronics to enhance their shows as I am sure MBI does. Fusion's use is more horizontal while C2's is more vertical, both helping to enhance their programs. The Bucs use electronics in many ways to enhance their program. They find ways to enhance their very creative transitions while providing a variety of colors with their choice of patches and samples. Everybody wins, unless you are one of "those" who refuse to accept change.

Stop making sense.

I felt like I was watching an episode of Beavis and Butt-head reading this review.

I thought the placements were all correct. How the overall rankings worked out by looking at the caption scores makes no sense to me. Ah, what do I know?

That's not my point. The White Sabers have a nice percussion section. The Bucs were not third on Saturday by any stretch especially a half of a point below the Cabs. There were several caption scores that made me wonder if I was at the same show.

I was shaking my head at this one. So the Bucs are closer to the White Sabers than they are to the Cabs in Percussion? Don't count on that holding up people.

That he was

You will see that before Rochester

and there you have it.

Burgers were good.

Decent review Jeff! I thought the corps were very entertaining as well and it looks like the DCA championships are shaping up nicely. To add to your review, I thought the White Sabers were very good and on their way to their best product to date. Hurcs soloist was awesome! C2 was decent and I can see them possibly mixing it up with the top group of corps if they can get the horn line worked out but they have some work to do. The Bucs were just at another level and have a show that entertains like no other corps I have seen this year. They had me 15 seconds in and never let go. All around a great night.

You sounded great Fran! Both live and recorded.
