    One can only hope. Not sure what it feels like...2016 or 2015. Hoping for the latter lol. Same type of situation....BD are the underdogs with a very young corps. But they could surprise. That was one sweet victory.

    true true.. lol i hope so too.... for a young corp they are really impressive, even though i can say BD having a young corps over the past years always do greatly same, it's impressive

    Yep. GE is king with the current system. You either have to win it, or be pretty #### close if you want to shot at a ring. 

    Yeah definitely. The last two match up with top three seem to have boost a bit in general effect if I am wrong correct me. But I am really praying the final changes or additions will give the show that significant general effect boost along other improvements esp in music. and clean clean clean... and I believe the gold will be theirs.

    I think BD at least took one sub caption in percussion and moved up a spot in brass. SCV clearly won but I feel like BD just got a tenth closer.

    I can not see how Mandarins are not beating PR.  This top 3 is my favorite in many many years. 

    Oh yes I just looked at it..

    Great job tonight BD! Keep pushing that magnificent and amazing SCV and let's secure that unprecedented 12th straight top 2 finish. Considering that this year's age-outs was nine years old when you started this run of top 2 finishes just shows how bad*** you really are. And if this year is a silver medal finish, i will be hype till next June considering the last four times you finished with a silver, you came back the following year with a undefeated season, while the corps that beat you that particular season didn't even medal the next year. You continue to prove that it's one thing to get to the top of the mountain...........but it's a different story staying at the top of the mountain. Other corps might win themselves a title once in a blue moon and trust me they deserved it and earned it, but NO ONE can match your consistency. Let the haters keep hating and the trolls keep trolling!

    DO IT UP DEVILS!

    Chief Guns You saw it on the stream last night right  ?

    There may or may not be something from last night, shot from a very high vantage point, which gives you a fantastic view of how beautifully the whole show is constructed, floating around in the internet ether....

    The new ending visuals are GREAT and feature the four characters in the rotating circles before making way for them to enter the diner. Much, much more effective than the old version. I'm sure the flag work will be beefed up a bit from what it is now, right before they appear.

    One thing that hasn't been really mentioned this year is how WELL they move the props around. The focal points are so carefully orchestrated to pull your attention that you really don't notice what is going on with these giant pieces until they are suddenly all assembled in the back. Even from the high angle, you still don't really see them move  unless you specifically focus on them. The b/w NYC maps on the windows make them much more effective for soloist stages before they join the diner. So good.

    The magic dust is being liberally sprinkled now, so let's see what the next two weeks bring....

    Yes the new drill in the closer is absolutely Amazing and brilliant, it's like a shape shift and dissolved into the rotating circles with the four characters in the middles. The effect and visual is really great. you can tell there is more to be done on the closer that is already so good.

  7. It's finally show day, let's get this. Later on I have prior engagement which falls right into the start of the last group, and I am to miss that ? I dont think so!!. I am definitely bycotting that engagement because the day have arrived and I can't miss out anything. My Flo $50 is not going to go down the drain like that, worst they haven't streamed anything up into the week. Nah ah...  no way
