Somehow, BD winning percussion tonight just seems odd, 10.0 in content very strange.....just saying.

Do it Bloo, all of us old alums are with you!

I marched with Bluecoats that year, we did an exhibition show there, we were in the area and had a few West Virginia players. Remember Bridgemen doing that.

Yep, first live drum corps show I ever seen, back around 79 or 80 I think, old Marshall stadium in Huntington, sell out every year.

I know they do, been there a few times, just too much money to swing it for that, add Bloo and I would be in 🙂

It's a more mature show than Boston's, better design than Crown's. Crown's brass performance scores are keeping them ahead of Cavies for now, that might change as well.

Born and raised in Charleston, not going to make that 4 hour trip to see the show, just not enough top corps there to warrant the travel expenses. Wish DCI and show sponsors would put together a better line up for this show, used to be a very good show years ago.

Yes, frankly, I thought Cavies where the 3rd best show there. Just wondering if they can hold on to 5th long term.

Yeah, crowd response was incredible, I sat 7 rows up on the 50 so I could gauge the response really well....and Bloo owned the night by a huge margin.

Was at the show last night, Bluecoats did indeed have the biggest crowd response...by far, even over Crown. Cavies show is very good, not sure if they can catch Boston, but I wouldn't be surprised. I find it hard to believe that BD's horn book has more content than Bloo's. There just isn't anything there that would put it in contention with bloo's brass book. I'm sure that this late in the season the judges would have a grasp of book content from all the corps. But the most striking thing from last night was just how good every corps was, even Spirit and Phantom had well designed and entertaining shows and were performed really well, haven't been able to say that the last few years.

Naaa naa naa nan a na naaa….Hey Blooooo

I'm hearing, clean, big, and game over....I like it already 🙂

…..and I get to see it live sunday 🙂

The flip side to that is that they have time to clean and perfect the ending before Indy.

I agree 100% with this, really takes away from the otherwise good show.
