Sheffield, PA - Friday, July 26, 2019
dut_addict replied to DrumScorps's topic in DCI Open Class Corps Discussions
There some sort of formula. I want to say (from a vague memory) that the lineup is sorted by last year's score at this show, then divided into three or four groups, then randomized within each group. So, if you won the show last year, you're guaranteed one of the last 3 spots, but it's random which one. -
Millbrook, AL - Saturday, July 13, 2019

Anyone at the show? Weather update? -
I wasn't there, but I'll bet Legends had a meal immediately following performance. Probably what you saw was family, friends, and volunteers heading back to the food truck to meet the corps and hand out food and hugs. Guarantee no disrespect was meant to Spartans or any other corps.

OFFICIAL DCI FINALS THREAD
dut_addict replied to ZachDrumCorps's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
As an OpenClass parent, I had no real stake in tonight's outcome. But it does highlight the one aspect of this activity I wish were somehow different - the fact that everything - a whole season, 1000's of hours, and sooo much work comes down to one single performance. -
Question on marching Open Class
dut_addict replied to BAC031001's topic in DCI Open Class Corps Discussions
As a 2nd season OC parent... My advice echos much of the above... OpenClass is, I think, the right place to start...and more local is better. If 7th and Spartans are reasonably close, explore them both. Most corps do camps prior to auditions - do those. Then audition for both, spend as much time as your can with the members and instructors - you would be spending every waking minute of 2 months with these people, find people you like and respect. There's no real rule-of-thumb for tuition (that I know about). Also, if you're perc, check out WinterGuard programs. Both my boys started in WGI and I consider it a decent first step towards marching DBC. The biggest thing is to DO... -
Official DCI Prelims Thread 2015
dut_addict replied to Cadevilina Crown's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
They did announce first block of scores. I don't have them, tho :( -
Is there a schedule for I&E published anywhere? New parent looking for help/advice...

As far as Genesis being better than BDB goes - I don't think one show is enough to even really plant that seed. According to the BDB calendar, they traveled all week prior to last night - no formal rehearsal days. If Genesis beats them the next show or two, I think your question has merit, but my guess is BDB was shaking the rust off last night.

Nobody I know better suited or equipped to handle that kind of thing than Legends' director. And his members would step into traffic for him. He'll get it sorted and behind them in no time. -
Which Open Class Corps Will Make Semi Finals?
dut_addict replied to chadwick's topic in DCI Open Class Corps Discussions
Legends, MC, 7th, Genesis all have had very little head-to-head up till now, and have plenty coming up in the next week. Too soon to tell in my book. -
