Ms.L

On Saturday I'll be in section 536, Row 2, seats 21 and 22. Decided about a week and a half ago to make this happen. I think our seats are about on the 3 yard line but I don't care. Was thankful to find seats not in the end zone! My name is Lori. And by some, I'd be considered elderly. 😉

Can you imagine how much fun VK would have with electronics today?!

Yep, have wondered that myself! lol

Was just commenting on that yesterday to one of my former students, who's passion is to march Crown someday.

Absolutely! Thank you Kevin!!!

Had thought about coming down for this show but too many obstacles got in the way. I will watch through any of you that are there! Thanks for the pictures and any upcoming commentary! On a side note, just last week a good friend and I decided at the last minute to go to Indy on Saturday. Seats are on the far right on side 2 but I don't care, I'll be there seeing it live with my best dci buddy!

So far it Spirit. Although BK scored first.

Terri, have you been able to find where they are streaming it? I can't find it on their page. I only see links to watch the game and you have to sign up with a viewing program that claims it's free for 5 days but will have a recurring membership fee. When I tried to sign up, it sent me an email to confirm. I click on the link to sign in and I get 'Page not found' Grrrrrrrr....... Actually maybe I'm just impatient, imagine that. Seems they streamed other pregame events so I will trust that they will stream this as well. Hope I'm not charged for my 'free' 5 days haha.

Will be watching for sure! I have a former student that went to the Band of Excellence camp the last two days and got to play with Bloo in the pregame concert. He told me he had lunch with the Blackbird soloist yesterday. He was thrilled to say the least!

No kidding. Sheesh!

Now I'm hungry! 😃

Their fast piece was the Rondo from Prelude, Sciciliano and Rondo by Malcolm Arnold. Legit wind band piece.

Ahhhh yes! I knew it sounded familiar. Thanks!

I'm not sure but one reason for the slow roll out might be because they are getting all the guard back into the same uniform first? I LOVE that some of the guard is in the same uniform as the hornline at the beginning!

Makes me wish I could go to Indy this year just to see Jersey Surf live! Well that and all the other amazing shows this year...

I can't wait to have Runzas again! I grew up in Nebraska but have lived in Michigan the last 18 years. Moving back to the plains states as soon as I get my house in MI sold.

I got to go to their rehearsal the day before the premier. Took a student of mine with me; he went to the fall camp last year and got a call back, he will be marching there one day. Anyway, the Coats volunteer that got us into the rehearsal revealed nothing about the show other to say that I would probably know it in the first three chords, then changed it to the first chord. Yes, I recognized it as a Beatles show in that first chord. My student didn't know it was a Beatles show until they got to Come Together. Sad. Just sad.

Me too. And now I get to sit right beside him. Maybe my elbow will slip.

I have a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes. I'm not even remotely associated with The Cadets but I am proud of them and admire them like crazy. Waiting for the Z!!!

Same! One of my co-workers wants to do some of his music with our high school band. I'm holding out.

I'll get there Friday this year. Bringing my nephew who graduated from high school this past spring. He's a percussionist but his high school band did not march. This will be his first live drum corps experience.

So far, it seems the first three corps had better performances than last night. Cadets were amazing considering all those out and probably many marching that aren't 100% healthy!

Have to admit, I was browsing posts here...until that ballad started. It has a way of grabbing your attention and not letting go!

I've been having more issues with Flo today than ever. But I think it's on my end. Powered down, started back up and it seems to be better. Crossing my fingers that it lasts. Good luck to you!

This is what I tried to reply on Terri's post. https://mashable.com/2015/10/05/viral-red-carpet-photo/#dNVIH2YbMaqKhttps://mashable.com/2015/10/05/viral-red-carpet-photo/#dNVIH2YbMaqK
