Exactly. I'm sorry, but: Scatter sets Slow moving drill Not playing anything difficult while moving Not moving fast even while not playing AND Not much unison guard work DO NOT EQUATE TO DIFFICULT - you could say that for this year too.

BAHAHAHAHA. You're so funny.

I 100% agree with the Cadets finishing 4th. Their visual execution was sub-par (relative to the top 3), as was their color guard. These issues bleed into GE. I had them 4th all three nights. Their show, on the other hand, was remarkable for what they were attempting. I loved this show - one of my favorites, but the execution just wasn't there (visually).

I cannot believe Crown did not win guard.

Wow! Crown for the win! 20 in guard, 20 in brass, 40 in GE!

UM..where's the high cam? Both are multi for me.

####. AT FINALS SCV! BUMMER.

None of these three are doing it for me this year. Something turned with the Cadets between Minneapolis and now for me. Bloo is good and interesting but I feel I've seen it enough - same with BD.

Excuse me officer, Phantom's drill is absolutely not more challenging than BK's.

I think I'm going to skip Cadets, Bloo and BD and go back and watch Madison, Phantom and BK - my three favorite shows this year.

I will also this singing in BK's show is the only singing I've ever liked. It's beautiful. WHat a great show BK put on this year. Love it.

I think Madison and Phantom are a notch above Cavaliers.

Time for my favorite ballad of the year.

I saw them in Stanford and didn't think they had a chance of placing lower than 8th, but I agree they have come a long way.
