I think that the voting created some"interesting" results. Unfortunatly the 80's were left our of it. Yes, we did have 3 corps from the 80', but that was barely a technicality. 1980 show's which were great were very much in the 1970's style. 89 Vanguard is a great show, but much more like the early ninties shows than the bulk of 80's shows. (I also think that SCV should have represented the 70's which they so dominated) I would have liked to see something like 86 Cavies or 87 Cadets in the 80's.
I think for the next time a better system might be to pick one show from groupings of 3 year periods, that way we don't leave any out. The bottom line is that there are a lot of great shows and every one has their own favorites. It's impossible to please everyone one hundred percent. for me personally, Phantom 1996 made it totally worth while, but they were all fun to watch.
