You never know, maybe one of the next 13 will lay an egg or get a penalty and score below LA Stars. 😉 Wouldn't matter. Any penalty would be just enough to keep the Big Boys in posted from the DrumScorps app

No way in hell cascades should be in Semis. Every other WC Corps didn't have a jump of over 2 points except Genesis. Then Cascades get the exact amount needed? I call BS. OC 4and 5 were definitely more deserving. posted from the DrumScorps app

Nice! My son aged out as a Contra with the Stars last year

Which Corps is your son in?

Just hoping another corps doesn't need the help next year. Wonder if they would get the same support. Hoping they would. posted from the DrumScorps app

Probably pretty darn close Top 4 definitely, I think 5th will make it as well posted from the DrumScorps app

Talent wise, for sure. It'll depend on the business end and if it's their organizational goal. They started smart business wise with limited touring so it seems they have good people behind them. And probably won't have to beg for 100k to "continue posted from the DrumScorps app

Bingo! posted from the DrumScorps app

Also have been impressed by SW, Guardians, and Gold. Should be an awesome Open Class show this year!

I have been impressed by the improvement of La Stars this year. I think they have a decent chance of moving up from last year.

And then ask everyone else to bail you out. Just because you "can" doesn't mean you "should".

Ok, maybe I went a little overboard, too much television. But in regards to the money situation, they should know how to budget. No need to perform every night, and have "top notch" everything. Live within your means. I know a lot of people that went bankrupt because of overspending, and nobody gave a crap. Why should this be any different? If this happens to one of the "lesser" OC Corps next year, will there be the same sense of sympathy? Will the Legends be able to help that Corp out?

Will they need another 100k next year? Other corps have folded due to finances, why can't they handle their own.. I pay dues for my child to participate, also volunteer with food and anything else I can. I can guaranty though that Legends scores will escalate even more due to this SOB story

Does anything really matter if all the judges do is get lazy and basically "slot place" everyone?
