There are others that could be added to this list as well. Both BD and Cavies come to mind. Having seats in the first row on the fifty for years, I can attest to how loud it gets; it's like a rock concert. Both our bodies and seats are vibrating hence the ear plugs. Many times you can't even hear the brass lines over the speakers. It's like hearing that person coming down the street with the bass so loud everything is vibrating. IMO it's going to be difficult to put the toothpaste back into the tube, but turning it down a notch or two would help.

They do have DCI shows in Johnsburg PA on the 29th and Dublin OH on the 31st.

Unfortunately due to DCA show cancellations and show dates being moved, CT will not be getting a DCA score prior to prelims. Being fon at 2 p.m. will certainly make things interesting.

Inconsistent guard judging

Yeah I understand, kinda like if you can't play the trumpet solo sing it instead. -

And if you haven't done it or can't do what is being done, how would you know how difficult it is? -
Inconsistent guard judging

I would have thought that the caption (Guard) would have been renamed by now. Perhaps use Cast or Company instead. I'm surprised both rifles and sabers are still used. Anyway yes there appears to be allot of inconsistencies in this caption. Without two adjudicators the caption is susceptible to personal biases such as equipment use vs dance or staff affiliations. One brings to judging what one knows or has experienced. I would hope those judging this caption understand all elements of equipment use, dance and acting. But I wouldn't bet on that. IMO many members are better educated in areas of music, dance, voice and acting than those evaluating them. -

Bloo would have to be in 7th or 8th place for that to happen if that would happen at all. -

Bloo does their version of drum corps. Opinions of those who adjudicate seems to be much different from those who are fans. I was in San Antonio and the audience was pretty clear about who they liked and as a former marching member I'll take that any night over someone's opinionated evaluation. -
DCI Dallas --Another Hot One - Monday, July 24
Jim Schehr replied to DonR's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I would think they stay ahead of Cadets regardless of when they appear. Don't no why it would matter, doesn't seem to hurt BD. BTW believe we may see the first perfect score ever come Indy from BD 100. Yes they're that #### good. Perfect in ever way possible. -
