Haha I marched Boston but Crown was fun that year to watch from the back sideline and I never got to see it fully, just listened to the audio all the time.

Yep! Unless I'm going crazy I only see audio, which I have already. Don't get me wrong, I'm very appreciative of being able to listen to all these shows but after 5 years I'm dying to see these shows again somehow. I might just splurge for the DVDs and just accept all the cuts they made in the finals tapes.

Boston and Crown in 2017

For some reason that website only has video from 2019 season and nothing else.

Yeah I forgot about those but I think like whole parts of shows are removed which is super sad. Copyright sucks Thanks for reminding about them anyway

Yep!

Hey there folks. Does anyone know why its so hard to find recordings of 2017 shows? Is there a place we can purchase them? I fear that the official recording of my show is just going to be lost forever, which is really sad.

I think I’m correct in saying this, but it’s actually insanely crazy how close Crown and SCV were - 0.037. If Crown had scored 0.1 more in any subcaption across the sheet, they come in 3rd. That’s INSANE. posted from the DrumScorps app

Tell that to the Bluecoats! 8-5/ sitting and still couldn't win! I’m glad I’m not the only one who notices that. I could listen to that musical program all day. I’m excited for when it’s released on iTunes, but I was bored watching! Drill was boring, easy, no velocity at all! They start off the drill great then start walking around and dance the rest of the show! posted from the DrumScorps app

The most entertaining show does not deserve to win based off that. You actually have to the demand and execution of that demand as well. Bluecoats does not have the overall demand other shows around them have. If you notice the scores the last couple shows, their achievement has been higher than content a lot across the sheet. They need to add more demand and execute it and then they will win. posted from the DrumScorps app

This has happened multiple times this summer, unsurprisingly. More judges are finally noticing. posted from the DrumScorps app

Judges are finally noticing. Multiple judges had them higher in achievement than content in different captions. Their program is not as difficult as some of the groups beneath them. The show is just so well designed that a lot of people don’t notice those things. posted from the DrumScorps app

That movement is so fun! Color guard galore, awesome energy and drill.

Yeah I don't think they're standing still by any means. They're certainly moving and playing a lot more than they did last year, in my opinion. I think its just become the nature of how shows are nowadays with the implementation of a lot of dancing. If there's any demand in their visual program, its in their choreography. But the marching aspect... meh. The hardest marching aspect of their show is the beginning and they're not even playing. Everything else for me is underwhelming 😞 (I really like 2000s shows). But we all have our own thoughts and opinions and its chill.

Lots of half-time marching if you ask me haha
