Continental

Was a landmark Windsor restaurant located near the entrance to the tunnel to Detroit. Was closed about 5 years ago.

No Tunnel BBQ?

I love how the drill continually flows. Everything just so clean. There's one set that JB repeated from '80 (well, almost identical). The rotating arcs that meet in the center before the brass/guard pass through in the ballad are very similar to the opening arcs in Easter Overture at the beginning of the '80 show.

I sincerely hope honoring the Cadets tradition means a return to maroon and gold.

Cool overhead view of Phantom's '81 show - from prelims in Montreal. https://youtu.be/4wFFFL4Davc

Didn't PR win M&M that year? ***just confirmed, they did win M&M in 1980.

The guard back then was tough as nails. Suta, was John Brazale running the guard program for Phantom back in '79? I thought he started with the guard and then moved to visual in the 80's.

IKEA really should sponsor a show. Overheard in the stands during said show: "I can't pronounce the name of this show." "35 pages into the drill and I still don't see how this all comes together at the the end." "I can't wait till they add the matching end-tables at the end of the season." "That drill in the upper right hand corner has become too tight and it's caused a crack." "Is it me or is there a part missing in the show?" "I thought this show would be quick, but it seems like it's never ending." "Why does everyone stand in the aisles during the show?"

Looking back, Phantom has had red as part of the uniform on multiple occasions.

My emotional support Llama just told me to start supporting everything you said from now on. Great family name!

Sutathesaurus? What kind of a name is that? Oops - get ready for the off-topic police.

LOL Oops. I'm not supposed to agree with you. Tag teaming once again. My emotional support Llama tells me not to. I tell him to stop spitting at me.

Its regular on my end.

LOL

For someone who doesn't take this place seriously, you spend a lot of time here.

While not being all red, there were multiple times when they had red as part of the uniform...the latest being 2017 with the red accent

The emotional support Llama I got is helping.

The ballad from Paul Lovatt-Cooper's "Immortal" would be perfect for Cadets. But please oh please go back to maroon and gold.

I would write a supportive comment, but yesterday I was emotionally scarred because you and I were accused of being a tag team duo. As soon as I stopped hyperventilating, I looked up "rent a safe space" on Google. None were to be found. I rushed out of the house and luckily on the corner of my street there was a cardboard pop-up safe space (great idea Fridgidaire!). I curled up on the floor of it in the fetal position as I pondered life and all things about it. A good amount of time passed (as well as a nearby skunk) until I began to think of ways to turn this unfortunate event into something more positive. Unfortunately it started to rain and the walls of my safe space began to bend. It was time to return home. However, while thinking of ways to turn this around, I came up with a show idea for HGTV called "Trading Safe Spaces." I feel it would be quite popular although they need to be careful which designers they choose for the show. Hildi would probably cause more emotional damage with her designs.

There is hate out there. A lot of it is obvious hate. Your generalization does not make it any less horrendous than it is.

The staircase props from this year's show might have been put to good use.

Then the cost increase can be passed onto the membership.....YEA!

Someone like you with the experience you have on this board is the last person I would expect that response from. So it must be the cold taking over your body and making you a completely different person than you usually are.
