To have Cadets 5th? I'm actually surprised Mandarins were so close. To me, Cadets were clearly the 5th best corps tonight, but I'm not a judge. Love Cadets, Mandarins and Regiment. All three have great shows.
Agreed. Also LMAO your pfp

All that I know is that during Bloo and BAC all that I could think about was the SPECTACULAR performance by Crown. My guess is the judges were too.
This is sort of what I was thinking. IMO Crown gets 💩 on a lot of stuff every year which is whatever, but this year I think they’ve had such a great show. People sorta discounted them a bit as a locked 4th. However, while doing this comparison I realized how much the other two have major pit and drumline moments where they are the focus. Crown’s drumline is just as good as the others, they’re just arranged too symphonically for the judges tastes I suppose. I get it, I like the approach as a classical music lover. It just doesn’t seem like something crown is willing to sacrifice. That’s fine with me too. Great job tonight crown.

Quick straw poll of the folks around me. Nobody liked the narration, and it was too loud and sometimes ear piercing when it first enters out of nowhere.
It's just an incoherent show. People say Bluecoats or Blue Devils shows are too out there. This show proves there has to be some sort of thought behind the craziness. This show is just. incoherent.

There are a few spots where energy really drops, as well - not a lot for MMs to work with there. But they really kill every time they are given a chance.
It's such an *ugh* show for me.

Love BK so much. Whoever designed this show is evil. I really just am not a fan. These vocals are worse than RHRN bc absolutely nothing is happening. I'm glad they are fighting for finals, though. They are performing the #### out of this show.

Right it’s so random and I’d choose a different note

This show reminds me of 2014 where it seems like a never ending show with things going on at full strength in all captions. Just from start to finish. It’s like maximalism done well. Which is kinda ironic given the simple nature of the late Matisse works. So so good.

Yeah that was bada$$. I can only say that about so many stand stills.

I poked fun at the chapel chapel chapel chapel chapel bit but this standstill has allowed me to enjoy it. In fact I've enjoyed this standstill a lot actually. I think the visual is what's probably what's thrown me off with this show to begin with.

Funny thing is this show is very much stand still/ audio only adaptable.

Hey ya'll at least the drumline is giving us some drama and choreo! Werk drumline.

Confused reactions are so weird. Like why is anyone confused. Either you agree with me or you don't. I'd rather someone say, "You're wrong stupid" than hit that confused button. Grates my nerves.
Seriously. I'm gonna start throwing tomatoes 🍅

The french audio dub drum break is so 2012 DADA ####### love it. I don't know how to explain it but I love when BD does 2012 weird. Any time I hear anything from them that gives that vibe I'm so hooked.

Not hating on the whale fin tarp. Loved Crown's tarps, and I love a whole revealio sorta thing like that. But I think humans are so funny if you think about it. Big tarp go fly. Big tarp. Fly. Tarp of whale. Tarp fly. Whale tarp. Very good. I like this. I clap after seeing big tarp. Whale tarp.

Can finally sit down, I'll have to rewatch the others before Crown tomorrow. Great run Crown and Phantom. Crown really is just cleaning so nicely. I've noticed new drill, new music, new choreo, just new everything. What's amazing for them is that I can tell there's definitely WAY more left to add. I'd be cautious with this as I really didn't think about it as 15 days left....but they know what they're doing.
Phantom is also cleaning nicely and I just love the concept and exploration of it. Love the tarps. Love the drill and guard silks. I love other really random things about this show...They have a battle with Mandarins without doubt.

What? Whoa. Seriously? I'm not Poppycock. I know one of my big weaknesses is my big mouth, but I'm not that person. I enjoy you all so I hope you don't think I'm some horrible poppy person.
I can guarantee I will #### you all off again at some point, but I will always apologize for it.
No you're fine! Just unabashed and sometimes sassy. It's okay I am too. 🙂

Cadets Suspend for 2024
in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
Posted
My favorite corps. I considered auditioning for Cadets after watching their 2015 show in college, but I was actually terrified of them. I mean that as a compliment. They just seemed THAT good to me. They had such a seriousness to them unlike anyone else. After reading/watching a lot of history from them, that’s just who they are. True professional craftsmen of the art. This ordeal has added a lot to my guilt of never marching. Who knows if they’ll ever be back. I will always wish I could have been a part of such a historic, unique and unmistakable corps. I really hope they can come back.
