I wasn’t there so I wouldn’t know what was said at the gala. Sorry. -

Did everyone see Phantom’s staff announcement today!? Looks super promising. -
Pacific Crest 2022

I make plenty of positive comments. Go take a look at the Mandarin’s thread, as well as Bluecoats. When I feel there is something “positive” to say about PacCrest I will say it. But, I haven’t seen anything positive yet. -

The way things are shaping up, looks like PAC Crest is going to get passed up by a few open class corps. -
DCI Central Indiana (Muncie) July 1

Just want to throw this out there. Colts drill was better then Cavaliers drill. Same drill writer. Now, I know a lot plays into that, design teams, music, field set up. But Cavaliers look small and cramped most of the show. Colts, look like a full drum corps (which they are) the take up the entire field sometimes. My eye gets lead all over the field to different events. Seems like a big miss for Cavalier, and a big win for Colts. -
This group is already so impressive. I think they are going to pass up even more finalist.

Santa Clara Vanguard 2022

But you can tell that the corps isn’t even excited about them. In 2017, 2018 and 2019 the corps did a uniform reveal. And once again, I think those uniforms looked fantastic. This year nothing! They know they’ve messed up. I wish I knew how to post a photo here so I could show you a picture from their warm up. They look thrown together, and poorly sewed. -

They don’t have any covid holes. All the holes we are seeing are REAL holes. They don’t have enough kids. -

This show won’t come close to the title. Guaranteed. -

First, I mean no disrespect to the members. Second, I love what drum corps are doing with uniforms these days. Brings the show to another level. But, the Vanguard uniform is awful. Looks they are wearing diapers. What happened? The 2018 and 2019 uniforms were great. Someone dropped the ball here. -
Corps at the Crest
OldManCorpse replied to Hook'emCavies's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
Simple review of tonight’s shows. Scv- very underwhelmed. Looks like getting rid of JD was a bad idea. Music is kinda boring. SCV music usually gives me chills. Not this year. Drums are solid as always. Not very good staging for the snare feature when the disappeared behind the entire drum corps. I saw kids out of step!!!! I don’t know if this will be a top 3 show. Mandarins- wow, wow, wow. This was the show of the night! They are gonna kill it. Music is great, staging is great. Props are a wow!!! This show is gonna go after some other finalist groups and pass them up. Academy- solid start for them. Good overall show. Most likely not a finalist. But going to be in the top 15. Music is good, drill is solid always. PC- they have a lot of issues….. recruitment is obviously a problem and they have holes all over. Looks like they kept writing drill and didn’t change anything. The opener music is great, but then goes down hill from there. This will sadly will not be a good year for them competitively. -

This is kinda sad. What happen to PacCrest? They were on fire in 2019. Were there significant staff changes?
