  1. And they only have one Santa Clara member… they are legit. Phantom and Cadets have nothing on them.
  2. I think Mandarins are the best thing since slice bread. Cadets are not it. Phantom, never heard of them after watching the level that the Mandarins presented. Just stop trying cadets and phantom. Let’s go Mandarins!!!!
  3. Score Predictions (In performance order) 65.2 Madison Scouts 67.0 Colts 74.8 Phantom Regiment 77.1 Carolina Crown 70.8 The Cavaliers
  4. They are wrong. Crown definitely has more musical demand the BAC. Also, whatever horns they are playing on sound like a kazoo and a chainsaw made a horn… Not good. (Nothing on the BAC performers themselves, just the instruments)
  5. I rewatched the Flo Broadcast last night and I think that Crown has the potential to win. I didn’t say they would, but they definitely don’t have weak sections this season. A struggle they have had in the past. Crown has the vehicle to continue to grow their storyline throughout, something that Blue Devils, Boston, Bloo may struggle with after seeing their videos. Will those three become stagnant while Crown continues to push forward? Will this be the year? Obviously the Brass will be a strong competitor for the Jim Ott but could the battery push into the top 3 with their staff change and new approach to the musical structure? I think it’s a possibility! The battery seems to have a unique identity and brings a new flavor to drum corps, I’m welcoming it with open arms. Then the color guard looks to be building off their momentum from last season. They are performing more challenging skills and tricks throughout and executing already. I see a Zingali award coming back to Crown. Bold predictions Brass wins, Guard wins, Drums top 3.
  6. Just saw the video announcement and woah! I’m glad they are doing a storyline show again. Something I think will void well for them competitively.
  7. Has anyone heard anything from Spring Training?
  8. I just like the idea of providing more opportunities to young people in a youth activity. Hope we will see this historically accurate aged male on the field this summer. Maybe even hunting a whale. (Obviously Sarcastic).
  9. I think the video was good, I wish they would have used a marching member for the narrator though. Could have been a neat experience for one of those kids while opening up the opportunity of using the same voice during the show if that’s something they are going to do.
  10. I’m just glad they are filling in movement parts this early. A big step in the right direction.
  11. Based on the April camp video. The membership look extremely positive for this point of the season. Take away quotes that made me excited. “This is something that is different for Crown from the past few years”. I hope that means they are going back to a character show. If this happens they may be untouchable. “We already feel connected”. Meaning the new percussion team is settling in just fine. They looked very similar from person to person already on that video. Really excited about this one. “Everyone was doing double turns during the rifle audition”. Sounds like the guard talent will be through the roof to give them a shot at the guard trophy again.
  12. I’m trying to get excited about the announcement but I’m just not, it seems the design team is so focused on the “ring” that it’s limiting their creative output. I mean, “let’s design a show about the White Whale aka the elusive ring…” just make a good show and if it’s meant to be, then it will happen. But forcing a square into a circle will never work in the end. The man in the announcement video also was an interesting choice. White Whale Meaning: Something that someone pursues obsessively and with little chance of success. At least we will hear some Bernstein, that’s my positive take away.
  13. Anyone see them live this past weekend? Any information?
  14. I think you are right about Bloo remaining in the top 3. And I think Brass will also be between BD and Crown, both solid programs and will come down to overall design and presentation of the specific sections. Not sure Troopers can pull it off two years in a row. But maybe I’m wrong. Is there a world where Crossmen and Blue Knights both get in? Meaning Troop is out? Perc I think goes away from Bloo and maybe back to BD? This will be interesting to watch now that SCV is out. Guard has been going to BAC, but I was really impressed finals night with Crown I wouldn’t be surprised with a change here, or at least more pressure on BAC. BD is always a solid contender as well.
