PR ROCKS

I think the "selections from past years" on the concert ad probably refers to the fact that they will play additional music from past years that is not from the actual 2017 production.

Yep, over the last 15 years Cavalier's average score is 96.20 and Phantom Regiment's is 93.95.....total annihilation by 2.25.

Speaking honestly as a definite PR homer, there would have been no shame in placing below the Blue Knights, who put out an amazing product. I liked PR better, but I already told you I am a homer and definitely know that BK was a great corps this year... my favorite show from them since 1994. DCI and the fans all benefit when BK is soooo strong. Best of luck for continued success and keep pushing out great products. Truly believe they have their ducks in a row.

I think the corps was really let down after quarterfinals on Thursday- they were ahead of Cadets on the previous Sunday and came out in quarterfinals barely in 6th and several points behind Cadets, and things just got worse mentally for the Corps after that. 8/9/92 Blaine, MN Phantom Regiment 93.7 8/14 Quarterfinals 92.1 Cadets of Bergen County 93.1 95.3 Crossmen 90..0 91.5 Freelancers 81.0 Sky Ryders 80.9 Colts 75.4 Dutch Boy 75.1

The seats in the sections on the home (concert) side are numbered right to left as you face the field, so if you get tickets in section 1SS, for example, the rows have 23 seats - you will be closer to the 50 yard line if you get seats closer to #1 than you would be with seats closeer to #23.

I thought only the first four minutes of the 1987 show used music from Swan Lake.

Semifinals starts earlier now because there will be 25 corps competing instead of 17...second year in this format.

PR's correct score 87.9.

Thanks for the correction about drums...I was wrong there. Where did you see full panel tomorrow? I have seen two lists and they were both 5 judge panels. Just asking, I would like to know who is judging.

Akron is not a full panel, and drums were judged tonight. Check the recap again. Good start for the Bluecoats.

The answer is to HINT!

Whether it was that Phantom Regiment had a bad show or was simply underscored at quarterfinals in 1996, the result was that they came away that night both p_ _ _ ed off and more determined than ever. Blue Stars was a great corps, good enough to be a finalist. Problem was that 12 other corps were as well. It was the opinion of the judges on Friday that Crossmen made a better case to be in finals overall. It is always a matter of opinion with judges, but it is not a matter of a corps being screwed, discriminated against or picked on. By the way, the Blue Stars membership that I saw after they learned that they had missed finals handled the result with a lot of class and dignity.

Thanks for the notice and the hard work.
