In 2008, there was a lot of buzz going into finals week even before their surge
And I think there will be some buzz for them going into finals week this year. (Not at all predicting the placement results of 08.)

Been going to DCI Finals for MANY years (maybe too many). This Phantom show is maybe the only one that I think could move up a placement EACH of the 3 nights.
Question is...where will they be ranked going into Thursday?

So I read a few comments that this was not BD's best run...I'm watching and asking how much over 88 do they get? Amazing drum corps AGAIN!

Really enjoyed Mandarins...very strong brass. I can hear some Bloo influences there.
I do have to ask...will we see a member(s) strapped to the prop and it does the rapid spin? Maybe a tuba 🙂

Just saw a post on this...Bands from 13 (THIRTEEN) nations will gather in Buckhannon, West Virginia, July 17-23 for the 2023 WAMSB World Championships for Marching Show Bands.
How many nations will be represented at the Drum Corps INTERNATIONAL World Championships?
Just made me wonder...is it time for a name change? Of course it's really been like that for a while.

Bloo percussion #1. Congrats to Crown on all other captions. Nice to have Spirit back.

Concerning Bluecoats...the YouTube link in first post is for "Bumps Per Minute"...not "Bump" Here's the correct one
-
I looked in THE book for the definition of General Effect and it said "see Bluecoats".

While we wait, here’s a random fact about William Mason High School. Sportscaster Dan Patrick graduated from the school in 1974!
Some additional Mason trivia...Mason has the largest enrollment of any school in Ohio.
This contest is actually run by the Fairfield High School band, but has been held at Hamilton and/or Mason high school for the past few years because their stadiums are a good bit larger.

I think Bloo comes out on top tonight...but there may be some judges who say "thou shalt not"...at least not yet.

I was hoping for a 75th anniversary complete field show (ala Bluecoats last year) from Cavaliers at championships in Indy.

Another year, another post of me saying one of these years I WILL enjoy a Bluecoats show like I did in 2015. We'll try again next year...
Btw, percussion can you chill please. Geez
I believe that should read "Btw, defending DCI Fred Sanford award winning percussion can you chill please. Geez"
