Oooh love it! Subtle and classy.

The pettiness is real with y'all. It's easy to forget that these KIDS are performing their ##### off, dedicating their lives to an art form to not only better themselves, but to entertain us. In the end, the kids are what make this activity continue, and they keep coming back, so clearly they're OK with the decisions the show and costume/uniform designers are making. So just sit back, relax, and enjoy the show! #quityour#####ing

I like this. They will look great on the field. Also, the grey is a nod to traditional Boston Crusaders.

Congrats! My wife & I are expecting Baby No. 2 in December, so I'm clear for this summer.

I think my only live show will be in Mesa, AZ on July 3rd. Everything else will either be in the theater or PPV.

Oh my god, if I could be there within a 7 hour drive, there would be no way in HELL I'd miss Finals!

This is a sneak peek of last years drums.

It's a PM Party up in here.

Director Mark Richardson was selected as a "Pay It Forward" recipient by a local news channel. Very well deserved. http://www.azfamily.com/clip/13379802/community-pays-it-forward-to-founder-of-drum-and-bugle-corps

So. Anything new here?

I bet these end up wrapped in something to fit the show theme.

Indeed. Less is more in a lot of cases, this maybe being one of them. Cadets have used simple drum finishes throughout the years also, so this choice doesn't surprise me one bit. Keeps it classy.

Wow! Cant go wrong with a silver sparkle finish. Those look great!

I always look forward to this time of year, mostly for the new drum finishes! Have any been revealed yet?

Listening to the source music. I am so pumped for this show!

I actually kinda like the new Spirit uniform, if that's what it ends up being.

Wouldn't that be nice if everything were on Spotify. I don't think it could or would happen because of licensing issues. It'd be nice if DCI had a Spotify like streaming service. I would gladly pay for a subscription to a DCI streaming service.

Not sure if he's been mentioned yet. I haven't been keeping up with this thread, but this was just posted today. Chad Sexton from 311 has been a huge influence since I was young. http://www.fuse.tv/videos/2016/11/clash-of-the-corps-311-chad-sexton-pays-blue-devils-drumline-a-visit

This is exactly why we can't have nice things.

Vanguard 2003. One of my all time favorites.

This is why we can't have nice things.

Yes!!

LOL - One of the schools I teach and arrange percussion for is doing Mars as the opener and Firebird as the closer. But the theme is VERY different... The show is called "Fourth & Goal." We also threw Hymn of Axciom and Power by Kanye West in there. :-)
