Southwind 2000
I know Troopers coming back was emotional for many, but Colts 2009
It's pretty crazy that 2000 Southwind finished top 12 in every caption at semis yet still finished 13th overall.
My votes would go to
1991 Spirit
2013 Troopers

I did have some issues with marching members looking for open seats on Friday and Saturday. Here is what I don't understand...every marching member had a cell phone on them. Go to the ticketmaster website and look at the seat map for semis or finals. Find an unsold seat. Go sit in it. I understand it's not going to be a "good" seat, but at least it's an unoccupied seat. Technology should make this process easier and less intrusive.

Ironically, my Roku has been nothing but stable compared to other methods I've used to watch FloMarching. Are you using the streaming stick or one of the boxes?
posted from the DrumScorps app
Roku Express. Been streaming Netflix and other services through it for 36 hours with no issues. The feeds on an iPad have been perfect for me. Thinking I may switch back to that at the first intermission.

Watched previous shows through the FloMarching website on an iPad with no issues at all. Just got a roku box and am streaming today through the FloMarching roku app...and the feed is freezing every 45-60 seconds.

Genesis is a great addition to World Class. All 25 shows at semis on Friday are going to be solid.

I thought Ritual Fire Dance was one of the tunes that was nearly impossible to get copyright permission for...

It's weird seeing these uniforms and not hearing music from "The Godfather"

What type of shoes is Gold wearing? Are they brown or bronze?

Also, Pioneer did not play Gary Owen as they trooped the stands.

I believe we all know what Pioneer is all about.
Really? Would you like to tell me what my 5 years of marching Pioneer was all about. 5 of the best years of my life.

Pioneer
1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998

The end of 92 VK was pretty crazy. The crowd was very loud...then the shark eats the fat lady and the crowd on the recordings gets noticably louder.
1992 as a whole was a good year for crowd reaction. Madison, SCV, Cavaliers, VK, all had excellent crowd reaction.

If the revoking of scholarship monies is in the Crown contract, I see no problem with Crown attempting to get that money back. To be clear...I think this policy is a bad look for Crown or any other corps that attempts to get back "scholarship" funds.
Maybe for 2017 Crown should add to the contract that the estimated cost to feed, transport, educate, and house a Crown member is $3,000 above the member dues and if a member chooses to March elsewhere in 2018 they will be asked to pay that money retroactively to Crown. If it's in the contract the kid has to pay...correct.
This just makes me wish Pioneer would have had a stipulation like this....they could be rolling in dough.

How about all original music by Gordon Goodwin??? Just a shot in the dark guess...

So, we have the Columbus Crew, an apparently pretty good team. You're saying Crew stadium would be a good venue? Interesting. Maybe as an alternate venue...
They have had shows in Crew stadium before. I was there in 2007 where I got to yell "EUREKA" in the middle of Vanguard's show and everyone turned and stared at me.
They may have had a show there in 2003 or 2004 as well. I remember seeing Capital Regiment perform in Crew Stadium. It's an awesome venue for a show. I would say in the top 5-10 places I've seen a show..and I have attended A LOT of shows. Great sight lines, great acoustics. Would love for them to put a show back in Crew Stadium.

If you're looking for someone to cue every single cymbal crash in the pit, you have to go with Al Go, Blue Devils 1992. If you've never watched that show and watched him, do it. Now. It's amazing.
The 1992 BD drum majors had 10 letters between their two names...Al Go and Dan Ray. That has to be a record.

Nothing like poaching the feeder corps ranks for your new leadership. Yikes.
You want good, smart teachers. Who cares where they come from? You would want someone less qualified from Crowns staff than someone more qualified from BDB? Methinks you should care more about the job someone does and less about where they come from.

Glassman had G-West. I always assumed they owned that.
I also learned drill at the Star of Indiana facility in IN. I believe it was a converted elementary school.

Pacific Crest is good. Wish the whole show could have been Pat Metheny...rather than the awesome 30 seconds we got at the end of the show.

True. They had to miss at least one season but in coming back had a Div. 1 size corps. But they could not return as Div. 1; had to be in Div. 2. They cleaned up in Div. 2 and made finals. This was actually 2003, though.
It was 2002. Magic also made finals in 2003 but the year they were division II was 2002.

Is this the best Cascades ever? I liked the 2002 show that made finals (and Myron Rosanders drill) but I think the 2016 corps may be better.

I wish the male guard members coats were blue....they would look just like 93 Blue Knights corps members.
