  1. I could add about three dozen shows but will mention three. 1992 Santa Clara. Always loved when the corps performed "Fiddler". 1985 Suncoast Sound. "A Florida Suite" is wonderful music performed by a great hornline. 1988 Blue Devils, Or Gray Devils. One of my favorite horn books and shows,
  2. Can't wait to see this again at the W/S TOC next Sunday. Really like the new ending and glad to see that the trumpet sprint to the stage is gone.
  3. I was wondering if anyone was going to mention this.
  4. Wouldn't it be great if the Cadets did a good old fashioned color presentation?
  5. This is my thought on the stage exactly. It is a distraction that takes away from the rest of the corps.
  6. I'll go with the 1993 Freeleancers. Maybe not the best but one of my favorites. My next favorite is 1996 Pioneer. Again this probably doesn't answer the question of best but this is one of my favorite shows.
  7. If you happened to be sitting down low the towers really obscured the drill and to me the sound at times. Of course down low in the stadium isn't the best spot to watch drill but it was blocked.
  8. I found the same to be true with volume 2. But I will continue to buy the current blu-rays as there is, to me, a big gain in quality over the DVD (as there should be).
  9. In an emergency you could fix a rotor on a bugle. Drumming Execution and Exposure.
  10. Maybe it's a Texas Cage match for DCI supremacy between Arnold and Hopkins.
  11. Suncoast 1985!!!!!!!! Love it. Always have and always will.
  12. I agree. I had waited along time to hear "Elsa's" on the field again.
  13. I agree with the comment of the horns being miked and seeing the show live. It's 100 times more effective live and FN doesn't begin to capture all that is going on.
  14. I love "Cabaret Voltaire". Sat 10 rows from the field at the TOC in Charlotte and was just blown away by the horn line. Quite possibly my favorite BD show which was 1988 until this year.
  15. Probably a little late to respond to a thread started six years ago but I had a tape of the Concord Pavilion preseason performance that was fantastic. Solo work for BD was excellent. Freelenacers were on there too and I loved their 1993 show.
  16. In the '60's my parents would take me to senior shows being held in western PA. I remember very little of those shows except I enjoyed them. In 1975 the General Butler Vagabonds came to my hometown and did two run throughs. To this day I love their '75 show. Later that summer I attended the American International which had Madison, SCV, Etobicoke, Kilties and the Royal Crusaders and many others. But the corps I saw that day that really grabbed me was the Phantom Regiment. Been a fan of the activity ever since.
