  1. Other than Star, all of the corps that went by the way-side did so under their own accord. Whether it was due to gross, and I mean gross financial mismanagement or due to substandard performance like this stellar example of DCI greatness: June 29, 1987; DCI show in Terre Haute, IN; Prairie Fire scored a 5.9; that is correct, 5.9. Yep; I sure was extremely sad when that fine example of DCI greatness folded I tell ya!!! Sorry, but unless we are talking Star, all other corps for one reason or another ‘deserved’ to go away.

    I really don't think Glassmen, Suncoast Sound, Freelancers, 27th Lancers, Velvet Knights, (just to name a few) derserved to go away. Lets not also forget when YEA cut Crossmen loose almost destroying them and Madison Scouts organization cut Southwind loose.

  2. Crown wins on back to back weekends. Are they the favorites going into Indy now? Best year ever. It's a three corps race (sorry Bloo fans ... you haven't placed higher than fourth in quite a while ... not going to happen this year).

    bluecoats almost always gains a place throughout finals week

  3. As a performer you want to hear those screams because it hypes you to want to give even more to your performance. As far as people claiming they don't get excited to their feet anymore, I think has nothing to do with the corps. In general we all become desensitized, especially having experienced a lifetime of awesome shows.
