  1. To answer your very legitimate question, if there is a tie for 12th, then yes, 13 corps are technically in finals and 13 corps will perform on Saturday night. It has happened in the past and it makes for a kind of a hysterical retreat when all the corps have to smash into less than 10yds each.. it also makes for a long finals night.. but it's worth it.

    Thank you for ansewering my question, i've followed drum corps since 1987 and marched in 1990, but have never seen a tie for 12th in semi's creating a need for 13 finalist spots, so i really wasn't sure, this looks like a possible year to have it happen.

  2. I wanted to take this opportunity to thank the blue devils organization for providing us the minute by minute updates and being so supportive of every corps. This has been a tremendous service to those of us in the east and mid west. This is one of the classiest things i've seen a corps do to accommadate DCI fans nation wide. I hope someone extends this courtisy to the west coast corps next year as all their fans won't be able to make finals either. Again thank you for a great job Blue Devils and GL tonight.

  3. I'm glad to see DCI didn't hold their own rules against Academy. They are allowed to do Limited touring, but because of not doing atlanta, they aren't making them go first, glad they counted the california score for them so the don't go in at a disadvantage, i'd like to see academey in the top twelve cause i always enjoy new faces, but if they don't they have had a great run for first year in division one. Go Academy.

  4. the ballads of coarse aren't as exciting, but can be really nice. Every show has to have some down time, not only for the performers, but the audience as well. If every moment was fast loud and high. The audience would lose interest. The slower more laid back moments in show are designed to make the big moments stand out more and be even more exciting.

  5. Whaa Whaa I can't spend the $ on travel, give me a break, let me go home for weeks and practice. No injuries, no burnout etc. BUT then let me in for the finish.

    News Flash, can't do a DIv I tour, stay in Div 2 until you can do the deal. It's that simple.

    Well, how is Academy not playing fairly. They happened to be good. Would you perfer they continue to spank division 2 and 3 and more then half of division 1. How about we make another corps fold because they aren't ready for division 1 full tour finacially. Futher more, how can you hammer academy when manderins, esperanza, pacific crest, and capitol regiment did the same thing. DCI allows this to allow corps who are competitively ready for division 1 the chance to compete on the proper level. Now before you continue to dazzel us with clever repiortee, please check your facts and let this corps achieve all that is in their reach. Go Academey!!!!!!!!!
