CrownsSweetheart

Star of Indiana. Though I never really knew of them until this year (when I learned everything I know about drum corps) I am fascinated by their history!

Great review, thanks so much! Go Crown!

Do they come with plane tickets? :P

:spit: *falls over in shock*

(nor do I remember South Carolina winning the national championship recently...but that may just be me...) Actually, this is tough because I've been a Buckeye all my life and I am now a Gamecock!

i feel your pain on the cleveland teams...been an indians and browns fan for life, it's not easy! especially not in va!

Awesome review---thanks! :)

Thanks for coming out and saying that Crown should be ahead of Boston. I still don't understand the logic the judges are using there. Glad to hear that someone who obviously knows a lot about drum corps sees it too! :) Thanks for an overall wonderful review! Much appreciated! ^OO^

I'm not sure if this has been addressed yet or not (I just can't keep up with all the topics and posts!) but it seems to me that the scores were a little skewed from Friday to Saturday. I suppose that judges aren't supposed to be biased, but what does everyone think? Did they succeed?

I'm certainly not taking sides here because I don't follow the technicalities of drum corps, but I just wanted to point out that everyone seems to be saying how much Crown is hurting themselves etc... by having the amps, so I just wanted to point out (thanks to an observation made to me by a Crown guard member) that in Allentown, the amps didn't work and their score wasn't raised because of the lack of amps, or lowered because of their malfunction. Just thought it was interesting...

thanks for the review...loved the side commentary about the food, rain and the little one *awww* :)

Thanks for sharing! They were great! That combined with all the reviews on dcp really makes not being there not as bad! :)

Great review! "If all you care about is who had the tightest paradiddles, diddle your way to someone else’s review – I’m clueless." That was awesome, hilarious yet insightful! I don't know much about the technicalities of drum corps and your review was great! Also, I really enjoyed reading the beginning part about the venue, crowd, and the corps' identities. Thanks for your time and effort! :)

yeah buckeyes! i was thinking the same thing, smurd :) hahaha.
