Sorry, I thought all of the judging was subjective... my bad.
-
Unless *insert favorite corps here* scores *insert number here* it's the fault of those darned judges...

A question... is Lupo's still there? great cheap food and drink before the show

I miss Lupo's

OT: Has anyone seen a show at the Columbus Crew stadium before? Thinking about going down there tomorrow night.
Thanks!

Thanks for the link!

I liked Crown's arrangement of 'Watermark' better, but this is nice
-
The DM for the Blue Stars does need some super glue for that plume, though

If you're looking for deep meaning in a drum corps show, your 'education' has taught you nothing. Smirk and nod to the academics, for we all know that they're right.

1988 Devils at Allentown, amazing.
1992 Star, Butler, PA... there was a tornado warning, and they played anyway
1993 Star, DCI north at Rich Stadium... the show for how shocking it was, and the encore was even better
1994 Devils, Boston finals.... even though it didn't help the video, the fog that night gave a surreal quality to that show
1995 Scouts at Allentown. 'nuff said.
1999 Devils at Allentown... watching their horns and drums in the afternoon was every bit as entertaining as their show that night

The thing that is absolutely frightening about the Devils... they still have a ton of cleaning to do (as is the case with all of the corps). Crown put on an amazing encore, hats (and plumes) off to ya!
-
Getting a streaming video recorder doesn't hurt, either
-
1990 'Coats and Crossmen show up on the ipod frequently.....
-
Nice salute to the Bridgemen!
-
Good grief... the 'top 12' is more like the top 16-17 these days.
Bravo!
-
Madison performed well, but it's as if the brass arranger and the percussion arranger have never met. I liked it anyway.
-
Done. Hope they can make it through the summer.
-
Blue Devils 1991, Star 1993, Garfield 84 and Madison 90..... None of those shows won, but they really elicit a strong emotional response every time I watch/hear them.
-
So tough to choose between a Giant ###### and a Turd Sandwich.
Or, as Dennis Miller once put it... a choice between hospital food and airline food.

Back to the original post... every activity has 'diversity', but some activities appeal to certain groups. I think that the cost of touring can be prohibitive, and that's why you see certain individuals in world class corps. DCI has changed in that way over the last 20 years, and the performers' abilities are astounding. Lamenting the fact that diversity isn't present is folly.
-
If it's something dear to you, it's tradition. If it's something you don't really care about, it can be interpreted as 'progress' or 'evolution'. Given the fact that the whole activity is based upon opinion, this isn't surprising.
Yay tradition! Yay progress! ... er, hard to define those terms, huh?
