I LOVE Pioneer's show this year!
Interesting story...I brought a friend to the Madison show the other week who knows nothing about drum corps. I didn't tell him anything about the different corps going into it or what to expect or who's the "best" or anything. I was really curious to get his impressions from an outsider's viewpoint.
After scores were announced, he turned to me and said, "I don't understand. Why did Pioneer come in last in World Class? They had the best show!"
Now granted the man has no musical background whatsoever and probably can't tell much about the differences in ability between corps, I thought it was fascinating that he was the most entertained by Pioneer. He had Pio and Cavaliers tied!
Pioneer has a lot to be proud of this year and people are definitely taking notice. I can't wait to see how the rest of the season unfolds!
I'm hoping to make it to Naperville. I really want to see the new uniforms in person!
Good luck, Pio!!!
