thecadet20012001 Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 I get so sick of the band wagon and want to be drum corps people who never marched who think the blue devils are the standard of drum corps knowmatter how many times the cavies or cadets beat them. I attribute that to dci because they market them more than any other corps and anyone who knows anything or marched along side them knows the bluedevils have easy drill and easy music. The show is the same every year mf for most of the show a couple of loud hits and a trumpet feature and they hardly take a step size over 8 to 5 and make 6 to 5 look like jazz running. The Cavies and Cadets are inovative and march the hell out the shows they do and play way tougher music spread all over the field with tempo changes and very tough timing elements. The Blue devils usually when playing something hard stay right between the 30's. boooring. The last great blue devil show that I have seen was 1996 and even then they did much of the same but at least they played their ##### off. The reason for me saying so much is I am convinced that Steve Calhoun judge for brass in DCI is completely in love with BD especially when they go against Cadets. Every time that guy judges Cadets and BD he always puts BD's hornline on top and lets not forget what happened in 2001 when he decided to roast cadets finals night in brass just to make sure BD would win the average of the three nights. That guy is deff getting music writing gigs or marching band jobs in the fall from some BD alum or staff cause its like clockwork every year.
