I guess I'd be considered "old school" or at very least OLD, but here's my list:

(in no particular order)

Bridgemen - pimp walk and attitude

SCV - Bottle Dance & Fiddler

27th - Danny Boy

Kingsmen 1972 - a great 1st DCI Championship show

Blue Devils 1976 - so incredibly smooooooooooth

PR - chevron wedge

Scouts 1975 - has any one ever made a crowd sit up in their seats like the Scouts did with Slaughter

Scout 1995 - the definition of a great drum corps show

Cavies - Gaines' drills transformed the whole activity

Garfield - Redefined drills in the 80's

Madison Scouts 97 guard fight on turning drumsets, and pic at end by DM

Watching video of 99 Colts DM, and she is directing through the tears of emotion. Chokes me up every time.

And possibly the most emotional moment of drum corps I have experienced, in 2002, when the SCV alumni corps performed. Several times they hinted at the bottle dance, and the crowd would go nuts, and when they finally did the bottle dance....WOW. Maybe the most emotional I have ever seen a crowd. More people crying at a show than I have ever seen before. This may possibly be the best drum corps moment I have ever witnessed.
