Widge Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Glassmen have gotten it together. Their score is no fluke. They are now executing the ending, and an already good show is now cleaner by a mile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notelvis Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Glassmen have gotten it together. Their score is no fluke. They are now executing the ending, and an already good show is now cleaner by a mile. I saw Glassmen Tuesday night in Salem and felt like the numbers that night accurately reflected the performance. It's the most I've enjoyed a Glassmen show in several years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Anello Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I will be unable to post any updates through this weekend since I will be at Allentown. If somebody else wants to take over for then that would be cool. Also, when's the last time you saw Boston out of the top 12? How about 1972-1998??

Tone Quality Matters Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Hard to believe Boston's score can go down after a week. This is DCI BS Believe it. I really enjoy BACS show but they aren't executing it well. Fan appeal? You are darn skippy! Needs some cleaning? yeppers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GABA Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Hard to believe Boston's score can go down after a week. This is DCI BSHas any other corps score gone down in that time frame??? I think NOT. They must have taken the week off and not practiced. About half the Corps in PC is sick with some kind of flu thing. I heard a few of the guard are/were in the hospital because of this illness. Lots of holes last night. Hopefully they will be healthy for finals. -G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noneofyourbusiness Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Boston in 13th is rediculas....i find it soo hard to believe that since the 23rd of july to tonight they have gone down from an 86.00 to a 84.350...to me i don't see how in over a week of practicing and perfecting things they go down in score...i think its Bull if you ask me... http://www.drumcorpsplanet.com/forums/inde...howtopic=116051 Read the review. A "flat performance" at their own show. Sounds to me like the members are not into the show they've been given at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scerpella Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 (edited) Hard to believe Boston's score can go down after a week. This is DCI BSHas any other corps score gone down in that time frame??? I think NOT. They must have taken the week off and not practiced. If you go into the scores and statistics section and graph the scores you see that the corps have very few instances of retrograde scoring the entire summer. I checked most of the current top 12 and most of them have 3-4 instances of it. Seems sort of unlikely doesnt it? I dont know which is more bs, rarely having a bad night or continuing to have bad nights even as the show is perfected to the judges suggestions late in the season. In reality where there was actual performance based competition, all corps would experience retrograde scoring early on. Then during the mid summer when changes are being made you might see that problem crop up again. By the very last weeks of the season this would disappear to almost nothing as by now these units are like finely tuned machines. Even so, allowances would have to be made for adverse performance conditions. Two summers ago there was a stifling heat wave and kids were dropping like flies. No matter what anyone says, those kids were not performing as well as they normally did, but you would have never known it from the wacked out scoring system DCI has.

I was one of the guard girls in question sent to the hospital. I was actually sent all the way back to California because of my health. I've heard they are doing a lot for the people who are still there & aren't as sick as I was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
