Slow Adam Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Phantom 2003 doesnt get recognition?!?!? Phantom 2003 is one of the most overrated shows IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notelvis Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 My criteria here would be shows that DID NOT make finals but that I really enjoyed and looked forward to seeing on tour night after night. I've got four favorite underdog shows......in reverse order - Honorable Mention - 1992 Glassmen Bronze - 2000 Southwind Silver - 1987 Florida Wave Gold - 1982 Defenders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boxingfred Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 (edited) 1978 North Star- Power drum corps on par with Madison 1980- Santa Clara Vanguard- Asymetrical drill in 1980 WTF! 1980- Bridgemen Drums! 1983 -Suncoast Sound- What a great show 1985 + 1986 Les Eclipses ( 14th place so close ) 1988 -Blue Devils ( I don't know if they under rated but they were very entertaining) 1991+ 1990-Academie Musicale- The blue print for Star of Indiana 93 1992- Cadets -To Tame the Perilous Skies! 1993- Phantom, Blue Devils and Cavaliers, three great shows 2005 -Blue Devil- So what they said YOWZA! they marched and played with complexity 2008- Blue Knights- Nobody does what BK does. So much demand on the marching member. 2008 -Cadets- crown had a more fan friendly show. Cadets were a better corps.

Michael Boo Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Personal request, but many other would appreciate this if others obliged. I have a list on my computer of all the finalist shows and I've got all the program book stuff I've written, so I can easily look these things up. Still, after many years of drum corps, years blend together, but show titles and repertoires instantly bring recognition. My request is: Please, don't just list a corps and a year. List the corps and the year and include the show title and (if possible) the repertoire. That way, more people will know what shows are being discussed.
