rkfdPRphan Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Whosever performs second to last.... that will be decided later tonight when they average all the scores... it will probably Cavies again. Why 'second to last'? Seeing its a championship caliber show - wont it be the show 'winner' who comes back to the field and plays the encore?

That is how it works now. It has to do with logistics. The second to last corps gets to rest and regroup while the last corps is going on and then take the field for the encore right after the last corps performs. Since they do the encore before the scores now the performers need that time to get their energy back. This way you don't have to wait for the last corps to rest and regroup and then do their encore and then do the scores.... it shaves about a half hour off of the evening for everyone involved to do it this way.

And I've gotta say I love this new encore system, though I trust Finals will remain as it has :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steeldrum Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Maybe the group pictured in this news article about the "best Drum and Bugle Corps in the South" in the Atlanta Access online paper will be playing the encore. They may be a local group. http://www.accessatlanta.com/atlanta-events/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
