perc2100 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 So there is a simple way of stopping all this "disagreement" about scores, placements, and predictions.Don't do shows over 2 days, make it a regional, have all of them go on the same day, And it eliminates this whole "They had an extra day or practice, or they were being compared to the shows last night when being judged" Of course, it wouldn't come close to eliminating the "I could hear groups warming-up over the ballad" arguments. Allentown logistically is not a great venue for drum corps. But the fans are great, it's obviously a good show (financially) for DCI, and thus sacrifices are made. It kind of makes the drama going into Finals a bit more intriguing, as these corps haven't all gone head to head since Atlanta (or maybe that's what DCI is going for). Either way, it makes for nice scuttlebutt going into Indy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohwiseone Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Just got back from my DCA show! What did I miss??!?!?!?!?!? Idk, there was something about Crown doing really well, then someone made the comment of There basing it off last nights score, then something about predictions started, and now I'm just confused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newseditor44 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 The reason I am rooting for Crown to win... To silence the folks that say they have shot at anything g higher than 4th place. That would be a great early Xmas present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anniem Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 If you're a Crown fan, then tonights are completely applicable and accurate!If you're a fan of Cavies, Cadets, or BD, then you can't compare different shows! ...That about right? lol. But for the record I'm a Crown fan and I don't think you can compare shows on two nights even with the same judges in the same venue due to human nature/error/whatever you want to call it. Before the shows I heard speculation that the division with the Big Three would be a detriment to CC. Now some people are going to say it was better for CC because they scored so well. It wouldn't have been a surprise for CC to finish second to BD and it wouldn't have been a surprise if they'd finished fourth. Its just that kind of season.

BostonRocks Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Well these scores certainly make the end of the season much more interesting and exciting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajlemm Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 So officially what was the new Crown nugget they were unveiling? Did Tink fly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantombari1 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Vanguard just pulled out the Bottle Dance for their new closer. It'll be better after they clean it. By the way I also predicted this would be put into the show. If anyone knows how to searcH For a topic you created I can find it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
