Looking at that list, it's been a pretty great decade for the Green Machine: 5/10 Championships, 9/10 (so far) Top 3 finishes. Plus, they pretty much redefined the activity from a design stand point during this decade. I don't LOVE all of these shows, but I definitely love what Cavaliers brought to the table all of those years from a design and/or performance stand point.

I'll be in the minority on 2009.

For me, the Cavaliers in this decade have had two mid-blowing shows (2002,2003).... I have such high regard for these shows because I think they were the ones that really elevated my level of fanaticism for drum corps. Before I saw these shows, I was really just a casual fan..... after.... I was hooked for life. :shutup:

So my rankings:

1.2002

2.2003 (these two really are about tied for me.... give 02 slight edge because of performance level)

The next 7 shows are all really close for me. I love each one of them, and truthfully could put them in any order.

3.2008

4.2001 (I seem to like this one better than most)

5.2000

6.2004

7.2006

8.2007

9.2005

Sadly, for me closing out the decade is by far my least favorite Cavaliers show since probably 1997. I still really like the show (and maybe I'll like it better after next week), but it doesn't seem to have the same engagement as the rest.

This is a tough one cause I love alot of the Cavaliers shows from the '00's...

1) 2001- Love this show, it just spoke to me I guess....

2) 2002- Probably the best Cavalier corps of the decade...

3) 2006- Machine Drill best ever!!!!

4) 2004- James Bond was very well done!!

5) 2003- Liked it alot.... just not enough to put it above the others...

6) 2000- Niagra... kinda a forgotten gem... And the last show to win with G Bugles, right?

7) 2009- To me a sizeable gap is between the top 5 and bottom 5...

8) 2008- Was just ok for me...

9) 2007- Not a big fan of the show...

10) 2005- Was very unispired compared to the other Cavies Masterpieces...

I didn't realize how much I liked the Cavaliers until I started putting these shows in order... weird. This list was probably the hardest for me, because a lot of the shows were really on the same level for me.

1. 2003 - Spin Cycle

2. 2002 - Frameworks

3. 2000 - Niagara Falls

4. 2001 - Four Corners

5. 2009 - The Great Divide

6. 2006 - Machine

7. 2004 - 007

8. 2008 - Samurai

9. 2007 - And So it Goes

10. 2005 - My Kind of Town
