jaybrab07 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 (edited) As we all know most of Carolina Crown's staff since 2003 are former members and staff of Star of Indiana. Is the success of Star of Indiana a way to predict the success of Crown in the past and the future. Start of Indiana: Carolina Crown 1985-10th Place 2003-10th Place 1986-8th Place 2004-7th Place 1987-7th Place 2005-7th Place 1988-7th Place 2006-8th Place 1989-6th Place 2007-6th Place 1990-3rd Place 2008-4th Place 1991-1st Place Champions 2009-? Could this be the year????? 1992-3rd Place 1993-2nd Place So could this be the year that Carolina Crown takes the gold for the first time (which it's starting to look like they could just do that.) Based on the results of Star of Indiana it looks like this could be Crown's year. What do you think?

behold888 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Yes, they def could. Glad I wasn't the only one seeing the connections between the two corps. And HEY, good for them. I just hope it doesn't mean that they'll be extinct anytime soon. Even if they were though, at least they left a great legacy behind.

Lance Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Brass sound similarity is undeniable. A VERY good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilme861 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 I think it would be a big coincidence! But not one I would be complaining about at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euponitone Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Since they are actually the same corps, just with different uniforms, they will all be disqualified for being almost 15 years overage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feathers Up Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Brass sound similarity is undeniable.A VERY good thing. Lance, I guess I'm one of the few people who really don't "hear" it. Star had my favorite hornline year in and out. Crown has had my favorite line the past few years. I do feel they are close in comparison, but balance wise I still prefer Star. Star's bari/euph lines could balance their strong contra sound. I've only heard Crown live a few times this year and the tubas just overpowered the bari/euph line each time. They still sounded great, but just not like Star IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
