JayM Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Dave Carbone has been loving Crown all season long. He put them in first the last 2 times he's seen them. He marched Star. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Directorofbands Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Okay, here goes absolutely nothing: Allentown 7/31 & 8/1 BD Crown HNC Brass Performance - Harper 18.9 18.9 18.8 GE Music - Zimbleman 19.1 19.3 18.7 Ens Vis - Frank Miller 19.3 19.0 18.8 GE Vis - Marie Czapinski 8/2 N/A 18.6 19.0 Perc Perf - Pippitone 19.2 18.8 18.5 (BD on 7/27, Crown and Cadets on 7/26) GE Music - Fugett 18.6 19.1 18.9 (BD on 7/21, Crown and Cadets on 7/26) Atlanta 7/25 Music Ens - Carbone 18.6 18.7 18.5 Vis Perf - Chumley 19.3 18.4 18.6 San Antonio 7/18 GE Vis - Costanza 18.3 17.7 18.4 Only head to Head scores were used (with the exception of Perc Pef and Fugett GE Music) and only scores from San Antonio to the present. There are no CG scores because I didn't find Lee Carlson judging CG, although he has, of course, judged in other vis captons. Discuss.

There are no CG scores because I didn't find Lee Carlson judging CG, although he has, of course, judged in other vis captons. Discuss. I think the worry for Crown is not how many captions they can catch BD in, but how many they can keep from losing to Cadets. I would not be surprised to see HNC jump them tonight and get real close to BD. I personally think HNC and CC will cancel each other out for the title in their head-on battle for captions. BD will get just enough in Vis Perf., Guard and GE Visual to pull them out. I think HNC has a little better chance with the judges for tonight to win some visual captions. Musically, BD's only spade is the drum line, and JJ could help that if he puts a big enough spread. Otherwise, Music should be close to an overall tie again between BD and CC. I truly believe that if this was only a two-horse race, 2nd would have a really good shot. But with 3 teams, not as much. BD has enough .2 spreads tonight to win a close battle at the finish line. My pick: BD. 98.85 Cadets 98.1 Crown 97.95 Oh yeah... typical of the DCI Visual Caption Heads (Lee Carlson, et.al) to put themselves on the finals panel on a caption they have not judged all season... You wonder why John Phillips lets them get away with that.. First read on Guard at finals for anyone is criminal. HE will likely call it for BD if anyone does..

Directorofbands Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 (edited) Here's what I think: 1) BD will win. 2) Crown will take all music performance captions and GE Music over Cadets. 3) Cadets will take All visual captions over Crown. 4) It won't matter what the number or placement, we will have our favorites. 4.1) Here's to hoping that HD footage translates to BluRay come November. 4.2) Synths and electronic instruments have opened up another door, for better or worse. 5) All drum corps participants, no matter their age, which corps they marched, etc., have worked hard all season to put out the best product for the fans. Thank you and job well done. Edited August 8, 2009 by Directorofbands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
