Drum Corps moments of the decade


Recommended Posts

Phantom Regiment with a brilliant move by show designers to alter the ending of Spartacus in 2008 at the DM podium right before Championships was the signature move of the decade in my opinion. Keep in mind that it is doubtful that in a Title won by a matter of a tenth that Phantom Regiment would have beaten BD otherwise. It was just the inspiration the Corps needed to provide them that extra spark at the end of the year to catapult them to victory.

Is that when they decided to actually kill the DM instead of pretending to kill the DM?

Actually, was this a last minute thing? Or was it planned all along? Just wondering.

Others with more inside knowledge of Phantom's decision will have to chime in on this, Dr. Mickey. I really don't know the answers to this. I only know that it seemed to give the Corps that little extra spark to put that show ( and Corps ) into the winners circle.

I forgot to put Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy from Cadets 2002. That's my single favorite part of any Cadets show, ever.

I'll pick one moment from each year. These may not be what the majority of DCP thinks, but these are the moments that stick out to me.

2000 - SCV "Adagio for Strings"

Still my favorite. It's the one show I carry around on my iPhone and watch from time to time. There are better shows, but this one just makes me happy. Just wish I had a better recording without the #### shout outs.
