TubaJon Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Oh, and all time worst show, spanning TWO decades.... "Saved by the Bell". If one can HATE a show, I HATED that show! I'd like to add VK '92 to the list. VK '87-'90 were all much better shows... '87 was my personal favorite and probably the best performed... '92 was good, but not worthy of the "classic countdown" a few years back... I loved Saved by the BELLL!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 '95 Cavies. The worst sop line in any DCI champion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjeffeory Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Personally, I like VK 92 more than 87 or 88. I like 'em zany, and this show delivered. Was it cleaner or better than 87 or 88? Probably not, but it entertained me, and that's what counts in my book. Overrated? Honestly, I haven't seen too many 90's shows outside of 92, so I can't comment on that. Don't get me wrong, I liked '92 too. '92 got on the "Classic Countdown while '87 - '90 didn't. I just thought those older shows were a better representation of VK at its best. Hence, I think '92 was over rated compared to the other years. All of those years were just great though. '87&'90, '92 are VKs best years competitively, so they mush have done something right!

troon8 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Full House. Except the one where Stephanie rams the car through the kitchen. That was awesome! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Ream Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 94 Cavies. Star 93 is over hyped now because people see how it changed the game. BD 97 gets a tad over hyped tho I loved it personally, same for 99. I'll throw Madison 96 in there. tried to repeat 95, but not nearly as good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyDCyanks Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 92 Cavies 92 Velvet Knights 96 Madison Scouts 98 Cadets I find it really hard to find shows to nitpick about from the 90s. It's my favorite decade of drum corps. Them fighting words.. I think that maybe one of the most underrated shows of all time... Still think it was the best drill ever written.

chaddyt Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Them fighting words.. I think that maybe one of the most underrated shows of all time... Still think it was the best drill ever written. I want to agree with you as it's one of my all-time faves, but there were issues with that show. The most glaring being the lead up to the frantic closer. Apparently, the horn line was supposed to be playing along with the percussion but the parts were cut (close enough to finals that not much was put in to replace them). If you listen to it, you'll hear a lot of empty space and exposed pit parts that sound less than stellar. Still an awesome show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notelvis Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Star 93. Medea...... Gotta say that I loved it indoors with Blast. Outside - not so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeN Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 For me, a couple that spring immediately to mind - '98 Cadets - I thought then (and still think now) that Stonehenge is just a terrible piece. '98 Glassmen - in the middle of their "gold" years, I thought this one was, while a more technically proficient corps than the year before, the show itself was just ... meh. Not as friendly as '97 and not as sophisticated as '99. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
