GDinnes Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Wow this will be hard to narrow down to one per corps but here we go. With Devils and Madison being my two fav I'll start with them because they are the hardest to peg down one show. Also I'm most familiar with 89 - 2000 so most show will be from that range. Blue Devils - 92 was great with When a Man Loves a Woman as a closer. Madison Scouts, so many to choose from but 1978 tops the list for me. Nothing like hearing Star Wars and Malaguena in the same year Cadets - Not my most favorite corps but 2000 is the one I'll usually not skip when it comes on. Cavaliers - 1995 Planets, I will listen to this show any time, just an awesome awesome show. Phantom - 1989 Dvorak's New World Symphony. SCV - 1992 Fiddler. Mostly because I was at finals that year so I do like that version. Crossmen 1990 New York Voices. Star of Indiana - 1993 Medea was just amazing. Suncoast Sound - 1989, with '89 being my first year in drum corps I am more biased towards this version even though so many people perfer 85 Crown - 2008, Finis was such a great show VK - 1986 - The Bond show was so much fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kansan Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 (edited) 1984 Blue Devils "La Fiesta" show. don't know the name of the show but that tune rocked. 1985 Velvet Knights "Peter Gunn" 1986 Sky Ryders OZ 1987 Sky Ryders West Side Story 1988 Sky Ryders Sound of Music Took a Drum Corps Break until 2004. 2006 Cavaliers "Machine" 2007 No Favorite 2008 No Favorite 2009 Boston had a kickbutt show 2010 Madison Scouts Back to their roots. I also liked Pioneer's show of Christian Music. 2011 Cadets Heaven and Hell, I also liked Crowns show where the electronics made sense and they still let the Hornline play.
