Akron Alehouse


Recommended Posts

Grab a stool by the counter and order your favorite ale! Time to celebrate the first show thread of the season (couple days early I know, but oh well)!

Akron, OH - Innovations In Brass

What are your score/placement predictions? Who will be the strongest out the gate?

Here are mine:

1. The Cavaliers - 74.95

2. Carolina Crown - 73.75

3. The Cadets - 73.5

4. Bluecoats - 69.70

5. Phantom Regiment - 69.35

6. Blue Stars - 65.15

I always make my top 13 corps prediction on July 4th.....but just for kicks...I'll take a stab at predicting the first show of the season....

1. Carolina Crown

2. The Cavaliers

3. The Cadets

4. Bluecoats

5. Phantom Regiment

6. Blue Stars

I'm far from a Bluecoat homer but I think people are overlooking them at their peril. Everything that's leaked on to youtube so far this season has been *really* impressive.

Man this is killing me w00t.gif

So...do you think I could get a good seat if I bought a single on show day? It's only a 6hr drive :-)

After watching the Manny Pacquiao Timothy Bradley fight. I don't trust judges!

1. Cadets- 74.4 -champions bump!

2.Crown- 74.1 -top three ( 4 really ) will be so good judges are just going to guess

3.Cavaliers-74.0 -judges will figure this new scoring out by July

4. Bluecoats- 72.3 -underscored based on last years placement!

5.Phantom- 72.0 -judges will give them a really good guard score

6. Blue Stars-69.8 -will be much better than last year but, judges will place them here.

Looks like plenty of great seats available at the show site. I'm doing the same thing. Bought tickets last week on a whim and driving 7.5 hrs (6.5 to get to my kid's housing site and an hour back to the show). :thumbup:

I think I've finally reached the point where I really don't care about scores. Just give me some good drum corps.

(Except BD can't win. Or Crown.) :tongue::ph34r:

I think i'd be satisfied if Crown won...

1. Cadets -Will start on top but I dont think it will last all season.

2. Bluecoats -People are really underestimating Bloo, they will come out hot!

3. Carolina Crown -Dirty start but will be amazing as usual.

4. Cavaliers -Same as Crown.

5. Phantom Regiment -Usually slow out of the gate but cant wait for Nessun Dorma!

6. Blue Stars - Heard the hornline is lacking and rather dirty. Itll be an uphill climb for them.
