Popular Post Spin Cycle Posted June 19, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted June 19, 2012 Sorry to be sensationalist, but WOW ... what in the world did the new staff do to this corps? Even the corporate-friendly hosts of DCI At The Movies were baffled by their show. I know it was "incomplete", but there was nothing I saw that had ANYTHING to do with the Cavies of the past 15 years. I know that all the geniuses of the early 2000s Cavies are with SCV right now (and I hope their show is good), but how could they not find people halfway decent to replace them? YIKES. I'm a big DCI fan and am not trying to insult anyone here, but I just can't believe the product I saw put on the field tonight. I had to come home and watch Frameworks, Spin Cycle, and 007 to cleanse my palate. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaylogan Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) Talk about fairweather. Sheesh...you guys can't give anyone a break for a second. It's all dread and drama. Give them time to adjust. I for one like the show and see how demanding it is. Edited June 19, 2012 by jaylogan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spin Cycle Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) It's June. Did you watch the show from Saturday? This is clearly a VERY different corps, and the show just screams "how do I fill these shoes" via all the new staff. I certainly hope they do well and will always cheer them on, but this was the biggest shock I've had since the first year of amplification. EDIT: Not trolling, I promise. You can merge this thread with the Cavaliers 2012 thread if you want. Just voicing my (extremely disappointed) thoughts. For 15 years the Cavs (in my mid) pushed the art of drum corps to new and exciting places. Last year, with the extended recordings and re-hashes of old moves (notably the "jump over other guys" move at the end) I got a little worried ... and now I'm just dumbfounded.

DCImonkey Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I seem to recall the sky falling when they debuted their 2010 show, but the ended up in 2nd. So....I won't count them out yet 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShouldveMarchedAgeOut Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I was a bit surprised myself, but this is a little crazy. I remember all this happening in early 2010 and then they got 2nd at finals... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
