Best DCI Opener Ever


Recommended Posts

There was this opener The Cavaliers did in 1983. I don't remember the name.

Yeah. I think I know the one you're talking about. The composer slips my mind, though. Man! Who was that?

I'm sure many of you have your favorite openers of all-time. Would love to hear which ones I should put on my playlist for a road trip I am about to take...

Here is my favorite:

'92 Cavaliers (Gavorkna Fanfare)

Here is my favorite homer corps opener:

'91 Bluecoats (Nutville!!!!)

1974 Hawthorne Muchachos - Pictures of Spain (can't spell it in Spanish, but it is something like Picturesque es Spain)

I wouldn't by any means say these are the best, but they're cool nonetheless.

Another that came to mind. Carolina Crown's 2001 opening where they drum on the planks of wood/rims/slapsticks/ect was really nifty.

Blue Stars 2008 when they do the bike wheel is cool.

Vanguard 2008, some of the coolest drill on the field, Weber at his best.

That's right!

I was leaning towards Zamfir so I was close.
