Contra94 Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Stanford better be on their list. Wonder if they'll do what BAC did and start the season out here with final camps. I would be in full support of them coming out west for spring training! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 I would be in full support of them coming out west for spring training! The corps has already stated they will begin camp in their home region and head West early and stop along the way to continue their camp. A way to break up the 2,500 mile trip.

Ghost Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 If they are going head to head from the beginning and have similar quality shows, come Allentown and Indy, the excitement will be fever pitch. Boston competed against BD only twice while in the West this year. If BD has another 24 or so shows this year, CC might also meet up with them only a couple of times in Cali.

Tim K Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Boston competed against BD only twice while in the West this year. If BD has another 24 or so shows this year, CC might also meet up with them only a couple of times in Cali. That's right. BD did very few shows early in the season, so few they were off the DCI standings for a couple weeks, which made some DCP posters ask "What happened to the Blue Devils." Personally I felt that BD competing in fewer shows and spending the time perfecting "Cabaret Voltaire" gave them the advantage over Crown who competed more in the early season but had less rehearsal time. Whether they compete each night or only a few times, a few early season match-ups will make things exciting. P.S.: With your BAC connections, assuming CYO Nationals Tribute will be in July and East Coast Classic will be in August, do you know if they'll be in Lawrence since CYO would be impossible or do we have to wait till November when DCI posts the tour schedule?

Ghost Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 (edited) I believe your wait until November thought TK is correct. Can't recall if they competed in all three in 2011. Edited October 18, 2012 by Ghost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if you are asking about BD or Boston, but I'll assume it's BAC....in 2011, BAC WAS in all the New England World Class shows, including Bridgeport, CYO Nationals, and Lawrence, all of which they sponsored, and the Beanpot in Beverly which they didn't sponsor. I would assume that since they are returning to the New England move-in this year (probably some combination of New Hampshire and Quincy like they've done for years), BAC would be at these shows again....

Schickmeister Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 This is good news. Hopefully this will make BD doing their first show before like Allentown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Photographer Jim Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 1350564430[/url]' post='3223713']Boston competed against BD only twice while in the West this year. If BD has another 24 or so shows this year, CC might also meet up with them only a couple of times in Cali. How many head-to-head competitions Crown has against BD, will be determined partly on Crown's schedule choices. If after the Stanford and Moonlight Classic shows they do as BAC did and travel to the Northwest, they will probably see BD only a few times, as BD traditionally travels south for the series of SoCal shows. If they travel south as well, they should be going head-to-head a great deal more, both in SoCal and along the road headed back east as the Cal corps usually start their eastern trek from SoCal.

GeneralTsoChicken Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Good or bad, most of the BD brethren I know do not view SCV as a legitimate threat to them, year in and year out. Now that I think of it, they don't seem to worry at all about anyone else. That's probably why they are like they are. That's also probably why they are like they are when someone beats them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
