somerville Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 I have a timeshare in Ptown so I missed the show tonight. I do love the cape though. It is hotter than he double toothpicks tonight. But I am on the ocean with a view of the Atlantic right now sipping a wine. I will see the corps when the come back around in August. Boston Rocks. And we are Boston Strong. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrumManTx Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 (edited) Boston topped Bluecoats in guard and were .1 behind Phantom in drums, taking achievement from Phantom. Interesting. The gap to Cadets is a lot smaller as well. Bostons biggest downfall was a 13.9 in Music Analysis.

There captions 16, the rest of the panel 16.5-17.1 Edited July 6, 2013 by newjerseycorpguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrumcorpsmademeaTuba Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 There's some sort of magic seeing a full panel come together like that. Boston looks to have put any bad memories of Akron behind them for good, but the visual analysis subcaptions matching may be a tiny bit worrying at this point of the season, and that I would hope that the 13.9 is indicative of a bad night synching up, or just a cruel judge, and not a permanent weak spot. As always, I've got nothing to say for the Bluecoats and Phantom this year :rolleyes:/> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2000Cadet Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Anybody see Cadets tonight notice any of the changes? Curious to hear what and how they were. I was wondering the same thing. If we don't get any info tonight, I'll be at the show tomorrow in Philly. I'll let you guys know what they changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifer Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 No surprise the gap closed between Cadets and PR. Stone and Torchia never generous with the Cadets. There captions 16, the rest of the panel 16.5-17.1 We counted 3 drops by the Cadets tonight and at least 2 dozen drops by Phantom - and Cadets work is substantially more difficult. Sure the Phantomettes danced really well, but how do you get that score and end up only three tenths behind the Cadets with so many very noticeable drops? There were even times when multiple girls dropped in the same toss and numerous times when the recovery was very noticeable since the sabers went bouncing yards away from the member. We all felt Phantom should have been like a 15.2 and Cadets a 16.5 - someone was drinking the Phantom cool-aid tonight!! Boston was significantly improved but still needs to work on getting the full guard rifle work much more together. Bluecoats have a few guard members who had multiple drops in Quincy, Bristol and Lynn - one girl even had two drops in the matter of 15 seconds. And each show had at least one major missed toss while on the bleachers that garnered groans from the crowd. And they need to either use heavier material or add weights to the silk blankets they use in the picnic scene - the wind tonight caused them to end up as clumps of fabric rather than blankets spread on the ground.

As I said, Stone always buries the Cadets, regardless of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
