superOOk Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I marched back in 93/94 with BLOO and have been around for some time. I witnessed '91 Star among many other top brass/horn lines. I was lucky to attend a few practices this year out near Stanford and attended DCI West. I have to tell you -- I truly think Crown's book allows them potentially go down as one of the best brass/horn lines ever. Here is what Crown sounded like on June 30th (early season): . They have significantly improved since then, as evidenced by further clips showing up on both the Fan Network and YouTube.** If you vote "no", please state at least 1 other brass line that you feel is better and, if you can, submit a YouTube, audio clip, or reference piece as evidence. FYI, if you are on the fence about attending finals this year...there is no question that if you miss it, you may be missing a one in a lifetime chance to hear a horn line like this.

DrumManTx Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I think it might be a little bit early to say yes or no for sure, but they're sure on there way to being one of the best ever. So glad I'm getting the oppurtunity to see them twice this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisVT2003 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 This hornline, live, puts be in a constant state of awe. Loud yet somehow not painful on the ears. One word: glorious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soccerguy315 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Right now? no. In August? maybe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeN Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 If they keep improving on schedule, then they would definitely be included in the discussion. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g00fyg00ber Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I think they had a darn good competitor for best ever last year as well. Though this show definitely brings out the skill level and talent of their members a little bit more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rd Glasgow BB Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 There's no doubt they sound amazing but they're not the best ever, that would be the 2012 Crown horn line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeptic Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Likely but cant say for sure until after finals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g0at Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I still think Cadets 2001 is my favorite hornline ever. I'll have to see them live this weekend and see where they end up at the end of the year. I'll vote for best hornline at this point in time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
