CrownBaritone Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Aerobeds! No one sleeps on the floor anymore...tales of a bygone era. I wish! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fsubone Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I wish! Me too. I just had a sleeping bag my first year in corps, didn't get an air mattress until year 2. Lots of us still sleep on the floor because it's easier and cheaper. Not more comfortable, but cheaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wadep66 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I don't - it's a joke- i was just very impressed with what i saw in context with what I've seen the past 9 years. I'm a Bluecoats FMM, I have 0% fandom in BD, as I've said i honestly love Cadets show and Crown as well... I'm saying I know what a winning BD show looks like and I'd put money on this being one. I've seen every show on FN 10+ times and most live so i have some idea what they are up against. ' You guys are giving me a lot of "I told you so" material for later- and that's cool with me :-) Well if saying "I told you so" really makes you happy, then go for it!

g00fyg00ber Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 (edited) Didn't know this was a webcast until earlier this week, I thought the next one was Sunday. Brightened up my day! Excited for some multi-camera action tonight as well. Edited July 26, 2013 by g00fyg00ber 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadet93 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 is BD definitely doing the lit poles? I guess I wonder how effective that would be in an indoor stadium that is lit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrownBariDad Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I was under the impression the performance order was changed for each of the TOC contests? Was this by picking out of a hat? Or, a specified rotation? I looked at the performance order for each of the 7 TOC shows. There are 7 corps and each gets to perform in a different show position for each show. Example: Crown has performed/will perform in position 3, 5, 2, 6, 1, 7, 4. Also, the orders are randomized from show to show so you don't always have one corps continually following the same corps, as you would if you just took the first show order, moved the last Corps to perform to first, and bumped everyone up a spot. Finally, it looks like "home" shows have the home corps going on last. I hope I've explained it OK (at least that's how I understand it). I'm VERY surprised (or very blind and might have missed it) that someone hasn't posted the current TOC "standings" given the formula DCI is following this year in awarding the TOC "trophy" at the end of the series. I would, but hey--I gotta a day job I need to get back to in order to support my Drum Corps habit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
