Last call to vote in this poll before I tabulate question 1 vs. question 2 to determine the final results.

the answer is Cadets 1987 then everyone else. Seriously - it isn't much of a debate - other than we're talking "Favorite" vs. "Best" :tongue:

Phantom 2010 hands down. The soft ending made yoj feel as though you had taken a journey during the show, ending with you moving beyond "into the light". Pure beauty

Phantom Regiment "Into the Light," because it went so well with the theme, and it's one of the few endings that makes me teary-eyed.

None. Soft endings suck.

A sentiment so strong for you that you felt compelled to say it again, more than a year after you first said it in this thread (on the first page).

If this poll were being redone now (which I don't intend), we'd have to add the 2014 options, like SCV's Scheherazade-redux.

Blue Stars and Madison Scouts also had soft endings this past year.
