zorf Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 The Cabs are the corps to beat this year. I posted a couple years ago that they really seemed on a roll. Looking back at my beloved MBI championship, there is something incredibly energizing to an organization when they come close like Cabs did last year and MBI did in 2010. I won't be surprised to see Cabs on top this year and it makes it all the more impressive what the Buccaneers have accomplished over the past decade. It is a challenge to be the standard bearer and target. All of this is great for DCA. I think MBI will be a challenger. So are a few others who are scoring well. Let's keep this going and get a centrally located mid season show where all corps can compete together. We have been blessed to sponsor DCI Minnesota which for a couple years was the first head to head competition for the top corps in that circuit. (Outside by the way, which is how it should be but that is my personal bias). Wouldn't it be great if we continue to have close competition and then add in a mid season all corps show? I understand the hurdles. But dream big. My hope is that instead of focusing on why not, people will focus on how we can make this happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron H Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) Minnesota Brass 91.25 in Mendota Heights tonight. Govenaires 81.10 This will still put MBI & Govies back a bit in seedings since they do not have another DCA show after tomorrow night's show in St. Peter. I think MBI's weaker spot this year is the horn line. Good sound but they have to crank the volume 200%. Guard is among the best and so is the percussion. Visual is much improved over previous years.

As Matt mentioned, I have been very busy (band camp, drum corps, and a full time job), but am enjoying a day off today and have updated the rankings with all scores from the past two weekends. a 5.65 point jump for bucs after not competing. so it shows that all those people were right and i was wrong. you don't have to compete to get better.
