N.E. Brigand Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Gold Showcase at the Ranch Longhorn Stadium at Rancho Buena Vista High School 1601 Longhorn Dr. Vista, CA 92081 Saturday, July 12 -- 6:30 p.m. PDT Show Site According to the site this is the performance schedule: 6:37 p.m. -- Golden Empire 6:52 p.m. -- Watchmen 7:07 p.m. -- Incognito 7:22 p.m. -- SoCal Dream 7:37 p.m. -- Blue Devils C 8:07 p.m. -- City Sound 8:22 p.m. -- Impulse 8:37 p.m. -- Blue Devils B 8:52 p.m. -- Vanguard Cadets 9:07 p.m. -- Gold Is SoCal Dream (a DCA corps) really performing? In a normal season they would, but earlier this year, I thought they said they were taking a year off, and I see nothing about tonight's show on SCD's website or Facebook page. And yet, Gold today posted to their Facebook page that "all ten Open Class corps in California would be appearing", even though there are only nine. Very confusing. From the Pressbox does not show SoCal Dream appearing, but times there look suspect, since neither the first nor last corps' time is changed: instead FtP shows Blue Devils C performing in the middle of two intermissions. NWS says low 70s, partly cloudy, light breeze. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.E. Brigand Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 For six of the nine corps, this is the penultimate show; their seasons conclude tomorrow. The new corps are on first, despite their accomplishments so far; I hope that doesn't hurt their scores. I'll try a prediction: 66.10 Blue Devils B 66.05 Vanguard Cadets 65.10 Gold 58.90 Impulse 58.85 Golden Empire 48.30 City Sound 46.50 Incognito 44.80 Watchmen 44.35 Blue Devils C We shall see! The show doesn't start for another two hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.E. Brigand Posted July 13, 2014 Author Share Posted July 13, 2014 Scores! I got the order of the top six right, at least. 1. 68.55 -- Blue Devils B 2. 67.70 -- Vanguard Cadets 3. 62.65 -- Gold 4. 58.05 -- Impulse 5. 57.60 -- Golden Empire 6. 50.90 -- City Sound 7. 49.55 -- Watchmen 8. 48.15 -- Blue Devils C 9. 45.05 -- Incognito Nice improvement, Watchmen. Six points above your previous show. (Gold did the same thing, but they're much more experienced.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
