xandandl Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Nice to read what Hopkins authorized to be posted on the public Cadets web today: After the show The Cadets enjoyed a light snack, in which they were joined by members of The Blue Devils, Carolina Crown, and Boston Crusaders for a night (of) reunions and beginnings of new friendships. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share Posted July 3, 2015 Well, the last time DCI held finals at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, MA, the two big complaints were 1. the cost of parking and 2. the elevator bell. It's good to not read anything so far about last nights East Coast Classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwillis35 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Quite a show last night! Anyone from that top 3 could have received the highest score with no complaints from here. Can't imagine how to judge such a group, when one tenth difference can change so much. I do believe Blue Devils are more vulnerable this season. Cadets are really solid, and Crown has upped its game for sure. Haven't seen Bluecoats or Vanguard. Mind boggling to realize all will improve over the coming weeks! Great post. This is truly how we all ought to see the top 5 for this year. I'm pulling for my local corps to take it all (Bluecoats), but I am enjoying everyone of the top 5. Can't wait to see BD and SCV live. Crown, Cadets, and Coats live is a treat. With Carolina I get my ears blown down and I get powerful classical music and a fantastic guard. With Cadets I get a monster drill package with major demand in the music book and some Shostakovich 10th Symphony. With Bluecoats I get the most modern looking show I've ever seen, great minimalist music, awesome staging, and powerful brass and drums. From the views on DCI Live I'd say Blue Devils are somewhat similar to Bluecoats in design, and SCV is similar to Crown. The Cadets kind of look more traditional with some modernism in the ballad and waltz. At this point any of these corps can win. That is fun. And by the way, I think the competition that is ensuing at the 6 - 15 spots, and even further down, is going to be even more exciting than the top 5. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwillis35 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 With Boston's improvements, they have become my sentimental favorite in the 6-12 group. They might just surprise a few corps as they ascend. And much credit and a BIG shout-out to the Crossmen who are keeping pace with Boston. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRASSO Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 OH NO!!!!! Hop has an ulterior motive to poison all the other corps so Cadets can win!!! Poison is not the preferred choice in DCI Corps. It needs to be sorcery, swords, etc and the like. ( haha!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMcomguy Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Hmm. Interesting how many people called BD dirty and yet they won visual handily. Cadets seem to have the hardest drill and their scores show it. They just need to clean and they'll be in good shape! Let's be honest with ourselves, seeing who was judging visual... we could have easily listed Colorguard 1, Colorguard 2, Colorguard 3 as the captions last night. Is there any attention paid to anything else in the activity seeing the folks who are at the helm? #yeahrightno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
