HockeyDad Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 1992 Cadets "To Tame the Perilous Skies." Too bad Cadets didn't make finals after that. (Go back and read the OP). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tad_MMA Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Yeah, I'd go with VK '92. I'm trying to find a more rabid audience response DURING a piece of music when Brunhilde was chomped by the "alligator" (RIP, Curt Gowdy) right on the downbeat of the chord resolution. Sheer brilliance. Tangent: in modern times, who would have ever thought that a corps like the Glassmen, a TOP-FIVE team, would be gone? Which top-five corps (current or past) will possibly be the next to go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fran Haring Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Blessed Sacrament Golden Knights ...... 1972 ( if we include all history, one of the most Title winning Junior Corps in all of Junior Corps Drum Corps history ) Great corps for many years.... but they never made DCI Finals, as per the topic title.

Jurassic Lancer Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Since I now have the concept, I will go with 1974 Anaheim Kingsmen. If the season were a couple of weeks longer, they just might have won that year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perc2100 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 SCV 1992. I know that season was fraught with issues with that corps, but they really brought the attitude to their Finals show. That + 'Clowns' after retreat = one of my all time favorite memories as a fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tesmusic Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 SCV 1992. I know that season was fraught with issues with that corps, but they really brought the attitude to their Finals show. That + 'Clowns' after retreat = one of my all time favorite memories as a fan SCV has been in finals every year since 1992, so it was not their FINAL finals performance.

paulie1340 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 The sad thing, for those of us that weren't around, or weren't paying attention way back when is that we may never be able to go back and "look up" the '07 Colts, '72 Anaheim Kingsman or the '92 Velvet Knights in order to understand what you're talking about. If I wanted to see what was so great about any of these corps, I could not. Essentially, DCI history is gone, buried but for the memories of the diligent old-timers here. I'd love to know more about the history of DCI, but now, there's no way I could ever study it. Does anyone have any real information on... is there any real work being done on bringing back the DCI fan network video archives? Or, realistically , is this gone forever? p 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A process that may take months or years? Yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
