DCI World Championships Semifinals - 8/1215


Recommended Posts

No! I agree the Bluecoats will likely win, but don't even start with the "They are head and shoulders above everyone else" BS. There is a reason the top three have been close all year because it's just that..they are CLOSE. This is the reason I have hated the Bluecoats all year, their show is honestly boring, repetitive, and simple. They perform at a very high level, they are undoubtedly in the top 2 this year but don't act like there is a 4 point gap between them and second.

"Boring, repetitive, and simple...." Yeah that must be why they are winning.

"A percussion judge walks into a saloon...." :tongue:

Corrected for accuracy...

A question about corps' pre-show announcements....

Has anyone else noticed that Mr. Crocker announces the Cadets differently?

For any corps not from the state of Pennsylvania: "Drum Corps International is proud to present...."

For The Cadets: "DCI is proud to present..."

And last night, he didn't show title, either.

A trivial thing to be sure - not looking for black helicopters on the horizon, not forming any conspiracy theories. I simply find it curious if anyone else has noticed.

I wondered about that. And I'm sure I'm OOL, but I wondered if the Cadets had changed their title (again).

"A percussion judge walks into a bar...." :tongue:

"...and 6 hours later, jumped into his car with the rest of the DCP'ers there, and sped off to the competition."

(NOT an indictment of percussion judges everywhere...just providing a punch line. I'd say the same thing about a brass, visual...heck, any judge. DCP'ers? We'll leave that unsaid. :silly: )
