DCI World Championships Semifinals - 8/1215


Recommended Posts

Madison never changed a thing in that show. It was a mess all summer. I love the music but it was way to choppy. And Lady Gaga didn't help.

Just passed by a very tan young blond man on the upper deck concourse crying his eyes out. Guessing he is a Scout.. really heartbreaking to see :(

Yah. That's the hard part of the activity. I'm glad to have done something with my computer that will allow me to enjoy the outstanding performance these young men can be proud of the rest of their lives.

Just a really weird ending. They have some great things going in this show. The guard styling is outstanding, and the dancing is as good as it gets. Just not a very well conceived show; Feels like it just...stops.

If I had to explain to my coworkers who know nothing about drum corps why I had to leave early to watch this " streaming thing" I would show them the Academy's show and say...that's why.

I had to explain to my co-workers why I was staying at my desk to watch at work when everyone else was leaving.

Man, do the Boston Crusaders know how to put on late season surges. They could have packed it in after being in 14th, and so far behind the Madison Scouts in 12th at the San Antonio Regionals, but there is no quit in them. Just no quit.

What an inspiring effort from BAC. They EARNED it tonite, as that performance from them was their best of the season. Just when it was needed.

Congrats to Academy. Well deserved Finals. What a wonderfully designed & fun show

If there is a better 13th place Corps in DCI history than than the 2016 Madison Scouts, I don't know who that might be. Its regrettable that only one of the great trifecta Corps of BAC, Madison, Troopers could make it in this year. Any 3 could have done it . But Boston stepped up to the plate and hit it out of the park earlier tonite to nail it down, imo.

These are the scores from the Pasadena show (my one live show this season). If you had told me that night which of these corps would and would not be Finalists, I would have never believed you. Wow, just....wow.
