So I just arrived a few minutes ago at BAC's practice site and it atarts to pour hard...I see the corps leave the field and head inside...perfect timing on my part...NOT!

Shucks. Did just hear from Hop FB video it is supposed to clear out by five pm so should have show tomorrow night

it's sad late in season if we lose a show day, there are only a handful left

regarding scoring, completely agree, folks should not compare scores from different shows to determine "who is ahead" 

you have to wait until the corps compete together with the same panel and conditions

looks like Boston and Cadets are closely matched right now, for Cadets to hop over Boston they would need to raise their performance captions, brass is improving as well as guard but Percussion has lagged so that could be the difference maker between the two corps

the close competition probably helps motivate both corps members and staff, so I feel it helps drive both corps to their best possible show by next Saturday, a good thing!

Wait, what? Somehow I missed the Clifton show when compiling that list, which was a big oversight. Sorry about that.

  Close enough though.

Are you saying the clifton ahow is cancelled?

I don't listen to idiots that make predictiions about corps when they are not head to head. It is the quickest way to set up for disapointment when they do meet...

Hopefully Boston can get their GE captions up...brass..percussion and guard are all doing phenominal...

I wish I believed this, but how many times does a corps' score ever go down during the season? Regardless of the show or competition? It's very obvious that judges are viewing the previous shows scores and moving all the corps up a tiny bit at a time.
