If the scores tomorrow night are in the same range on the west coast, then it stands to reason that the corps are just starting the season more polished than they used to (and I bet the farm that this is true).

All shows are so formulaic musically and visually. Unlike I think drum corps should be weirder, but in less stupid ways. More on that thought later. OH! The Crossmen sounded really good! Yay go Crossmen I liked the big drill and your brass is good. :) Vulgar? Ha! That's funny right there. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTNK Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Crown's a monster and the beginning is fantastic. Brass and Sacktig. What were Cadets doing around those pews? what happened? huh I need to see it again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Terri Schehr Posted June 23, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 23, 2017 Can I get this off my chest? I love Crown. I'm a brass player and they make my socks roll up and down.

They are right. You have to divide the total visual and music scores by 2. Edited June 23, 2017 by henry7184 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a really dumb conversation and I really don't know why you're arguing this so hard. You believe corps are unusually prepared this year. Others don't. Done.

Newseditor44 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 (edited) The question I keep thinking might my about is how do you take a show like the Bluecoats and compare it to a show like Crown, and give either of them numbers. To me they're such different monsters. Edited June 23, 2017 by Newseditor44 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was, but I was getting 20.85 as Bloos visual score for some reason. Not sure what my brain thought there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
