BlueStainGlass Posted August 11, 2018 Author Share Posted August 11, 2018 #1 in Wisconsin #1 in the alumnus hearts. Went from predicting out of finals to complaining about boots. The alumni bought in and raise their hard hats to you. We may look silly wearing the yellow hat or yellow shoes but we are #### proud. The end crowns the work! Have an amazing finals run! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corps8294 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 If there was ever a time to max out a show; tonight is it. No heroes, nothing new; just go out there, lay it down, and have the best show of the season. If everything falls into place: maybe 7th place, a tie, or finishing within tenths of the Cadets. The season started slow and really started to pick up in mid-July. Again, 7th would be great and the next step up; however, there will be no shame in 8th place, this year. Welcome back to the middle-tier, Blue Stars! Finish strong, enjoy the night, and get a much deserved rest tomorrow! FCO! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corps_Efan Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Watching on flo: Your music is beautiful and well played. Drill is tight and looks great from above. Music by the carpenters performed by carpenters... literal visual translation. Conceptually, not imaginative enough for such a talented group dagnabbit!

corps8294 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 7th place next year, Blue Stars! 7th place! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fran Haring Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 I'll preface this by saying I've been a Blue Stars fan since I first saw them in the early 1970s. Yes, I'm that old. I only caught them once this year... the Thursday prelims cinecast... and throroughly enjoyed the show!!! If drum corps these days is all about a clearly communicated concept... then this show was a winner. I got it from Note One. Well-performed, well-sold. Perhaps the corps should do one of these "building" themes every few years or so. I'm thinking maybe road construction next. I hope the Blue Stars in 2019 can capitalize on the momentum they gathered this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xandandl Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 (edited) They didn't mention that Blue Stars '18 season ended. https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/lowe-apos-announces-store-closures-165800518.html Edited August 24, 2018 by xandandl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Associating the link was sweet. But this little quote from the links says a lot, maybe they should try Roman next. The company, which recently hired Marvin Ellison away from JCPenney (JCP) to be its CEO. Just a real boys club them CEOs are. Didn't feel like cod today anyway Edited August 24, 2018 by Bluzes typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
