'78 '82 ' 92 '97 2005 ( and they didn't even make Finals this year... but I still loved the show/ music ) Least Favorite.... there were only a couple.... but 2013 stands out... " Protest " I was a lead bari in '05. The pre-edited / pre-watered-down versions of Drew Shanefield's arrangements were amazing! (I would die to find a recording of the classical gas fugue that got axed)... The winter camps were packed with energy... it was a running joke that the '05 Crossmen peaked in May... Regardless, I'm glad you enjoyed that show, we worked our tails off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbeau Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 1992 , just great drum corps. 1997 , Xmen were on fire that night and topped the Cavies on pure energy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything looked really close together, and they never really, as the great Bruce Dickinson would say, "explored the space." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Ream Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 i'd like to go on Record that the 2010 First Circle show was the most disappointing Crossmen effort ever......and I don't blame the kids one bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two corps that were more successful with similar concepts, in my opinion, were Bushwackers with "The Resistants" in 2014 and especially Cavaliers with "Propaganda" in 2016. The best part about "Protest" was the coda. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway I suppose it was a fruitless search since he made it back to the bus unscathed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
