shofmon88 Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 2001's "Late Night Jazz" is not only my favorite Crossmen show, but one of my all-time favorite DCI shows to listen to. 1 Quote
barigirl78 Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 The 90's Crossmen are always going to get a lot of love, but I want to give a shout out to the early 80's corps like 80 and 81. They were thoroughly entertaining and had one of the best screamers who ever played DCI (Gary Caffrey). Some one recently put a video up of the 81 show on "1980's Drum & Bugle Corps" Facebook page and it brought back memories. 1 Quote
the hammer Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 My top 5 favorites..... 1. 1992 - without question. One of the best percussion books ever. It was hellacious! 2. 1991 3. 1980 - Gary Caffrey gets lost in the Jerry Noonan discussion. He could wail! 4. 1981 5. 2002 Top least favorites..... 1995, 1996 - could not handle the shakos 1 Quote

Still years later, that show is INCREDIBLE!!! The percussive groove Thurston wrote underneath basically the entire show is just tasty. Then there's the percussion feature...pure groove and aggression (I mean seriously, how many high school band students stood behind a marimba and tried to get that mallet part down to start that whole thing)!!! Then the ending with the question mark, and one of the very few "fan screams" that wasn't just stupid..."Crossmen drumliiiiiiiiiiine" then then *ding* 1998- The opener was cooking, and the whole show was "toe-tapping" fun. 2012- Because Crossmen were BACK!!! It was one of the only times I ever cried because of a drum corps show. Sitting in the stands that night at Finals, and knowing that they were back, and feeling the energy from the members, was amazing (I still think the Semis run was a bit better, IMHO). one note...the Crossmen drumline wasnt happy with the scream. they kinda went looking to see if they could find them Quote
