They will surely contribute to spreads in percussion atleast Vanguard, Coats, Devils, Crown, Cavies, Boston... As I said. 6 corps contending. Bluecoats will likely be 6 or 7 in percussion. But of the others, some will also have to be 6... or even 7 in other captions. If Bloo is pulling big numbers somewhere else, then there is a trade off. But the assumption (without proof yet) is that GE is a fight between 3 groups... maybe 4. That could all be wrong though, as we will know for sure in less than 10 days.

Probably finish about 4th in Brass and Guard and 3rd in visual. I can't see how they place higher than 3rd. Crown on the other hand has a higher ceiling and so do Cavies for that matter. This is my assessment as well. Crown was an absolute powerhouse of a corps outside of percussion. This year's Bluecoats is strong, but not as strong across the board as that Crown corps was Edited July 8, 2018 by Cappybara 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm scratching my head too since I thought Cavies guard had an off night. I mean the show started when a rifle tossed 1 count early 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being there myself, I can easily say PR had a pretty bad run. I personally think crossmen and bluestars should switch places Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have 6 corps ever traded captions in contention for the top spot? It's unusually competitive right now (or so it seems). The scores are tight even though the placements seem distant.

ThirdValvesAreForWimps Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 The Cavaliers are still scoring < 8.00 in several key categories. That’s not good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last two nights Crossmen are playing well with about six judges, and one or two decide that they don't like aussies for some reason?? Tonight it was GE1 and Music Analysis (MA was the second night in a row.) Anyone who isn't biased wanna tell me what's up?

Most likely going to be SCV or BD. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
