My guess would be 2011 because that's the last time they beat BD during the season. I think they won one of the big regionals that year.

IMHO this WGI theatrical approach is destroying drum corps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the crowd (at least around me in the club seats) was the worst behaved crowd I have encountered in a long time. People came in and out during the shows, a lady behind me answered her cell phone and carried on a conversation, and I now know (a) the best Italian restaurants in Minneapolis, (b) that its not a corps unless they use G bugles and (c) cool people call them "Concord" instead of the Blue Devils thanks to the ongoing LOUD conversation behind me. There were several Madison alum around me and I thought they were going to take matters into their own hands (they were as irritated as me). Rant done. Loved seeing the Blue Devils for the first time ... they blew me away. I feel for you. I’ve tired of this stuff so much - especially the moving around during performances - that I sprang for Friends tickets at finals. The ushers in those sections appeared to be much more mindful of stopping people from leaking into seats after the salute. Friends of DCI will all be courteous, well-behaved, and followers of drum corps etiquette, right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With BD, they have proved what a fool I am too many times when I thought they were going to finish outside of the top 2. Someday that will happen, but I don't see it happening this year. More often than not, people who predict BD finishing outside of the top 2 are just exhibiting very wishful thinking rather than giving an actual objective assessment on BD's show.

Is that even sensible bringing a baby to a drum corps show? Big hassle for mom and/or dad. Plus neighboring fans. And the baby must get stimulated like heck. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
