ThePlanets Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Things are looking really good for SCV this year. If Babylon wins the title- how will it be looked back on in Drum Corps history? Is it a legendary show? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouooga Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Always too early to tell, even if it wins. There's some years that feel iconic in the moment, but almost never get a rewatch/listen after the fact (I'm looking at you 07!). Only time will tell on the legacy, but I will say, in the moment, 18 has been a lot of fun! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePlanets Posted July 25, 2018 Author Share Posted July 25, 2018 (edited) The title winning shows from the past 10 years that I consider to be legendary are Spartacus- Phantoms first solo championship... such a story of how it got there...such a powerful aggressive show. BD 2014- freakishly high scoring and ran away with the championship from day one. The best show the judges have seen yet. (FWIW I prefer BD 09 and 17 by a landslide over this but it's personal preference) Bluecoats 16- it was just so different from anything else yet. Now no top 12 corps has traditional uniforms and the 3d/4d thing and music tech has gotten so much more prevelent. I think SCV is the best on the field this year but I don't know if this is quite as legendary.

I listen to the top 8 at least once a month. Especially Blue Devils, Cadets, and Phantom Regiment. Cavaliers show is light-hearted entertainment as well.

I know 12 didn't win, and BD 13 wasn't their best, but those two shows were beasts. 2009 crown honorable mention, for music. Absolutely wonderful musical program. One of the best ever IMO. I would not put this year's SCV in this category. Edited July 25, 2018 by BoyWonder1911 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
