DCI World Champs Prelims - Aug 9, 2018


Recommended Posts

I hope folks watching through Flo got to see FREE Players. Their use of the music from "Rocky" would make any 27th member or fan jump up and cheer. The show is emotional and good. Kudos also to the volunteers who help them be all they can be.

Lunch run, successful.  Now to ruin the exercise with the quesadilla, chips, and guac I picked up from Chupacabra.

 

Also, I stopped and got some zebras cakes for later.  I blame the Cadets.

Love love love everything that the Guardians do. They currently remind me very much of Oregon Crusaders ---- wildly entertaining shows that have almost no hope of being cleaned by the corps by the time Indy rolls around, but it doesn't matter, because what they're doing is so vastly different from everyone else around them that you're forced to take note of the show & applaud their bold designs and uniqueness. Also, does Guardians field a full corps?! With all sections, I think I counted either just at or just under 150 members. If so, I'm positive that's the first full corps of the day. Either way, spots in this corps clearly appear to be in demand, and I can see why. Can't wait to see what other crazy & creative productions this corps gives us in the coming years as they move up the ranks of Open Class and eventually (if it's their goal) secure a unique niche in World Class.

Last I heard at move ins early June they were up to 140 on the field. The kids are super excited for all the things they are doing. This is my son's 2nd year playing contra with them. When I asked him how it's going "its pretty hype." I think that means really good.

I think that they are going for target audience being the marchers, not the judges. Sometimes bites them in the ### but they are having a great time while doing it! Dci did a piece on them few weeks ago talking about the different things they are doing.

My lunch run consisted of getting various pickled items from Trader Joe's to garnish the giant Bloody Mary pitcher I'm working my way through!

I have some gummy bears as well. They're....well, they're made here in Denver. So it's been a lovely Prelims so far!

needs the white background to work.  

I bet we could get a lemon yogurt version that has the dark chocolate lines?
