And it has virtually nothing to do with the show announcement, nor the list of music to be played. Lets face it, this Corps, which essentially is akin to DCI 's All Stars Marching Drum Corps, could announce this weekend that they will be playing Dionne Warwick's pop hits from the 60's or similar in their show, and we know theres a good chance they're going to win or medal with the music/ show. And best of success to them once again this season. Looking forward to seeing what they have in store for us. They did the Burt Bacharach show and it’s one show I listen to all the time. It’s great music. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Devils played " Happy Days are Here Again " in 2009, and parlayed that into a DCI Title too. They can play anything. ANYTHING, imo.. and it would not hurt them on the score sheets. Talent allows this. Heck, they could probably play " Three Blind Mice " ..... " Mary Had a Little Lamb " and so forth. and make it work on the sheets for them.

As long as BD remains the most experienced corps in DCI—both in MM and staff—they will be a medalist. Not difficult to predict. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m with HockeyDad on this one. The show announcement comes out, and as a result, the post says now, the Blue Devils once again are the corps to beat - before anyone has played one note in a competition. And you prove my point. If BD hasn’t in any year since 2007, who’s been a close second? 08? 11? 13? 16? 18? yup. BD. Wanna win that’s the corps ya gotta beat. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
