I'm afraid that Carolina Crown now rules the roost of horn lines. Through all the Downey years I always felt like the BD horn line just commanded your attention more than any other in the activity. They were always just a notch cleaner and more powerful than the others. And I think Wayne knew how to write in a way that accentuated their abilities. They are still awesome, but now Crown has the same impact on me that BD used to have. Crown can be consistently number one in brass, as long as BD is consistently world champs. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fran Haring Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 This has to be one of the quietest retirements of a drum corps legend that I can remember. Hands down, one of the best ever at his craft for so many years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New blood is addressing those changes almost everywhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
