ThePlanets Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 (edited) Well it's 9 days but the day of the premier would be day 0 and the alliterations don't fly. Anyway... I am getting excited for the 2019 season and want to start a countdown of sorts. What's your favorite 10th place show(s) of all time? BK has the most 10th place finishes with 5. Boston Crusaders and the Crossmen have 4 each Edited June 11, 2019 by ThePlanets 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePlanets Posted June 11, 2019 Author Share Posted June 11, 2019 (edited) Mine are VK 1992: Part III - just a great, fun, entertaining classic drum corps show. 1992 was one of the best years for DCI, IMO BK 2005: A Midsummer Knights Dream - my favorite show from 05 and my first DCI live show. BK 2013: No Beginning No End- one of my favorites in 2013 Edit: Crossmen 2016: Continuum makes my list for sure! I thought it was a 9th place show. My bad. Probably my favorite 2016 show.

ftwdrummer Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 There is a correct answer here, and that answer is VK 1992. Mandarins last year had stilts and a turntable. But they didn't have Godzilla and the Energizer Bunny. Or a shark. Point VK. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim K Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I had to go to DCX just to jolt my memory a bit. Tenth place is interesting. Some corps are beginning to rise placed 10th, a few others 10th was a last hurrah. Some were not the best attempts. I picked two, one that was a surprise, one a bit underrated. 1980 Garfield Cadets. One of my favorite feel good shows and a show that appeared to have little potential in early shows but came alive mid season. There were some who did predict they would make finals and never look back, and some who thought it was wishful thinking. The never look back folks were correct. 2015 Boston Crusaders. I really liked this show though it didn’t gel the way some had hoped. It was the 75th Anniversary that year and they performed with the Boston Pops at the Esplanade on July 4th and Tanglewood, so it was a year with great experiences for marching members but not the placement many hoped for and lower than I expected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
