ThePlanets Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 The countdown continues. What are some of your favorite 7th place shows? Bluecoats and Santa Clara Vanguard lead the pack with six 7th place finishes each. This is an interesting slot because a 7th place show is a great year for some corps, an average year for others, and a terrible year for the top groups. It's also the last show not in the top 6.

ThePlanets Posted June 14, 2019 Author Share Posted June 14, 2019 There have been a lot of good, enjoyable 7th place shows over the years but the one that stands out to me the most is Carolina Crown-2005-Angelus Bluecoats have a lot of nice 7th place finishes as well with the best being Homefront 1945. I wanna give a shout-out to the amazing arrangement of Creep in 2011 as well. Not one of my personal favorites but 2007 Criminal shouldn't be overlooked either as it scored so high and at some points of the season they were so close to getting their first medal. VK 1987 is another great one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldSnareDrummer Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Ah, been waiting for this one. Lots of great #7 shows from the oldies. 1972 - Des Plaines Vanguard - They just looked mean as hell. Mars showed it. 1979 - Guardsmen - Great sound, memorable and enjoyable music. 1980 - SCV - Everyone bagged on Evita. I liked it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dozen or show I've seen film on are great. As for 1980 SCV- I think 1980 had the best top 4 of all time so I would imagine that while getting 7th was disappointing it was still a great show.

Tommeee Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Cadets 2018. Tons of emotion in that performance, and awesome because of what it meant to the corps, fans, and alumni. I will never forget seeing it in Allentown!! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
