Given where Seattle Cascades are at, looking like four. And who that fourth one could be.......who knows. That will be fun to watch. Southwind, baby. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They blew me away out of nowhere in 2017. Their 2000 show is still a favorite of mine, that ballad is just 😍 Has been awesome seeing them back.

MikeN Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 OC definitely seems to be separating into distinct tiers right now. Not a bad thing, more of a "huh." Guardians are kind of in this no-man's land behind LA Stars but ahead of Shadow. We're playing an exhibition in Dixon on Wednesday - the show got cancelled months ago, but we're playing as part of a community festival - it will be a good time!

Thanks for noticing. 🙂 Battalion was absolutely killer on the field during their California swing, and perhaps more importantly, their members were well mannered, disciplined and polite young men and women. No SCVC/BDB. Gold is gonna win. Edited July 31, 2019 by LeftCoastCupcake TL:DR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.E. Brigand Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Encorps seems to be holding up OK for a first year corps with some long gaps between performance dates. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanjoseDCfan Posted July 31, 2019 Author Share Posted July 31, 2019 Tonight is the 1st battle between Gold and Spartans. Who looks good for the Gold medal going into Championships? Will Legends have a last minute surge and be a spoiler when they all meet up in a few days? Stay tuned! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrumManTx Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 My gut feeling is that Gold has been a little low at their last few shows, but we will find out tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake W. Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 DCI put up a quick little interview with Spartans. I knew the corps went inactive for a bit, but I didn't realize this was their tenth season back as an Open Class corps, hence, Experiment X (Ten). I love that nod to their growth! I'm still waiting to catch a current(ish; I'm not a choosey beggar) video of their show...everything I've heard sounds like they're on fire this year and have really gone above & beyond their normal offerings. Add me to this list of super curious to see how the Gold/Spartans match up goes tonight!!!! It sounds like both corps are hot this year! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkrepps Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 I've seen Spartans twice live this year and I sense an east coast win tonight! I predicted it 12 days ago and I'm always right, except when I'm not, but otherwise ALWAYS right! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With no close competitors like when they were on the west coast, their scores have dipped, but they have a great chance to rectify that tonight against the Spartans.
