totaleefree Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Tonight several DCA Corps kick off their 2019 seasons (partly because of rain in PA last week, Tonight Atlanta CV, Southern Knights and the defending Class A Champions Carolina Gold will be competing at the DCI open class show in Millbrook AL. I think they get a DCI score which is good for self improvement but not directly relatable to a DCA Score Tomorrow, Sunday the 14th they will be at a DCI/DCA show in Wookstock GA where they will receive a DCA score. As someone who work helps out at Carolina Gold I am pretty excited about this years show. Last year was a rebuilding year and this year we actually have a clue about what we are doing . I hope the show on the field is good but however the scores turn out Gold has been a fun corps this year and the kids have improved greatly over the past 2 months. The lids are happy and I think it will show ias they present a fun and entertaining show 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weaklefthand4ever Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 I am VERY excited about finally getting some actual reads on CV. Hopefully the show is small enough that someone will Periscope at least one of the shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weaklefthand4ever Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Do we happen to know if scores will actually be released on the DCA corps or if this is one of the "evaluation only with comments" type of gigs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.E. Brigand Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 DCI has scores posted for the DCI corps at Millbrook but not for the DCA corps. DCA doesn't have Millbrook scores posted (but does have the Clifton scores up). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weaklefthand4ever Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Yeah they won't get scores on DCA until tonight at the Atlanta Brass Classic. They only got feedback yesterday. According to some of those there, CV had an excellent run and will stream tonight. WHAT they will stream is probably up for debate since they haven't been very hip in the last few years on anyone seeing the show until friends and family day it seems. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.E. Brigand Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 DCA has the Woodstock scores: Atlanta CV 79.00 Carolina Gold 69.60 Southern Knights 62.10 I didn't realize that Gold was in Class A this year and Southern Knights were in Open. Seems backwards! But since everyone will make Finals, I guess it doesn't matter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The feed last night was really, REALLY fuzzy so I can't make a lot of comments. The sound (when I could hear) seemed to be pretty strong.

I felt last season's show to be rather dry, designed for the technical boxes to be checked. When "Orawa" is the only highlight I can remember after watching it twice... I'm shaking my head. The Brass had a pretty shaky run in prelims IMHO, and I think a lot of soul searching took place and they came through with a strong, strong performance at Finals that helped to earn them that championship. If the show is more accessible and reaches more to the audience, it will put them in very, very good stead come Championship weekend. I think it's been an Achilles Heel of the corps for the past 4 or so seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totaleefree Posted July 23, 2019 Author Share Posted July 23, 2019 Well if you want to check out our show we will be on Flo Marching Saturday at 1:57 to do our show, which was last rehearsed on Sat , so it may be a little sloppy but you can get the general idea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
