jasgre2000 Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 I hate the format of Allentown? Why do they split it into two nights? Is it just tradition, or is there some other reason? I think the fact that judges have to leave room for the corps performing tomorrow leads to some funky stuff with the scoring that we don't see when everyone is judged together. Unfortunate that it has to happen right before Indy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to review recaps. There hasn't been a 'big win' yet for either of those corps over the other. And don't hold your breath expecting one.

EricS Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Kinda harkens back to 2008. If BCs take gold it will probably be from crowd support. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordsterr Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 I have to say that Allentown was my favorite when I marched, and it's just as special when I can go. Just a lot of drum corps history there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrumManTx Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Also, Blue Stars! Glad to see them pretty much tied with BK. I really enjoy both, but I think I like Blue Stars just a little bit more. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePlanets Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Bloo has to watch those content scores for GE and visuals. SCV running 4th overall in brass doesn't seem right. But I didn't see the performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are judges deliberately scoring SCV low in certain captions to overcome their clear strengths in others? No, Maybe, just maybe, I show about counter-culture that is pretty much just a repeat of last year's winning show(Monochrome corps uniforms with bright colorful guard, Loud Staccato opener, Jazzy Rock Ballad with super squeak trumpet, Dance break Drum Feature, and Brass Band Closer with a romantic melody,) shouldn't be scoring well in GE because a show about counter-culture shouldn't be aping from what worked and people loved. It doesn't make any sense thematically. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
