This year, BDB and SCVC presumably designed their shows to max out in California. So those particular shows, even with a few more weeks of work, might not have even medaled in Indiana. We just don't know.

Maybe, but I wouldn't have bet on that happening.

Ah, but which shows are we talking about? The shows BDB and SCVC designed to peak in mid-July? Or the theoretical shows they would have designed if they were coming to Indiana?

All I hear are crickets chirping about this post from last night. Is it mandatory for a corps to warm up at Military Park?... Because Blue Devils brass didn’t apparently. And if not, why then is it mandatory to be contained in a certain area there? A kind word to BAC about moving their brass a bit would have been appreciated rather than taking a picture and reporting the infraction to DCI.

BD brass has warmed up at Carroll Stadium (IUPUI’s soccer field) the past couple seasons and that’s what I’m having a hard time understanding, why BD can warm up farther away than where BAC did last night and not get penalized

Jersey Surf's final score and placement in World Class by year, since moving to that division:

2009 -- 78.55 -- 20th (of 22) -- "Mozart Effect"

2010 -- 75.70 -- 21st (of 23) -- "Living the Dream"

2011 -- 71.35 -- 22nd (of 23 -- and 25th of 41 overall) -- "Petal Tones"

2012 -- 75.45 -- 19th (of 22 -- and 20th of 35 overall) -- "Bridgemania"

2013 -- 75.40 -- 20th (of 22 -- and 22nd of 36 overall) -- "Soul Surfin': Bring on the Funk!"

2014 -- 75.80 -- 20th (of 22 -- and 22nd of 37 overall) -- "Pay It Forward"

2015 -- 68.75 -- 21st (of 22 -- and 28th of 39 overall) -- "Sun Surfing"

2016 -- 71.988 -- 21st (of 22 -- and 26th of 38 overall) -- "Ebb & Flow"

2017 -- 71.613 -- 22nd (of 23 -- and 27th of 40 overall) -- "Make It Our Own"

2018 -- 69.925 -- 23rd (of 24 -- and 30th of 40 overall) -- "[mondo mondrian]"

(The above information comes from DCX.)

 

Yesterday, with "FantaSea", they scored 76.413, placing 21st (of 22 -- and 24th of 36 overall).

In 2011-2014, the only years they made Semifinals, their score changed from Prelims as follows: -1.10 (2011), +0.95 (2012), +0.95 (2013), +0.25 (2014).

That's an average improvement of 0.253 from Prelims to Semis, so if today's performance was solid, they might reasonably hope to score 76.666.

I guess we'll know soon.

2019 - 21of 22 world, 24 of 36 does not top 12 through 14.  12 -14 were all basically the same score even though design and execution were not.

Because there wasn't a sign telling them not to?

Just a guess. I wasn't there.

I sat in the middle of BDs warmup last year that was in Military Park so not sure what you mean...

I don’t doubt it. I wonder what the DCI rules are on that, I walked down from the park on Thursday to see them at the soccer field and they were there last night too. I don’t usually go to Finals lot so it might be a bit different for Finals. SCV drumline warms up across the street too. Weird stuff
