(The Carmen Except addition) and I think its what put us over the top and got us into the top 5 that year. I hope this staff have been holding their cards and something truly special to add some magic to towards the end of this show. Based on some of the judges scores they are clearly telling the staff that they need to add some Content/ REP to the show as they are maxing out the Performance sub-captions. BAC 2000 was the epitome of a Cinderella story....from the spring training in Biddeford, Maine, to the first show not being until July 4th that year, it was crazy. My (much younger) friend was a rookie and he would call me each night and tell me who they had just beaten, and I couldn't get over it. To me, 2000, 2017 and 2022 all share the same vibe.... BAC leaping up through the feeding chain of DCI. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KVG_DC Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Ugh that 2000 show was so amazing. The ending wasn't what sold it for me. It was the opening with Bolero. Everyone in the stands all three nights at finals was into that show from the opening note and procession across the field. It oozed with 'taking the field for competition'. {BTW. I miss that phrasing. "the field is yours for competition!") 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Tony DiCarlo handles that responsibility now. If we go back to that, then we need the gun fire with blanks for the starting & stopping of judging. 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
