Hoping for a great months left here for The Cadets! I was hoping for changes to the closer in order to compete at a higher level as it was very stagnant - this is good news. The problem I have with this show is within the GE category - it simply doesn't and cannot compare, nor compete, with the top of the pack. As an alumni, it's worth mentioning that the guard has made SIGNIFICANT improvements vs. past years and that makes me very proud. ! I am however still missing the wow factor from this show - what will it take? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah so the indication is that some people get hurt in drum corps, some don't. This isn't exclusive to Cadets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am however still missing the wow factor from this show - what will it take? I am sure the design team and caption heads have a plan.... Really smart people there the past two years. Plenty of knowledge how to "get it done" and consultants that more than know the activity. Slow and steady wins the race ... when you are rebuilding a brand.

DCI-86 Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I hope they can clean up the guard. Saw a run from yesterday and the guard is still very sloppy. Had a good start but don’t seem to be cleaning. That could be the big difference between them and Blue Stars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could be the big difference between them and Blue Stars 🙄 pretty sure GE is more of a concern right now - Blue Stars are much more visually impactful. Btw - the guard hasn’t been this good in 3 years. Edited July 17, 2022 by Cadet Guardy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it’s not exclusive to the Cadets, but The Cadets we’re at the wrong end of the spectrum. If you don’t know this, you need to talk to more people.

Tony L. Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 (edited) Finally saw the show. WOW! Souch abeautiful show and flow. Love the progression and the narration makes sense and does not detract. I loved it. And I was happy to hear an audience go crazy for them. Indy will be very interesting. America loves a comeback story and I feel the audience will finally be ready to fully embrace the Cadets! I can't wait to see them in Indy!
