I think Troopers need a good run tonite as well (their Facebook pages seems to say they will be competing).  They are coming of a Covid-break and along with BK, Colts, & Crossmen are vying for the 11th & 12th spot in finals.  And in my means-nothing opinion, Troopers have the coolest show this season.

absolutely - these corps that are only performing once do not have the benefit of averaging their scores over both weekend contests which will be used to seed the corps into Allentown on the road to INDY.

I have not missed a NightBEAT since 2011, but this year I will because of COVID. I am so mad at myself for the rotten timing. Hoping all the corps have fantastic runs tonight - what a great lineup! 

As a result, I have three tickets in Section 6, Row JJ, great seats near the 50 if anyone is interested. Need someone to use them. Thanks. 

Get well soon.

So, tonight's performance by the Cadets is IMO the corps most important in several seasons, possibly since way back in 2015

Currently in sixth place, the corps has several strong corps behind them > Cavaliers, Blue Stars, Mandarins, a little further back Regiment and others. A handful of these corps absolutely have the talent & content to make a run at Cadets. Can they maintain the "buffer" between them and the 7 to 11 place units? Tonight, Allentown and of course Prelims in Indy will decide. Sounds like Cadets have been very busy CLEANING and adding small enhancements. Scoring above 89 or above tonight (a 90 would be HUGE) would be a nice step as the organization works to "rebuild"? A 7th or 6th place result this season would go a long way 🙂

Good luck to all the corps tonight, hopefully the weather holds out!

 

I’m going to go out on a limb and say that Cadets have solidified 6th place. To me, in addition to their technical skill there’s something about their program that’s just special enough to make them stand out from the pack right behind them.

NSX in the city limits of Winston Salem. Wx lookin’ a little more amenable…knock wood.

CrownCLUB elevator opens @ 3:30, and I’ve gotta play my annual game of “Where’s Rondo.” He’s gonna call security on me one of these years.

DM me for digits, and we can press flesh down by the wall. 

Please send fair weather karma, best of luck to all. corps and GO. CROWN 👑!!!!!!!!

Because performance order matters, eve though performance order is nor supposed to matter.

Note - new proposed rule for the next Rules Congress:  Because appearance order does not reflect in the final score, every Corps will perform in Alphabetical Order according to their name.  (The article 'The' as in 'The Cadets' is not considered part of the Corps name.).

If this passes, I suspect the color 'blue' will no longer be over-represented in Corps names.
