Whiskey Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Had to catch your show today Academy. Best run I’ve seen all year! Best wishes for the off-season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KVG_DC Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 I don't remember if they do "through the show" during semis or not. They might hold the top 12 suspense until tonight cause it's legit drama. But I remember a year when Madison didn't make finals and it was part of a mid show announcement and people said some of the Madison MMs were milling about in the stands and such when it was announced and had to deal with feeling crushed with people around them.

KVG_DC Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Madison is selling this show musically. I mean, yeah they probably could have given this group more, and it definitely has more meat in it than earlier in the season so they've been adding, but it's an enjoyable show to listen to and has some neat visual moments too. I would like to think the design team will be more ambitious next year as they regrow the Scouts. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2muchcoffeeman Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 At least through 2019 they announced prelims and semis scores through the shows during breaks, revealing the scores of the final block after the last corps. There's a ton of drama just in that final block alone. The penultimate block contains the drama of who makes finals and who does not. As a member, and as a parent, those moments are seared into my memory. I'd be surprised if DCI has changed their practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAtenhut Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Madison with a solid show and season. Hope they can build on this 15th placement and get better for next year. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake W. Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 You know, I know there's not a lot of people in the Madison camp thrilled with this show, but the corps looks and sounds more confident and clear than I've seen since...Last Man Standing? It seems like they've got a tremendous base of consistency in execution in all captions, and the corps performs so confidently and smoothly because of that. I hope they keep this teaching & design staff in place and allow them to grow a bit to see what can be achieved. This really does seem like a solid framework for future years, and felt more "Madison Scouts" than the last few seasons. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Smith Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 From the stands: "LET'S GO TEAM WHITE!" That could be the motto for 2022. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
