Exactly and that is why it’s a stupid argument. Every corp works hard. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t believe I forgot to mention the velvet knights. They were the modern day bluecoats of their time. Pure fun to watch and #### good corp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two arguments that hold water are 1) BD have a significant financial advantage, and 2) they design shows around the scoresheets. If other corps aren’t designing shows around the scoresheets, then what are they doing? Do you think other orgs don’t care about winning? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corps8294 Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Everyone has made some good points, either way. However, this thread is becoming such a dead horse, now; it's gotten to the point of becoming a "Neverending Story" horse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a band exposition then don’t score the shows. This is my last response to you on this topic. If competition is the answer, then what is the goal of the competition? If it is simply to win a championship, is it worth the expense as a means to an end? I say, "no." The competition has to matter. What is the success? I'm not getting something profound from you on these questions. Edited August 13, 2022 by Drum Corps Is Now a Bust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
