If Crown changed their uniforms to a print with this they'd easily win it all.

It's so uplifting and inspirational.   It should be posted on the busses.

A friend of mine completely unconnected to drum corps posted it as a goof on inspirational posters and I was "THIS IS PERFECT".

The issue that I have is that the story is front and center in the opener. Musically the opener is wonderful and they balance the story with the musical demand. The rest of the show it kind of feels like the story, and thus a lot of potential GE, gets cannibalized for the sake of the musical demand. Story falls to the background and it's all about section features. Crown has had the most success when they can do both. 

This is my general issue with shows that follow a traditional story arch. Known stories are predictable, we know what should be happening and have certain expectations going into it. For me, that removes some of the mystery and excitement. This is especially true when the story in condensed into a 10-minute field production with the other obligatory sections that need a place to fit in. While Crown is worried about nursing a storyline, Bluecoats, BAC, BD, Phantom, etc. are working on concepts that they can do WHATEVER THEY WANT with. As long as the concept is consistently woven into the show then the creative license is much freer. 

When was the last time a traditional story-based show won DCI? Spartacus in 08?
