Tony L. Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 I purchased the Legacy Collection finally and have been enjoying them for a few weeks now. I started from the begining and am now through 1982. One thing that has bothered me is that they do not include the final announcement of scores!?!? I skipped to the 1999 edition to see if maybe they were added to the more recent ones, but not there either. Am I missing something or are they simply not there? I am SOOOOO disappointed that they aren't. I love to hear the crowd reactions when scores are announced and this really takes away from the total enjoyment of the DVDs. Why on Earth would the announcements not be included? Also, I hate that they are arranged 1-12. I always have to watch them in reverse order so that I can enjoy the DVD pretty much as the corps performed at Finals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bawker Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 They also got rid of the drum major introducing the program, too. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jd83 Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 As is all the blather in the 1982 and 1983 Legacy DVD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony L. Posted July 22, 2004 Author Share Posted July 22, 2004 you got the $780 DVD collection!?can I come over to your house? :P <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It took me this long to finally decide to do it and I am very glad that I did! My real drum corps experience started in 1987. SO many cool things happened before then and it's really nice to sort of educate myself about the history of the activity. I'm through '82 and getting ready for '83 (and I'm a Cadets fan) so I can't wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orpheus Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 Also, I hate that they are arranged 1-12. I always have to watch them in reverse order so that I can enjoy the DVD pretty much as the corps performed at Finals. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Same here. I liked being to able to watch the shows as the evening progressed. I mean, you still can with the DVD's but it's a pain. The corps ought to be in performance order, that's my opinion. And why on earth did they not include the announcement of the scores? I don't get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mnscoutfan Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 I don't think they included the announcements because of the 92 David St. Angel incident and also the fact that people started to boo so much from the announcement of the ties.
