bdeviled Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 OC's first show is tonight and the excitement is building! Will Dr. Kibinsky's crew shake up Div II with their premiere performance this evening? Any new predictions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 GO OREGON CRUSADERS!!! AND MOST OF ALL... GO NORTHWEST My pride and heart goes to all corps in the Northwest (even though I am from California), my time spent during the summers visiting family in the Seattle area, and then finally marching in the Cascades--Just really made me appreciate all the friends, family, and talent up there! I have high hopes of moving there someday! You guys will rock! I loved the performance last year when we saw you throughout the season! It's time we start making more noise up in the Northwest!

arno0940 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Was anyone at this show and can give us a review about the OC, BDB and Vanguard Cadets. The scores were as follows.... 1 Blue Devils B 75.750 2 Vanguard Cadets 68.250 3 Oregon Crusaders 58.450 I know, its not good to jump to conclusions after only 1 show....but a 10 point margin is huge.

Marc66 Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 First off, it was OC's first show - compared to both BD-B & Vanguard Cadets having been out there for a few weeks. Secondly, first show jitters get EVERYONE...so, I'd expect a boost at their next show. And, lastly, knowing how well the staff cleaned last years show leads me to believe that OC will have no problems challenging for a top spot this year. Good luck, Crusaders...

Center X Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 Agreed. first show jitters are good for about 4-5 points. Now about those other 12......

BlueCollarDrumCorps Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 I was at the show and thought they should have scored higher. No recaps up to see how they compared to SCVC or BDB. Of course it was the first show but they really played with confidence. They really let loose with the hornline and had some very good dynamic moments. As far as raw energy they were up there with all the other groups that night. The operative word is potential. They have the equipment, now they just have to tweek and tune. Not sure how they will place in but they are fun to watch and a joy to listen to. Nice arranging and not too difficult. I think another new (fairly) and long tradition of drum corps in the northwest is started. William Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc66 Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 Agreed. first show jitters are good for about 4-5 points. Now about those other 12...... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> did you see tonight's score: 68+? HMMM...I think they really were nervous out of the shoot...but WOW what a difference a day (or show) makes!!! Great job Crusaders!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strutters '72 Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 (edited) Agreed. first show jitters are good for about 4-5 points. Now about those other 12...... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 68.550 tonight. Brass apparently scored 16!!!! And they're only HALF over the "jitters". Edited July 9, 2005 by Strutters '72 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
