johnweldy Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 (edited) Here's a fun little thing. DCI reviews for the ADD generation. All shows reviewed in 5 words or less (except for a couple where I couldn't decide which review to use). KIWANIS KAVALIERS Division II isn't so bad. PIONEER Improving, still not quite there. TROOPERS Rifle joke stole the show. ESPERANZA Bright future ahead. MAGIC Strong foundation. Keep building. CAPITAL REGIMENT Concept making more sense. SOUTHWIND Tons of energy. Weird hats. SEATTLE Went unplugged. Good career move. MANDARINS 42 horns sound like 70. XMEN Ill-conceived concept. Goodbye finals streak. COLTS Poignant show. Sentimental favorite. SPIRIT Lush sounds. Solid finalist. GLASSMEN "New World", lots of orange. Highest cleaning bills in DCI. BK Technically proficient. Emotionally lacking. SCV Russia 1917. DCI 1978. BAC Drumset line adds variety. CROWN Ethereal & majestic. I believe. BLUECOATS Really need late season push. MADISON En Fuego...con Seniorita! BD Show feels like 1000 hours. They're tired. So am I. Talking behind me - now this... PR New Phantom - now with orange. Borrowing Glassmen's visual design. Gershwin needs orange, umbrellas. CAVALIERS Jazz, fire, baseball, Lucky Charms. Chicago needs your ladders. Chicago: ladders & funny hats. CADETS Definitely in "The Zone" Edited August 2, 2005 by johnweldy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Devil Legend Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 (edited) SCVRussia 1917. DCI 1978. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You lost me right there, but thanks anyway. That is all. Edited August 2, 2005 by Blue Devil Legend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elmo Blatch Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 You lost me right there, but thanks anyway. Yeah Blue Devils Legend, I don't get it either. In 1917, we had a revolution in Russia, the Romanov family was killed. In 1978, Santa Clara won DCI nationals. Now if she/he were simply to type: 1917 Russia 2002 Madison 2005 Russian Christmas Music I think we could get that. Elmo Blatch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Center X Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Possibly the funniest review I have read this year! I love the SCV anachronistic reference, although it pains me to see them fall from grace so swiftly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnweldy Posted August 2, 2005 Author Share Posted August 2, 2005 All I meant in the SCV thing was the show is "Old School". I really just picked 1978 out of a hat...the specific year isn't intended to mean anything...though wasn't that one of the years Xmen played RCM? But then again...that's more than 5 words. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
