GMichael1230 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 So which corps had some of the best endings ? What final show moments grabbed you out of your seat and dropped your jaw ? Here are my ten favorite, in no real order. 1990 Star of Indiana - jaw dropping 1989 Star of Indiana - company front just smacked you in the face 1986/1987 Blue Devils - They overwhelmed you with such power 1991 Cavaliers - kaleidescopic effect, almost dizzying 1987 Phantm Regiment - flawless, picturesque, beautiful 1987 SCV - raw emotion 1980 27th Lancers - suspense adn fufillment 1984 Suncoast Sound - full field coverage 1995 Madison Scouts - Wow ! 1985 Madison Scouts - Fast, solid and full of GE.

Slow Adam Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I haven't spontaneously "lost it" at the end of a show since Madison 1999. What a great ending! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George82 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 1983 Garfield Cadets- Z-pull Rocky Point Holiday Reprise 1984 Garfield Cadets- the magically appearing company front iin "Tonight"....the genius of George Zingali...they were throwin' babies from the upper deck! 1987 Garfield Cadets- the front that dissolves & reappears....the block leaving the stadium, Ricky Wygant's solo which no one heard b/c the place was rockin' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machine Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Magic in '02 had a great ending. You thought it was over at the chord progression but they they had another little percussion interlude before stabbing you with the closing chords.

apoch003 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 The Bridgemen faint. The VK ode to Bridgemen faint. Blue Devils "choo-chooing" off the field as the train left the station. 81 Vanguards "Don't Cry for Me Argentina". 83 PR and the 1812 overture with all their towns church bells.

Marc66 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 1985 Madison Scouts - Fast, solid and full of GE. Vintage Scouts~G~ <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Awe...shucks!!! Someone remembered... '85 was, not only awesome, but also fun to march!!! A few others: '83 Garfield: The Rocky Point reprise & crowd response! '84 Madison: The end push of Memory...WHAT ENERGY! '86-89 SCV: The magic tricks were pure genius. '86 SCV: Anytime you get a judge to say, "S***. HOLY S***!" on a tape, it's gotta be amazing. I agree...there are SOOOOOOO many others...but, thought I'd chime in with these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
