PR_ducky Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 There are a lot more then three shows for me, too many too list and here is a hint... drum corps existed before the 80's.. :P <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There are a ton of great shows from pre-1980, but when trying to pick a show based on emotion, I really only felt I could pick from what I saw live. We all know its just not the same on video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommySopranoContra Posted August 30, 2005 Author Share Posted August 30, 2005 (edited) Tommy! Thanks again for your praise of 89 SCV! :P I'm limiting my three to shows I actually saw live: -1987 Santa Clara Vanguard. Possibly the most emotionally charged show I ever saw live. -1988 Madison Scouts. Absolutely WHAM! Emotion and energy that lifted you right out of Arrowhead Stadium. It's a good thing it wasn't a dome. They might have blown the roof off! -1996 Phantom Regiment. The guard was IMO practically impeccable. The drill, hornline and drums were stunning. -Honorable Mention. 1988 Suncoast Sound. You had to experience it to really feel it. This show was WAAAAY ahead of it's time. -Honorable Mention. 1989 Phantom Regiment (minus the drum solo, which IMO was a drop in energy) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 1989 SCV alumni Edited August 30, 2005 by TommySopranoContra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doogiempt Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 For me: 1. - 1987 SCV 2. - 1989 Cadets 3. - 1989 SCV Those are the 3 shows in which not only am I emotionally affected, but I can feel the emotion coming off the DVDs from the corps.
