MikeN Posted February 15, 2006 Author Share Posted February 15, 2006 I'd have to vote for Red (2000) - they had just about everything a crowd-pleasing show should, from the amazing symmetrical drill moves, to the rope drummers, the weaving of Bolero through the entire production, and yes, even the singing (which came out *much* better on the mid-season recordings than it did on the Finals CD's).

usmpiano Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I'll probably be in the extreme minority, but for as many shows as they did that the fans really cared, those are the ones I really just don't like. The only shows of theirs I like from beginning to end are 1999 and 2001, with 2001 being the most favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeN Posted February 15, 2006 Author Share Posted February 15, 2006 I'll agree - they were both good shows. 1999 seemed very faithful to the source music, and 2001 - well, it's one of those that you're either going to like or sit there scratching your head. :) Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiotad Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I chose Red for overall impact - even if it was a bit calculated in spots. You Are My Star had the most compelling musical repertoire and the 99 show was a solid top 12 show. An interesting follow-up poll would be their most favorite Non Finalist Show.

(I have been a Boston and Crossmen fan for a while.....at most shows back in the late 80's Boston, Crossmen and even Dutch Boy would perform either 2nd or 3rd.....they all use to be on early in the night.....

AlbionNY Drum Line Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 i knew that 200 would win but 2001 was freaking sweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 just a random question....but what caused BAC, a perennial non-finalist, to jump into the top 12 in 99, where they have remained ever since? new staff? new administration?
