cat699 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 i know people will rip me for my short list but what do u think were the openers and closers of 2006 these six from each were the standouts, I would have to say opener Cavaliers and closer devils with carolina closer behind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_S Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Bluecoats had by far my favorite opener. That was my favorite section of any show in 2006. Closer was more difficult, I couldn't think of many great ones this year. I liked Phantom's Corigliani, but felt they spent too much time on the Mahler (well, it is Mahler after all). I went with Cavaliers, because that closer had a ton of energy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdjazz93 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 The middle section winner for me would be Bluecoats. I how I love that steel drum section. It's just cool and fun to watch them perform it. B) But BD and Cavies are tops for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris ncsu Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Of these choices: Opener: Favorite = Phantom (BD close 2nd) Least = eh, no least Closer: Favorite = Vanguard Least = Cavies (least of top 12 probably) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexL Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Fav opener: Bluecoats, with cavaliers close 2nd Fav closer Cadets (ive listened to their show from the end of the singing in the ballad to the end a million times) Crown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ApocalypseTissue Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 I loved how Phantom totally scared the crap out of the audience by starting immediately after crocker stated, "you may take the field for competition" WHAM, scythian suite!

OboeBrad Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 I LOVED Phantom's closer. I'm a sucker for drill where shapes pop out of nowhere. Hello there, Chevron! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
