Meaghatron Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 When it comes to entertaining shows, I do ignore the scores. They definitely don't matter when it comes to entertainment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drumcat Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 google video, youtube, and any kind of download program, like limewire, etc... Let me make a legal suggestion. Join SeasonPass.dci.org. You'll be able to stream every show at good quality, for the history of all DCI finalists. That's the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAV Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Good morning and welcome to drum corps! Everyone's going to have their favorites. But my favorite year top to bottom (and the year with the most corps voted into the Classic Countdown) is 1980. One might call it the "Golden Year" - everyone was really good. The music was entertaining. And you can hear/see key signature tunes/moves - catch the 'identity' of various corps. Plus you can pick up on classic corps from the past: 27th Lancers, Bridgemen, and North Stars come to mind. You'd see the zaniness of Bridgemen. The "Rockford File" (Phantom Regiment guard on the 50 doing incredible tosses) 27th playing "Danny Boy" Santa Clara performing what was dubbed first asymmetrical drill. Sheer power of Spirit playing "Let It Be Me" That unbelievable sop soloist in North Star. The Cavalier's hornline stepping over the guard. Anyway...have fun and let us know your thoughts!

scouttimp Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Any top 12 from 82 to 92....GREAT 10n years for corps!I'm partial to 84 myself.... :P AGREE! For top to bottom, music and emotion, check out ALL of '84. Maybe not up to todays standards of drill and guard, 1984 with headphones on...yum!

RichCranford82 Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 (edited) Any top 12 from 82 to 92....GREAT 10n years for corps!I'm partial to 84 myself.... :P Ditto!! And by the way, 84 Blue Devils is usually the first thing I'll play when introducing someone to Drum Corps, good Lord that Corps could play!! Hands down the most intense version of "La Fiesta" ever put on a football field! I'll usually follow that up with a little 82 or 95 Madison, 89 or 03 Phantom, 74 or 85 Hawthorne (Muchachos and Cabs), 04 Cavies, 04 SCV, 84 Cadets and finish off with 2000 Blue Devils, my second favorite Devils show. If at that point they haven't run into the next room screaming or punched me in the face we just might slip in some 77 Bridgemen or 92 VK just for fun!!

Lance Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Lots of good suggestions. I'd put in BK 99, mostly for the incredible ballad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
