The 2005 Capital Regiment Sundial.

No kidding. Plus the phone calls I got right after it.

-2000 Cadets (10:32) and 2003 Cavaliers (10:42) trumpet fracks

-"You unlock this door with the key of imagination, beyond another dimension..." blah blah

-2004 Phantom snare tear during their solo (7:32)

-Any stupid yelling by stupid people during ballads of any corps any year ever.

I think it was either Denver or Foxboro, I can't remember. Guy screaming out before every corps:

"TURN 'EM OFF!!! YOU DON'T NEED 'EM!!!!'

What a ######

Reminds me of another cringe-worthy moment (from on the field).

This past year, at the Denver show, our amps cut out, and it caused mass confusion. There was a great big tear for half of our second production. Somehow, it came back together. But still... *cringe*.

SCV 1987 during RCM, on the entrance after the hold (where the yell was in 05), ouch. I honestly don't see what everyone thinks is so great about this performance of RCM, I enjoyed 05 much more.

Dynasty instruments.

Cadets drum feature in '00. I thought it was a great show up to that point, at which they totally blew it.

Just to name a few....

Sandy Barlow if you know her you, you should be cringing. If you dont cringe anyway.

Last year at finals, in the middle of the Cadets' ballad (during a really quiet part), someone behind us yelled "Go BOA!"

Made us cringe for sure, but I can't say it didn't make me smile.

The ending of '87 Vanguard. AMAZING show, but the wretched tone quality on those last four chords... ugh.

Boston, Crown, Blue Devils, Blue Stars, Bluecoats, Seattle Cascades, Capital Regiment, Crossmen, and Cadets when they didn't "TURN 'EM OFF!"

That's what makes me cringe.
