Who's all going to the DCI Houston show at the Berry Center next Thursday (7/19)?

I'll be there. I'm sitting in the upper deck (Section C, Row O) in the 45-50 yard line area.

 

Visit me and you'll win a cool Texas Bands prize!

[borchnork]

the odds of my parents letting me go to a dci competition farther than 30 miles from my house are even less than the odds of winning the lottery...

I was sitting in the upper deck in Section C, Row O. I got to meet Manuel and barisax08 of Westfield.

Very short thoughts on the DCI Houston competition before I head out for San Antonio:

 

Boston Crusaders had a very enjoyable show. They received a nice reaction from the crowd. I'm still a little puzzled on the Picasso theme though. They could've went a different direction with the show concept. Maybe something more Latin? The Blue Stars were LOUD. I didn't expect them to produce volume like that. I was blown by away by their sound. Seattle Cascades brought back memories of my high school days when they did Philip Glass' "V2 Schneider." SCV rocked the house. Things just clicked for them tonight....everything from the music to the visual. What a show. The Cavaliers were fantastic as well. Although, a couple of guys tripped and fell on the 50. Ouch. The Cavaliers also performed their new ending for the first time, but you can tell they just learned it. It was very sloppy.

 

Overall, it was a very enjoyable night of drum corps in Houston. The Berry Center is a BEAUTIFUL venue. I still can't believe it's a high school stadium. I love how the stadium is intimate. I was sitting in the upper deck and it felt like I was sitting inches away from the sideline.
