Danpod Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Jennifer!!!!! If you need the video, talk to me =) Quote
euro_euph06 Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Done it. Not well, mind you, but our band has done it. Wasn't very entertaining however. Are there any videos of this show? I want to see someone do that well. I am in your band. We have not done what the Cavaliers have done. Please see the video. I have a copy too if you want to see it. Quote
davidpowell Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 I can't wait to hear Phantom and Crown's brass lines. Like hard core. Hopefully the Blue Devils get out of that, mehness, of last season. Cavies, yeah, same as always. Bluecoats' drumline is gonna' throw again. Right now, I think the top three will throw up between -Phantom -Cadets -Crown Yes, I think Crown is gonna' rock. They're going places, most definately. Quote
Xukaniz Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 1. Cavies 2. Blue Devils 3. Phantom Regiment 4. Bluecoats 5. SCV 6. The Cadets 7. Madison Scouts 8. Crown 9. Blue Knights Too tired to think of the rest atm hehe. Quote
artishard Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 im hearing great stuff about the cavaliers as always. im hoping scv gets back towards the top sometime soon at least. my vote to win it all is the cadets though Quote
EODrillDesigner98 Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 My top 12 in order: 1) Blue Devils 2) Santa Clara Vanguard 3) Cavaliers 4) Blue Coats 5) Crossmen 6) Cadets 7) Blue Knights 8) Blue Stars 9) Pacifc Crest 10) Esperanza 11) Mandarins 12) Boston Crusaders Quote
CHS King Mello Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 I'm pretty sure that the Cavaliers 2002 show is different from the 2001 and 2003 shows. Especially in the drum breaks. Original compositions are really started to diverse the corps. It gives the audience something new to listen to. Entertainment wise, the Cavalier's 2002 drum break was downright awesome. The drill was downright awesome. Let's see if your band can have their shoulders square to the sideline and march at 180ish and moving in straight lines toward the center of the field all at the same time. And keep the theme of Frameworks, constant throughout the show. Not to mention that if a show lacks entertainment (a.k.a. GE)</span> that you will not score a 99.15. You have obviously lacked to see that I have said IN MY OPINION at least 3 times. I told you what I'd rather watch, and I would much rather watch Cavies 97, then Cavies 02. Plain and simple, MY OPINION. who says entertainment is judged by GE? I do, in fact, hate some shows that are completely loaded with GE. to much of a good thing is bad. and judging by your signature, you are a Cavies fan, which means that I will never win this argument with you, even though those aren't my intentions. and by the way, my band did square shoulders at 200 at the end of our show. anyway, my call 1. Cavaliers 2. Phantom 3. BD 4. The Cadets 5. Bluecoats 6. Crown 7. SCV 8. Madison 9. Blue Knights 10. Boston Crusaders 11. Glassmen 12. Spirit -- 13. Crossmen 14. Colts 15. Seattle 16. Southwind 17. Blue Stars -- 18. Captial Regiment 19. The Magic 20. Pacific Crest 21. Mandarins 22. Pioneer 23. Esperanza 24. Kiwanis Kavaliers -C Quote
CHS King Mello Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 and on a side note, I do know that I put Cavies to win. Because I like the show they have picked out this year, and it sounds more "symphonic." Certainly a nice break from what they have been doing. -C Quote
Skippy Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 I told you what I'd rather watch, and I would much rather watch Cavies 97, then Cavies 02. Plain and simple, MY OPINION. Yeah, and he was stating HIS opinion. Chill out man. Quote
Skippy Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Not to mention that if a show lacks entertainment (a.k.a. GE) GE != entertainment Quote

Ok..South Carolina kid. If you read my post in this thread then you would have noticed my saying that I am a huge fan of the BLUE DEVILS. Read the post dude. And by the way----I noticed your opinions. I just dont like them . In my opinion. Quote

mbui Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 It was mentioned earlier in the discussion, but I just thought I'd point out that half of the 2000 Cavaliers show was original music by Richard Saucedo. The other half came from Michael Daugherty's, "Niagara Falls." Quote

euro_euph06 Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 Not 72 or 73. PR 72: 23rd PR 73: 14th Quote
FrontierVP Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 Plus I stated that they started to become very good in 2000. Actually, you did say "only began to become good in 2000." However, I regret reacting to your earlier post the way I did. ================ This idea of drum corps (in general) getting better brings up some topics I've seen on DCP (DrumCorpsPlanet). I am new to DCA/all-ages, but I have a bit of spectator experience with junior corps repetoire (mostly recordings, but a significant percent of live performances going back to 1987). From what I've seen of the earliest DCI recordings, it seems to me that starting in the mid to late eighties, drum corps came into its own as an art form, not just a musical activity. This was when the junior drum corps shows solidly and decidedly became unified shows rather than a concert of songs. Quote
CHS King Mello Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 that's true. Look back at alot... actually most shows. They didn't have a title, or theme. They were usually songs that had some sort of relativety with one another. Now, if you did that, you'd probably get toasted. -C Quote
AndrewPCarr Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 1. Cavies 2. BD 3. Cadets 4. Bluecoats 5. Phantom 6. Madison 7. SCV 8. Crown 9. BK 10. Boston 11. Glassmen 12. Crossmen But that's just me Quote
FrontierVP Posted February 17, 2006 Posted February 17, 2006 DCA Open Class 1.) Bushwackers 2.) Buccaneers 3.) Brigadiers 4.) Minnesota Brass, Inc. 5.) Empire Statesmen 6.) CorpsVets 7.) Caballeros 8.) Renegades 9.) Carolina Gold 10.) Frontier (not too shabby for a corps in only its second year) 11-12.) I won't venture a guess 13.) Kilties 14.) Rochester Crusaders 15-18.) I won't venture a guess DCA Class A 1.) Alliance 2.) Chops 3.) Govenaires 4-8 or so.) I won't venture a guess Quote
CHS King Mello Posted February 18, 2006 Posted February 18, 2006 Renegades to 8th? no way. I think Grenadiers could make a strong push this year... they almost got in last year, with a good show. I hope they get more numbers, and maybe an even better designed show, and they could make a huge push. top 10 for DCA finals: 1. Reading Buccaneers... again. 2. Bushwackers... although they could beat the Bucs this year. it should be close. 3. Brigs... Rouge will be cool... top 3 will be a toss up. 4. Renegades... because they are cool. 5. MBI... cool corps, good hornline, could be higher 6. Empire... see above. 7. CorpsVets... almost marched with them this year... they have a mighty show, and a larger brassline. if the percussion gets better, they will be a huge threat. 8. Gold... another finals show for Gold. Tower of Power! 9. Cabs... they will drop again, unless they have a much better organizational year, and a better designed show. 10. Grenadiers... I said it already... the 10-12 spots will be close. If Grenadiers can manage a good show, with larger numbers, watch out. all of this is speculation, as most corps in DCA have switched to stealth mode, and haven't released to much. gonna be a great year for DCI, and DCA! -C Quote
FrontierVP Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 Oops, you're right. Move Renegades up two spots past Corpsvets and Cabs in my post. Quote
