Danpod Posted August 8, 2008 Author Share Posted August 8, 2008 Quick recaps: Music - Phantom Regiment Visual - Blue Devils General Effect - Blue Devils, The Cavaliers, Phantom Regiment (No, I'm not kidding) Blue Devils sweep the entire Visual Caption. 19.90 in Visual Performance and Colorguard. Perfect 20 in Visual Ensemble. The Cavaliers were very consistent but their brass is holding them back. 4th place in Brass. Vanguard's Visual score puts them ahead of the Bluecoats. Crossmen must improve Visual and General Effect in order to make Finals. Let's go Bones!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenon Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Phantom was Awesome! The entire audience in the theater was in love with the new ending. Again, I think I was the only one in my theater to do the Vanguard yell. Both times even. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was pretty much the only person treating it as a show, not a movie...it was depressing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dtxtrmpt Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Goooooooo Blue Stars!!!! I screamed yesterday when their score was announced in theaters and even more so after seeing their show on the web cast tonight. This corps has done amazing things. Now my fingers are crossed for Phantom! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenon Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 OMG Phantom's performance tonight, again!!! Best crowd reaction shots from the camera in front of the DM podium. The crowd roar was so loud when the Drum Major speared the Head Drum Major and took his place that it almost drowned out the hornline!

Oops, I was wrong about the 15 minutes thing. . . We still have the Cavies Alumni Corps and the Age-Out ceremony before the Cavies and BD scores are announced. Announcement should be around 10:50PM Central. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xenon Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Quick Recap: - BD is given a perfect 20 Visual GE score from one of the VGE judges - VGE - 1st BD, 2nd Phantom, 3rd Cavies - Phantom sweeps Music GE with a 19.80, 0.45 ahead of BD who was 4th in MGE - Phantom takes GE with 39.45. 0.3 ahead of BD and 0.45 ahead of the Cavies - BD sweeps Visual with perfect 20's in both Performance and Ensemble, and a 19.70 in Colorguard for a total of 29.85 - Phantom 5th in Visual a full 1.05 points behind BD - BD takes 1st in all Music Brass captions, but averages 3rd and 4th in the rest of Music - Phantom swept all the rest of Music to come out 0.375 ahead of BD All that Phantom has to do to win it all is to up that Visual score just a little bit.

radchad Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Greetings from Indiana! Phantom and Crown were my favorites from Quarterfinals. Phantom had another stellar performance in Semi's tonight. My god they are so closeee. COME ON PHANTOM! You can do it! Blue stars did amazing in Semi's. I thought so at least. Bluecoats' ballad is still one of my favorite parts of any show this year.
