gregorydf01 Posted August 12, 2023 Posted August 12, 2023 Crown was unreal in the dome, just amazing! Ovations in the middle of the show. The crowd response was electric! I am pulling for crown to pull out the upset and take first, however the execution of BD is so hard to beat. Tubalord11 1 Quote

Expand I think Crown has the power and potential to take BD tomorrow if they don’t tonight. I think they can have a better run in their front ensemble, but tomorrows panel is especially good for Crown, so I think if it happens, tomorrow will be the night. gregorydf01 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 12, 2023 Posted August 12, 2023 Well, I don’t really get these scores, don’t understand how crown went down, I will admit bloo did have their best run yet, but I think crown can go back up, as long as they medal I’m happy though. Good luck to everyone tomorrow! gregorydf01 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 12, 2023 Posted August 12, 2023 Good evening everyone!!! It's almost time for finals to begin!!!! I'm hoping Crown or at this point Bloo can win, and while I love BD'S show this year and they will probably win, I would love an upset! Hoping PR can pull in to 6th and troopers can finish top 10 and break into the 90's. It will be a great evening of DCI regardless of the scores, and here are my final preds before it's over: 1st: BD(guard/visual/GE) 2nd: Crown(Brass) 3rd: Bloo 4th: BAC 5th: Cadets 6th: PR 7th: Mandarins 8th: Cavaliers(perc) 9th: Colts 10th: Troopers 11th: Blue Stars 12th: Blue Knights GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!! LEAVE IT ALL OUT ON THE FIELD TONIGHT!!! Rubisco 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 12, 2023 Posted August 12, 2023 WOW MARINE BUGLE CORE! That was a spectacular performance! They have been absolutely killing it these last few years. Everyone was on fire, especially those soloist, and the drumline was just laying it down! Rubisco 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 12, 2023 Posted August 12, 2023 Great performance for Blue Knights! I'm so happy they are back in finals, and very well deserved. They have come so for from where they started this season, and ik they will be back stronger and better next season! Great job BK!! Rubisco 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 12, 2023 Posted August 12, 2023 Killer run by blue stars! They don't want to be 11th tonight, and they defiantly gave troopers and maybe colts a run for their money. Their soloist were on fire the entire show, and that brass is just so good! Great final run BS! Rubisco 1 Quote
Rubisco Posted August 12, 2023 Posted August 12, 2023 I'm watching tonight. Enjoying everything so far! Tubalord11 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 12, 2023 Posted August 12, 2023 Troopers are just SO FREAKING GOOD! Hands down coolest solo in dci, even more so than keytar(IMO)!!!! I mean they just blew the roof off of LOS! Has to be one of if not my favorite show of the year, yet I say that for many cores! They have improved so much throughout the season and left it all out there tonight! All their soloist were flawless tonight, and they just march the heck out of the show. GO TROOPERS! gregorydf01 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 12, 2023 Posted August 12, 2023 Beautiful performance Colts! Not my favorite show design wise but I love the music, and they played the heck out of it! I'm so happy to see how far they've come after last season. This program has a very bright future ahead of them. Amazing season Colts!! gregorydf01 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 12, 2023 Posted August 12, 2023 Holy crap Cavies!!! This show has grown on me so much, at it's just such an ear pleaser! and that percussion section, God's Work! They really know how to make crowd favorite shows year after year. What a phenomenal season they have had. Great job Cavalries! gregorydf01 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 13, 2023 Posted August 13, 2023 PHANTOM FREAKING REGIMETN!!!! That is how you end the season! Best run of the season BY FAR! They want 6th place, and I think they could take it. Shed my first tears of the night! How far they have come this season this year is just incredible. Thank you Phantom for this show, and for a wonderful year! SUTA!!! gregorydf01 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 13, 2023 Posted August 13, 2023 Mandarins!!!! I'm still amazed by what they have been able to do this year. LOVE LOVE LOVE the brass book! It's such a fun, energetic, and super entertaining show!! The props are crazy, the trombone players are just so freaking good(and the trumpet), I mean how can you not like this show! I CAN NOT wait to see what they bring next year! Congrats Mandis on a phenomenal season!!! gregorydf01 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 13, 2023 Posted August 13, 2023 THATS HOW YOU DO IT CADETS!!! Absolutely threw down! This has to be my favorite cadets show since 2015! Everyone was so tight, soloist were on fire, percussion just killed it!! I mean I'm just speechless. AMAZING JOB CADETS!!!! gregorydf01 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 13, 2023 Posted August 13, 2023 BAC!!! BEST RUN OF THE SEASON! Guard is insane! Perc is insane! I will admit, the brass, while was amazing, could have been a little better from my ears. I'd love for them to medal, but I don't see it happening unless Bloo has a bad run or crowns perc gets tanked. my favorite BAC show thought, was such a treat all season long, especially live! gregorydf01 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 13, 2023 Posted August 13, 2023 CAROLINA CROWN!!! A phenomenal run to finish an incredible season. I will admit, I'm worried a good amount. Seems they upped the electornics volume a ton, which was a very bad call imo, hopefully it wasn't as bad in the stadium as on flo, but regardless a fantastic season. BEST BRASS IN DCI!!! And congrats to their perc for really stepping it up this season! gregorydf01 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 13, 2023 Posted August 13, 2023 That was a musically masterpiece Bloo. I will admit, will i don't like the theme or narration and design, they sound really really good, definitely will be second, would love for them to win. Great job Bloo! gregorydf01 and Parkwoodmom 2 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 13, 2023 Posted August 13, 2023 Another masterclass from BD, not much else to say! They just know how to bring the top show year after year, and I LOVE their music this year sm! Another great season from the Blue Devils! Here are my final predictions for the night. I could see BAC and Crown, Cadets PR and Mandis, and Blue Stars, troopers getting different placements: 1st: Blue Devils(guard/visual/GE) 2nd: Bluecoats 3rd: Carolina Crown(brass) 4th: BAC 5th: Cadets 6th: Phantom Regiment 7th: Mandarins 8th: Cavalries(perc) 9th: Colts 10th: Troopers 11th: Blue Stars 12th: Blue Knights Congrats to all the cores on yet another amazing year of DCI! It's probably my favorite season overall since 2016. Everyone like EVERYONE was so good this year! Thank you to all the performers for an amazing summer of DCI! gregorydf01 and Parkwoodmom 2 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 13, 2023 Posted August 13, 2023 Finals Scores/Captions BD:Visual,GE,Guard Crown: Brass Cavalries: Percussion 1st: Blue Devils: 98.975 2nd: Bluecoats: 97.738 3rd: Carolina Crown: 97.663 4th: Boston Crusaders: 96.925 5th: Cadets: 94.313 6th: Mandarins: 93.775 7th: Phantom Regiment: 92.988 8th: Cavalries: 92.125 9th: Colts: 90.263 10th: Troopers: 89.475 11th: Blue Stars: 88.625 12th: Blue Knights: 86.375 gregorydf01 1 Quote
Rubisco Posted August 13, 2023 Posted August 13, 2023 Absolutely amazing performances tonight. Congrats to all the corps! And to the Blue Devils on their 3rd championship in a row! The Bluecoats and Carolina Crown both performed shows that rank among their best. It could have gone either way, but overall I agree that the Bluecoats' visual performance and design gap should have put them over Crown's music performance gap. Tubalord11 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted August 13, 2023 Posted August 13, 2023 Looks like Crown was 3rd only bc of overall visual which really sucks, but getting 2nd in GE is HUGE for them, and 3rd in Perc. Boston getting 5th in perc is super shocking, but it goes to show just how competitive this season was. Congratulations again to all the cores, can't wait for next season!!! gregorydf01 1 Quote
CloudFuel Posted August 14, 2023 Posted August 14, 2023 What an incredible season! Here's to hoping we see SCV back in the mix in 2024.. 🙏 Tubalord11 1 Quote
