Good season, so competitive, so glad Bluecoats won, and Boston Crusaders were on fire. BD music selection was good, MYND BLEW MY MYND. Promethean never reached its potential, Vagabond is amazing. Mandarins DID SOOO GOOD, TGEY DESERVE MORE RECOGNITION. BLUE STAR AT 8th LETS GO. Colts/Troops rivalry was tense, but both corps did great. Cavies, love you guys, but staff needs to lock in next season, Madison Scouts did a great job!!!
I hope soo !!! They really are soo goood all around atleast for my preference. such a good brass line visuals could use alittle work but still great and definitely my favorite guard and percussion since 2017
@@kenimerlewis It would have been this year if Bluecoats hadn't doubled their brass volume by seriously artificial means, not to mention the ff treble synth line playing in the final minute or two.
What a great year! The whole of the top 12 were fantastic! Enjoyed every show. As a 90s marcher it has taken me so long to get used to all the "extra shit" that didnt exist when I marched with Madison. This year blew me away. I cannot for the life of me, remember when I have loved every show in the top 12. Amazing performers each one of you. Be proud of what you did. You will remember it for the rest of your life. - Old drum corps participant and fan
After being a bando and mega fan of dci for two years, I will never forget the indescribable feeling of awe when I stood on the field during that ceremony with my family at the Colts.
It's really awesome to hear the scores, but extremely frustrating that we used to be able to watch ALL of the final championship LIVE without a pay wall. I looked forward to every August on PBS, and can't afford a subscription service for one event. Can you go back to just airing live for the ones of us who are just struggling to get by?
Not missing much, pay a pretty penny for subscription then as Phantom was starting their show the buffing started and then a black screen. Tried all sorts of things, signing out, then back in, nothing, unplugging my internet (Flo's suggestion) nothing, waiting and trying again and again, nothing. Did not know what happened until I was able to go to the DCI site and get the scores. I agree with you, ditch FloMarching and strike a deal with PBS.
I am a HARD Core Carolina Fan! And I AM SOOOOOOOOO PROUD OF THE BLUE COATS!!! 😭😭😭 Your show captivated me from the SECOND yoy stepped foot on the field!!
So glad to see Santa Clara back!.... Not sure we'll ever see the cadets again. Really happy to see phantom high on the list. But particularly happy for the blue coats. Congratulations.
Who would have thought in 1980, during the East Coast heyday of the 27th Lancers, Bridgemen, and Garfield Cadets, that all three of those immensely popular and entertaining corps would cease to exist...and the only ones left standing would be the Boston Crusaders (finishing ahead of the Blue Devils) and the Crossmen.
They're gone forever. All because the plaintiff couldn't negotiate a reasonable settlement. She ruthlessly took down the corps for an event that happened 40 years ago, thus destroying a great artistic opportunity for young people in this country.
@organboi, it was sexual abuse, I wouldn't say it's a situation of forgive and forget. It sucks for the corps members that the Cadets are gone. But them being forced to fold was their own fault. Given the fact that this was the second instance within 2 years that it came out that a staff member had engaged in sexual misconduct, that corps in all liklihood had a culture that reinforced the behavior and these are the consequences for not nipping it in the butt.
btw, how is it 2024 and you can't simply buy a digital recording of the finals stream? Flomarching doesn't enable audio on replays and is a scam service. So much history lost for no reason. DCI should do better.
@DubABattery I want Boston to win so badly. They've never claimed a gold medal before, and if they can do it in 2025, that would be a dream come true for me
funny individual yells from crowd: 15:27 - "oh yeah" breaks the silence 20:19 - vomiting 20:58 - echo then silence makes it funny 23:04 - i'm so proooouuuuuddddd..........
I’m not the biggest fan of the coats most recent shows, nor am I the biggest fan of the impact “down side up” had on dci. But man, a coats win was long overdue. Congratulations and GGs to them
I actually agree with this take. Down Side Up by itself is a good show imo, but I don't love the ripple effect that it had on the activity in the years following.
I can't believe they removed the full corps mini-performance after every announcement! Why do we *only* get 5-9 DMs and color guard doing a wiggle thingy every time a score is announced? We want full concerts here man, witlf!
@cassandragarcia5548 they also have the Rennicks. As long as those two are there, that award is pretty much SCV's to lose. The fact that their books are good enough to be the focal point of a show with comparatively weaker brass features is actually insane. .
Bloo definitely deserved that win. Personality crown was my favorite with troopers in 2nd and Phantom in 3rd but they definitely deserved the fan favorite. Wish crown got some type of award though
Yall wrong for not streaming the victory run honestly
Tell me about it's 2024 who's not streaming live very weak from D C I come on
are coats making their own production like bd has in the past?
@@theincompletepackageI hope so
@@theincompletepackage Maybe. But DCI always recorded the Victory Run. And as of late streamed it. Seems odd they didn't for the Coats this year.
I was just thinking the same thing
DAMN BRO I DIDNT KNOW JESUS WAS A TROOPERS DRUM MAJOR??!?
That mane is majestic
@@jasonstraight1320 the walk though
I love how this year their bloos drum majors had 2014 uniforms on and they got first place in championships. It’s poetic in its own way imo
I mean 2014 + 10 = 2024, so that was a real big comeback
They went undefeated too, just like BD did that year @@Conebob900
Way to go Phantom Regiment! Love that SCV came back strong after being away last season.

Could not have described this season any better myself
@@chasebeck4385 fr
Summed it up perfectly
This is spot on
it still doesn't feel right not seeing and hearing scores for the Cadets :(
Yeah, Sad, maybe finals would have shook out differently
y'all are sleeping on Boston going from bottom 12 to 2nd in just 6-7 years, and even beating out to Devil's! Congrats BAC .././...
Yesss! They are 100% winning a championship within the next 5 years
I hope soo !!! They really are soo goood all around atleast for my preference. such a good brass line visuals could use alittle work but still great and definitely my favorite guard and percussion since 2017
this is boston's T/LT. They will win in 2026.
I give them a year, 2 tops and they will finally get their first taste of Gold

Bluecoats had it all season
Vanguard is underrated, prove me wrong!
Can’t prove you wrong
Underrated? You're so wrong. PROOF?--- "Babylon." Recall that 2018 show? And they won championships with a very high score.
WTH was SCV doing to get that high percussion award!?? I thought that was gonna be Boston
Makes sense tho
Boston choked at finals again. They got 3rd...
SCV 🧼
SCV... had a superior Book and Execution
