    Probably one of the most underrated shows in DCI history. It seems to have just fallen out of the community’s collective memory over the years.

    Watching the brass staff in the front rows going absolutely nuts because the hornline is untouchable and on fire. It is heart wrenching.

      This was unquestionably the year that Crown had achieved something exceptionally rare in the activity: a signature brass sound, one where you could listen to a portion of their show and know who was performing based on nothing but the sound of the hornline. Very few corps really achieve it, but they all have one thing in common: they're all championship-caliber ensembles.

    What the hell? I had no idea that crown had a drumline that got second place. And they’re really good too. It took me awhile to get into this show but I like how unique it is. Nothing like I’ve ever seen.

    • @colinkelly8393
      @colinkelly8393 4 года назад +12

      The reason I didn’t know this line was so good is because of the crown stereotype this past decade. “If only they had a drumline they could win more championships.” I did not like that they had that reputation. Luckily, their drumline might be close to their 2009 form soon.

      @@colinkelly8393 honestly if you look back at their scores throughout the years it was only a few years like 12-15 where their drumline was lower than the rest of the corps. I believe they won a regional or 2 in drums in 2016.

    What I love about it the most (and this may be a reflection of that time period in drum corps overall), is that it's the perfect blend of, in layman's terms, old school and new school. It has the exaggerated theatrics of the modern times, but there's also very little narration and absolutely no props for this. The music comes first, and this is just straight up good drum corps. A stellar performance, definitely one that never fails to disappoint.

      Even though I really do love modern corps myself, I do put music first when writing my shows as well. I never even think of show designing because I am a composer who loves brass impacts and intense drum features lol 🤣.

    7:45 - 7:58 was absolutely nails for the battery. I was in the stands wanting to throw something out of frustration because JJ was standing in front of the front ensemble. That shit was so good you can even see Lee Beddis throw his hands in the air and jump up and down between the podium and the stands. These finals recordings and this venue simply do not do this percussion ensemble justice. Legends

Even the gradient color guard flags are the same despite being a different color. In 2010 tho, they both run off together instead of just the one in 2009.
