BD wins so much because they’re really really good at everything. They don’t play the insane brass licks that the average fan can’t follow, they play catchy tunes that stay stuck in your head. They have show concepts that aren’t vague and hard to interpret but rather easy to solve if you do some basic background research. What I’m saying is they don’t rely on ONE thing to bring home the gold. They’re the full package.

This was my wife's first time ever seeing a DCI competition in person and it brought her to tears (because it was so overwhelmingly entertaining). I marched DCI in the early eighties and have been trying for years to get her out to a show and boy did the BDs deliver.

imagine someone strolling down the street and hearing this while going about their day/night. the next day, they hear the David Glyde Ghostlight (catchy violin/trumpet part) or the low brass part during the opener and it's in their head. They're thinking, "wow what was that person doing with their speakers on so loudly playing some epic soundtracks?". The next day, going to work walking down the same street (because they dont have a car?-) , but the music isn't heard through their ears, but in their head. Imagine having that stuck in your head. For a loooonnng time. It gets distorted but they have such a thirst to listen to it again. I've had this entire show played in my head 24/7 for the past few months. Its amazing. Imagine not knowing what its called and just being tortured with this constantly in your head but you want to know what its called sooooo badly so you can actually listen to it again!! i'd go INSANE. Made more sense in my head. Ya know, English *eyeroll*

So many salty people because they like Vanguard more or BC more. Why can't anyone have open minds about different drum corps? So what if they win 1st a lot, its just some corps have better shows than others and have better performance runs than others. BD Did deserve that first placement, so did BC, so did vanguard, so did all the other drum corps, all the corps put in all their effort but some more than others. Just have an open mind, maybe then you'll lose the attitude and unnecessary hatred for BD or BC or Vanguard.

I agree with you there. Unless you are competing against them, who cares if they are the proverbial winners. The other corps needed to step up and they have. Everyone has their own preferences, but they need tho recognize a great show when they see one. The repertoire was so difficult to pull off and they did it having fun. I am 35 years removed from my DCI life and love what I see and the direction drum corps is headed.

Mike Secor purist? I think delusional is a more appropriate term. You wanna know why your “golden” age of drum corps didn’t have electronics, uni changes, choreography, or even 3 valved horns? To be blunt, your age just isn’t advanced enough. You can hope & pray that we’ll regress back to playing cheesy jazz while doing circle drill at a 16:5 step size. You can hope and pray for the drumline to stop “dancing like ballerinas” and do the corny “play back and forth on each other’s drums” shit at a standstill. You can even hope and pray for the goddamn front ensemble to just up and disappear. Well guess what, buddy. It’s not happening. Drum corps is consistently evolving, and were simply past your brand of “performance.” Now stop making an ass of yourself, trying to undermine the hard work and dedication of my peers. Shame on you.
