Probably my favorite opening hit of 2018 because of the chords.

I like it so far. The Horn Line is their Strong Point. I appreciate the show designer not using recorded voices and just letting the Brass and Drums play. Please replace the solo singer with a Brass Solo or Duet or Small Ensemble. Other than that this will be top 12 for sure.

Yeet Yoot you double-negatived yourself, but I got what you meant. No I was not denied, but I have met a few of their "lead" performers, and based on my background in numerous ensembles as lead, I knew a thing or two that is required to be a successful lead trumpet player. The performers there are not bad, don't get me wrong, but based on the players experiences and talent, none were suited for lead performance. It's the Corps' organizers, they should've recognized that every other corps had these new and powerful players, but they completely ignored the fact that they will need them come finals, if they even make it that far. I'm basing these predictions on past years, the past members who made finals at top 10, and only 10, placed within the first 5 of the competitions that have taken place thus far. Seeing as this year they didn't even make top 10 says a lot of how this year will pan out, the members deserve to make finals, no doubt, but the organizers do not. Hopefully this will shed some light for my accusations. Thank you.

1049berkeley could very much hurt them at the main event, and looking at the group this year they lack a lot of experienced players, these guys are really young this year, the leaderships oldest, in the majority of the sections, are high school seniors, unlike Blue Devils where the youngest is 18 years old.

Elias Sauceda well I get a little upset when an organization denies the players they need and expect to win DCI Championships without a change to there last show, it's exactly the same, go back and look at all the 1st place winners of DCI from the start in the 70s to now, every single one has some sort of Lead Trumpet player. You can't expect to win anything if you are moving backward in terms of performance. That's why no body enjoys high school marching bands, or very few of them are enjoyed, solely for the reason that there is no change in the performance aspects, they are not taking risks and making the show interesting for the audience or the judges. There are shows without these experienced players and they drastically decrease the average rating of the corps. Not trying to completely hate on the Crossmen, it's just extremely aggravating that the corps doesn't contract the players they NEED! Go look at the 2012 show for Crossmen, it's amazing, THERE ARE THE LEAD TRUMPET PLAYERS, and they ranked higher than the past years. Consider it this way, you need emergency care for a life threatening injury and you tell the ambulance to leave you there to die. It's the same concept the corps is denied the players they need so drastically, because they are arrogant. Hopefully this puts a little light on my reasoning for what I have said, whether you read it or not my opinion is the same.

MGNarwhals hold the phone, have you seen ofallon township highschool or broken arrow highschool, im pretty sure what they did does not usually happen in dci and is definitely an interesting spin on the marching arts. Also Bixby for the past few years has just been killing it with their prop design. I don't think you realize that there are more things in life than an amazing lead trumpet. Highschool bands do take risks that dci corps would never think of doing and come out on top at finals.

Cedric Baker Jr. Yeah when at their SA camp they announced that vocalists are going to join, strictly for the reason that the Cadets kicked their ass last year, and the reason was not vocalists, IT IS THE LEAD TRUMPET PLAYERS, Crossmen have NONE. They really have hit a pit fall, and it was quite amusing hearing all the optimism from the leadership at the camp.

brassman84 watch the Blue Devils, you may hate them because they finish first in a lot of comps but it's because they are good, the BD and BlueCoats have a one thing over a lot of other corps and that is EXPERIENCE. They only contracted those with at least 7 years on the instrument. So if you want to see good this is the middle of the pot, and at finals, like every year, the bottom.
