Speaking of construction themes and Americana music, if you ever visit the Arch in St. Louis, make a point of seeing the documentary in the visitor center.

If you haven't seen Columbians this year, do it now!! I think it's one of the most entertaining shows of the summer. There's a recording of today's run on a certain video sharing site....

And if you're watching the livestream, you can rewind while it's underway, so if you're just joining now, you can still watch their performance. You can see why they were named most improved corps this year.

The Open Class portion of the show began and ended with one person waving a flag: Les Stentors' drum major did so before giving her salute, and Spartans show ends with a prop being moved toward the center as one guard member doing so.

Given the past decade's trends in drum corps, I would argue that it's more conformist to not wear a hat than to wear one.

First time seeing Jersey Surf's show. More corps should set that kind of performance as their baseline: it's short and simple but it's very entertaining. Figure out how to do that before you start layering on difficulty and pretension.

Hadn't seen Madison Scouts's show before. The Stan Kenton section is pretty good; I wish the rest of the show were at that level.

At the cinema in the Cleveland suburb of Valley View, a storm cut the satellite feed for about five minutes, so we missed the ending of Pacific Crest's show and most of the following interlude (during which they apparently discussed the Open Class results), but it was up and running for Blue Knights. (While I'm not a big fan of their show, I do think the judges were right that they bested Crossmen tonight.) However, it was frequently buffering from then until intermission. After that, all was well again.
The stream and cinema showing were my first time this year seeing Cascades, Surf, Genesis, Scouts, Troopers, Stars, Regiment, Mandarins, Cadets, and Crusaders. I already commented on Surf and Scouts. (I had heard Stars, Regiment, and Crusaders in standstill performances Monday.) Cascades seemed good enough to make Semis. Genesis was too cutesy. Troopers were the biggest revelation. I had seen some snippets of their prop before tonight (Mandarins's props also). It's interesting that what has been a very traditionalist corps has pleased fans in successive years with the use of cello and harmonica. it's also interesting that they've managed to return to Finals while largely maintaining their identity. Regiment and Cadets feel like corps going through the motions, albeit at a pretty high level of achievement. I'm not a fan of either show, so far. Mandarins' show was hot and cold for me; I do wish they didn't use so much recorded singing. Nina Simone is dead and you shouldn't make her performance part of your show. I didn't like it when Natalie Cole did that with the ghost of her father either.
Crusaders are good. And they beat Crown less than a week ago. Neither corps had their best run tonight, I think. My favorite tonight was Bluecoats. Six of eleven judges had Blue Devils in first. But the other five judges' first places went to Crown (3), Bluecoats (1), and Cavaliers (1). I think it's still a four-horse race, but obviously BD remains the odds-on favorite.
Bless Steve Rondinaro for once again daring to express some negative opinions about certain drum corps trends during DCI's official broadcast.
And phooey to DCI for resurfacing the dumb "change is good" video they shared during last year's finals. The whole thing suffers from a huge lack of self-awareness even as it pretends the opposite.

I can't believe that guy is still around. He was doing the broadcast on PBS 45 years ago. 1979 was great. He was in the booth, along with Maynard Ferguson going color. Maynard was a hoot.

Having seen the top 4 multiple times live this season… Devils are Devils Crown wrung about all they could out that show last night.I’m not saying they had their best run, but was about as good as I have seen them live. A friend of mine described it as an Indiana Class A Band/BOA show and they aren’t wrong. Bluecoats sometimes feels like they are performing for themselves as much as anyone this year. As opposed to last year where that keytar solo was 110% fan engagement. Well executed show and I can respect that, but I am not going to celebrate it. Just not my cup of tea. Crusaders had maybe their worst run of the year. Clearly the worst run in my multiple live viewings. Worse than end of practice runs I saw in Texas. Being relegated to the 4th spot in semis will be hard to overcome, but I think they can. I will be in Lucas all day today. It is tough work, but someone has to do it.

I briefly met Maynard once in 1978, after a show at some school in Indiana. Three HS friends and I had driven to see the band, and there was no kind of meet & greet after the show. But one of my buddies decided that he wasn't leaving until he met Maynard. Somehow (it was 45 years ago) he got us "backstage" (the bandroom, or wherever) and there was Maynard, in all his 1970's glory. Even had a mixed drink of some kind. (It was the 70's.) I have zero recollection of what he said to us or us to him, but I can distinctly remember how kind and gracious he was to the four kids who had found their way back there, infringing on his time. He couldn't have been nicer. The man was a treasure.

We backed him on a couple tunes and he performed with the marching band at halftime of the football game. He was in town the day before and came by practice. I’m pretty sure he had been in the bottle already, but he was hilarious.

Before I put up the semis schedule I just wanted to share my thoughts on last night.
Blue Devils are Blue Devils. Some may not like what they do, but you can't deny they do it well. While it's not the outright dominate win I was expecting after Atlanta, it's going to still be an impressive & deserving victory if they can pull it off.
Out of 2-4, I honestly would've put Bluecoats in 2nd last night. Out of all the times of the time I've seen them on Flo, that was easily their best run and easily the cleanest that Bump has been. Not the best run from Crown and certainly not the best run from Boston (that poor piccolo trumpet), but I have no doubt both of them will clean it up for tonight.
Colts! I feel like they've kind of been flying under the radar this season, but they're peaking at the right time. And it's paying off with them breaking 90 for the first time in corps history, and looking to get their first single-place finish.
Out of the potential finalists, the one thats really disappointing for me is the Blue Stars. I alluded to this after seeing them in Mankato, that something just sort of felt off design-wise between this year and last year's shows and I think that's holding them back. It's a shame because musically, they are definitely on par with last year. But I really thought Blue Stars would take that next step after how well they did last year, and I thought they would've at least been in the mix with Cadets/Mandarins/Phantom for that Top 5.

And while I haven't seen their show performed live, that was my sense in the cinema, and looking around the internet, I see a lot of people have made similar comments. This actually connects to my biggest complaint about the video they showed. It opens with a quote from Helen Keller: "The heresy of one age becomes the orthodoxy of the next." I don't know how much to blame the various talking heads, some of whom may not have known how their comments would be used to support that position, but not one of them perceived its obvious consequence.

It would be more impressive if he leveled the same criticism at Crown and Bloo. I sat in front of Crown’s speaker last night and it sure sounded like a ton of individual mics pushed through the speakers with synth reinforcement on their hits.

I sat in front of Crown’s speaker last night and it sure sounded like a ton of individual mics pushed through the speakers with synth reinforcement on their hits. That's interesting to hear. In the past week, I saw Crown (and BD) live in Pittsburgh and Bluecoats live (but not judged) in Canton, and in contrast to a number of lower-ranking corps, I thought they both sounded great and natural (at least by the standards of the past five years), but I was sitting high up in both cases. They also sounded much better to me on the stream yesterday than Phantom. Last year I thought Bluecoats at both Kent State and Akron (the latter in standstill) sounded wonderful if perhaps a little overamplified during the keytar solo but I noticed on another forum that someone who was too near their speakers at DCI Finals complained that it was painfully loud. Similarly, at the Buckeye Invitational in 2021, I was sitting pretty high up and I thought Lakota West should win (thanks to ohioguy2 , we know they placed fourth). When I mentioned that a week or two later to someone else who had been there, they said that sitting down low, it was very evident when West's performers got near their sideline microphones, because their sound suddenly increased. One specific grumble I have about the DCI learn to live with change video that I also may have mentioned last year is the fellow* who says that in the past, the shows were only aimed at the center section, but now they're designed to appeal to everyone. That is flatly untrue. Now if you're too close or too far from a speaker, you get a vastly different impression of the show than someone who is in the very specific sweet spot the corps are aiming for. That particular speaker is either disingenuous or very confused. *Huh, am I right (if very belatedly realizing) to recall that every last speaker in the video is male?

Sorry for derailing a little bit more, but these comments triggered some memories of seeing Maynard in the mid 1980's when he was touring with his jazz fusion band (Saw him at Harrison County High School in KY). He was a treasure indeed!
(Side note - one of the issues I suffer from with my medical situation I've outlined elsewhere is some brain damage, so whenever something triggers a memory it is a great thing for me, hence my commenting.)

I will have a different perspective tonight. I’m in the same side but up about 25 rows and slightly offset from the same speaker as last night.

BK and the Crossmen both put on great shows today working to get the 12 spot. I think BK pulled it out but want to get other opinions!
Your thoughts on the battle for the last finals spot?
