Blue Devils 2023 Finals

[@moderndayentertainer.9516]

The second I heard that Phantom Blood intro I almost passed out.

[@WormyToothZ]

Jojo reference hahaha

[@proudsmog2]

That intro is one of the most best sounding intros I've ever heard; it's such a bop. Their front ensemble is sooo talented.

[@-Croissant-]

I died at the jojo part

[@Skinnyspellpunk]

The fact that they have 4 tenors is amazing

They did such a good job earlier in the year! I hope this next season goes great for the blue devils! 😊

is that a jojos reference?!

[@MicahtheDrumCorpsPseudoboomer]

no

[@Skinnyspellpunk]

I saw this in person it's so good

[@BlazinPheonix32]

I saw it at Winston salem sitting near the 50. It was insanely good

[@d.holmes5156]

Cirque du Soloeil, not drum corps!

[@HikeYourHeartOut]

3:18 Perfect score for color guard, probably because of this moment

[@kiryusentoku8177]

What type of stand is this.. sutandoo powaah?!..

[@comrade8996]

JOJO

[@522Dusty]

Blue Devils have had some great performances, this was not one of them.

[@USSR1251VR]

I love the stuff where to marimba start glsword fighring with there sticks i love that little stuff but the close up veiw distorts the audio but this a great spot so you can see evertthing thats going on and really get the feel of the battery and horns

[@thuneschmidt-kessy3938]

1:42 the intro “caves” by cody fry?

[@jesuspectre9883]

I don't understand how color guard tricks support the subject and theme.

[@isekai_neo]

I'm sure it'd more to fit the music tbh

[@jesuspectre9883]

@@isekai_neo 👍Yes, it's more to fill the lack of audience participation and to heighten visual interest. But does it fit, thematically?

[@clarkfitzgerald8814]

When has throwing a gun ever fit a show theme?

[@jesuspectre9883]

​@@clarkfitzgerald8814 ​ Thanks for responding. Prepare to be publicly humiliated. 1) Carolina Crown - Relentless - they literally make a drill set in the shape of a gun; whole show about breaking the cycle of violence. 2) Cavaliers 2010- Mad World. "This is my rifle!" 3) Madison Scouts - Band of Brothers; war theme. 4) Blue Stars - War and Peace 5) Bluecoats - To Look for America - Traditional military parades depicted. 6) Cavaliers - Wrong Side of the Tracks, presumed weapons in a train yard 7) Cavaliers - 007 8) Cavaliers - 1992 Revolution and Triumph 9) Cadets - 2010 Toy Soldier 10) Cadets - 2009 West Side Story - Conflict and Resolution Are all shows fitting of rifle use? No, of course not, but many make sense of it, or discard rifles entirely when it doesn't fit at all. Rifles are a remnant from a bygone era and should be phased out, especially if it upends the show's selected theme. In this show, rifle and sabre tricks filled in when there was nothing to do-- tricks replaced substance in the middle part of this show. Tricks had nothing to do with Matisse, in tone, style, history or thematic context, unless they were to progressively drop them, which they didn't.

[@clarkfitzgerald8814]

@@jesuspectre9883 Wow. I'm really humiliated. Your argument sucks btw. I guess everyone should just do a show about guns. And it's not like every corps uses weapons every year with very few exceptions. You are basically mad that the guard is doing guard work???

[@5kScythxs]

Does anyone know what the part (or song) is called on the time stamp 4:14

[@mapachetruco]

[@michaelparker2016]

Gorgeous Performance!!

[@aerator]

Although they are always good, if you watch closely at the M&M you will see the execution is not top notch. Therefore it is very obvious that the judges are biased and give them the top GE scores every year and cheat the more deserving corps.

[@gunner-qf9eh]

Lol. Oh you people never cease to amaze. Keep up the crying and complaining.

[@Eggs732]

The scream tho 3:44

[@CatMurray]

Wow!

[@koroba01]

Drum Corps? It should be renamed Field Orchestra and Head-banging Guitar Corps.

[@pcs56]

How do judges score these shows now?!

[@daskrete]

Every time I listen to this at work I’m like… damn that’s the end? I can’t believe they won but I also forget music isn’t all that important in DCI anymore

[@BerserkRain]

The music itself wasn't the only important thing in DCI since the beginning. Their music content is more demanding then multiple other groups as well as the execution of it. They got 2nd in brass on finals night from 1st in content but 3rd in achievement, which makes sense with how their and others runs went.
