@Micah the Nerd Saxophonist Hi Micah. Yeah, schlepping those kits was quite the thing. The tenors played the kits, and since there were six of them, that equaled *six* kits! Each kit was fastened in place on its own super heavy, wheeled, shin-busting platform. From the back of the drum trailer, they were always the first unloaded and last loaded, lining up longways down the center pathway. Always with the focused and stressed facial expressions of someone who's FML gingerly heaving a refrigerator up a stairwell, I remember the tenor players ferrying those raucous calamities up and down that thunderous ramp.

I have a question if you don’t mind- I’m a rising high school sophomore and last year as a freshmen I was the lead trumpet for marching band. I’m a lifetime DCI fan with a dad who was a Phantom drum major. I think I’m gonna start dci the summer before senior year but I’m not sure if I wanna go for a big corp like the bluecoats, or if I wanna start with a smaller corp just to get settled into the DCI life. Any thoughts?

I wouldn't call that a rumor. They were very open about the fact that the 96 count front to box ( or however many counts) was rewritten musically in order to finish the visual phrase. In fact, I think there was a vignette on the broadcast that year that verifies the design decisions.

To the degree that people gossiped about, it was just gossip. They didn't write the drill for a show and then throw some music to it. But obviously this is a very visually oriented theme, and so there will be major visual moments designed into the show. That's pretty par for the course these days.

Your comment at the end of the show of how “that went so fast” should really resonate with those of us that have performed out there whether it’s DCI or BOA, one moment you’re setting up and in the blink of an eye you’re snapping your horn down and the crowd is going wild. I suppose the entire season is summed up in that moment; everything happened so quick and you barely realize it, but you were there.

There seems to be a lack of focus on the music which, for me personally, really ruins the immersion. I think with a couple years time we will see a more refined version of drum corps where they can have props but not take away from the show.

I think it's generally agreed that the Cavies' early 2000s shows feature the most insane drill the activity has ever seen. A few years ago I watched a video interview on Facebook that featured, among others, the drum major from '02. He shared a few fun facts on that year: - The corps tied for first in 2000. In 2001, they spent basically the entire season sucking until the very last week because the show was SO HARD - it literally took them the entire season to get it clean. So going into '02, they really had a chip on their shoulder, feeling like they had something to prove. - This was the year they made the key change from G bugles to Bb, which took a lot of adjustment for everybody involved. - The average age of the corps was much older than usual (around 20), and most of the members were vets, so the ensemble was unusually experienced.

So fun fact: this held the record for the highest score (99.15) until 2014, when the Blue Devils broke it with their show, Felliniesque (99.65). The Cavaliers won every caption and sub-caption except percussion, which The Cadets won. This was a completely original program; music, drill, everything. A true masterpiece through and through, and it singlehandedly changed DCI forever. It'll always have a special place in my heart!

Was excited for this one. Been asking for it. Was the show that got me into DCI in 2002. Was in Highschool band at the time, during my marching season. The thing about memorizing drill is it comes naturally after the amount of hours you put into the show. These people, and us, run the show so many times that it just becomes muscle memory really. It's really slow going at the start when they are giving you commands and telling individuals where to go and when to be there. We had to start learning our shows before school even started, every year. We'd show up to school months before for the day, in the summer, standing outside learning drill in the hot sun. It was a lot of work, but the payoff to execute it in front of an audience was worth the time you invested. To hear them cheer for you and watch. When I saw this show, it was my first exposure to people doing it at a much higher level than I was at and it inspired me to work harder.

Courtney... Love ur reaction to this show. It has been by far and wide my absolute most favorite show of all time from any corp. It's what introduced me to the Cavaliers and made me their long time absolute fan. There is no way to describe the amount of thought and complexity put into this show in just a few sentences or paragraphs. If I had to put it into a short sentence I would say "This is by far the utterly most well put together show from top to bottom". There is not a single element in this show where one doesn't go "Wow!!! That was sick as fuck"! It's one of those once in a generation type shows where all the stars line up and u get an eclipse of harmony from every faucet of the corp. If I were reacting to this video having already seen it like a bazhillion times in the last nearly two decades I would have to pause just about every five seconds to appreciate and comment on every little detail that I see and hear having been a musician myself my entire life and having marched in my high school marching band in the early 2000's. And I also love how u said "Love those drums" referring to the tenor drums. That's what I actually played in my high school marching band and it was incredibly challenging and fun at the same time! :) My recommendation??? Check out "Blue Coats Tilt Full Show". Another amazing show by a corp that I never though I would like. The ending is especially riveting!

Jangle our nerves, Cavies. :) It would have been easy although I perfectly understand how it might not have been in sync with the general feel of the piece they were playing. It was a beautiful show. The drill was mesmerizing (yes, I copied a word from another fan). With my new bride, I was there enjoying my first contest in 35 years. The Green Machine lived up to its nickname. The corps and the drum major made a big "C" with their right arm if anyone could figure that out. The drum major did it in the introduction and the whole corps did in the helter skelter part as they circled (squared?) the guard.

Some of the greatest visuals I've ever seen. I can't even comprehend how some of the drill is performed, such as the drill at 8:30.

Does anyone know who did their drill designs back then and where they are now?

Wasn't it still Gaines at the time?

sam signorelli imma do some research and try to find out. I’m not as familiar with their staff.

@@dougSS24 Given all the sequential stuff, I'd bet it WAS Gaines....that's one of the hallmarks of his drill when he was with Cavies.

I think my only gripe with the cavaliers is every time I watch a video, I find myself thinking they’re not particularly loud. I’ve seen them in person and felt differently then, but in video they don’t feel as powerful to me

Before the true dawn of electronic amplification of hornlines. Corps size was only 128 or 135 at the time as well. Smaller hornlines.
