Glad there was a bit of green and maroon in that blue sandwich ;-)

That was an insane analogy💀

[@popeyesailor9571]

having had members of that record BD corps stay at my place and being old school I think the 2002 Cav's show was the most accurate performance ever.

[@monkeynvtss6894]

oh i wonder what corp will make up most of this list

[@fondleballsxi]

Fr 😒😒

[@CFLPN91]

Watching this makes me miss the old uniforms

[@KyleNally]

So here's a question. Will any corps ever score 100.00, and does anyone think it's even *possible?*

[@loganhunt6307]

theoretically yes, but it would take some stars aligning. i don’t think a perfect overall music score has ever been achieved, because that would require a flawless brass line, percussion, and everything in between, plus they would need the same miracle as BD 2014 when EVERY single GE and visual judge gave a perfect score. even one judge across the panel giving a 19.95/20 immediately eliminates the possibility of a perfect score.

[@kishibe__rohan]

It’s as possible as a corps ever scoring a big fat zero.

[@bodekaanta83]

@@loganhunt6307 now that crown has broken city percussion there might be a chance for crown to do it if like you said a bunch of stars align and a miracle happens

[@CFLPN91]

@LoganToTheMax18 yes they did! And the only corps in history to accomplish that

[@StFidjnr]

the cadets in 2005 OWNED DCI that year 5 out of 5 captions

[@soggybread5406]

blue devils have 20 wins where as the corp with the second amount of wins is the cadets with 10

[@jesuspectre9883]

99.65 was justified by the brilliant concept. Fellini, the filmmaker, surrounded himself with desperate actors and pathetic circus performers. Their hubris, their risk-taking, and their bathos were a near perfect match for this broken, soul-searching, powerful genre of drum corps.

[@seabassmcbigfat]

2014 was just crazy

[@rjust2297]

DCI Blue devils get some! I wish I had my drum kit still. I repented it out with you and I would be pounding it out with you if I had some Styx we're just going to leave that one like it is

[@bricksquad9552]

I doubt that 99.65 will ever be beat.

[@bassguitarplayer09]

Sweet

[@drumloreDCI]

fifth place is now blue devils 2023!

[@kishibe__rohan]

How much award money does the gold medalist receive?

[@thephantasticfool]

I feel like it's none unless it comes from sponsors

[@Ariisbane]

Imagine being .35 off from a perfect score, in music too

[@MicahtheDrumCorpsPseudoboomer]

Why was 2002 and 2005 cropped into a 16:9 aspect ratio?

[@elricb1488]

It was probably recorded in that ratio. Although, I'm not entirely certain of this.

[@MicahtheDrumCorpsPseudoboomer]

@@elricb1488 I have the 2002 and 2005 DVDs, as well as the DCI Essentials Collection: Champions 1 Blu-ray Disc (which has 2005 Cadets), in addition to the DCI Essentials Collection: Champions 2 Blu-ray Disc (which has 2002 Cavaliers). All of the above are in a 4:3 aspect ratio.

[@dfa3366]

Blue Devils 2023 just knocked down Blue Devils 2010 to 6th place.

[@lukasky03]

Comparing scores year to year is pointless.

[@rjust2297]

The cavaliers get some. Stetson

[@nathanjohnson5596]

The Blue Devils have such boring shows. Boring to watch and boring to listen to.

[@CFLPN91]

I wouldn't say they're ALL boring; however, I will say that I'd personally like it if they did majority marching AND playing at the same time instead of just doing their hardest music standing still.

[@ashtong9318]

bluecoats or boston crusaders should have won this year

[@williamsanborn9195]

The judges SERIOUSLY need to stop handing wins to the Blue Devils. Their only good show was 2017. I don’t care what anyone says. Also, DCI peaked with Santa Clara Vanguard in 2018. You can’t change my mind.

[@thebundinator9243]

love that show but bd 2014 was so good

[@BoardieLive]

Metamorph is dogshit. BD 19 > 14 > 18 > 15 > 16 > 17

[@kishibe__rohan]

But what’s the incentive for something like that? DCI is operated by the corps themselves. What do all the corps stand to gain by giving BD all the wins?

[@williamsanborn9195]

@@thebundinator9243 I won’t deny that BD14 was good. It was a great show! Was it worth being given the highest score in history? In my opinion, Tilt was better, so no.

[@thebundinator9243]

@@williamsanborn9195 tilt had one good moment, the rest of it was mediocre

[@NickToThickk]

Bluecoats should have won this year, but I see why they didn't. For example, the trumpets were really dirty with some features/runs (Really sad) because I loved the Trumpet feature during the Keytar solo, but it was dirty. Also, the color guard feature felt really prolonged after the Keytar solo. off topic, but yeah.

[@booker9816]

So, they shouldn't have won this year? I'm confused

[@theangrycows]

@@booker9816 ?

[@NickToThickk]

@@booker9816 I just wanted them to win this year, thats all.

[@macerunner4674]

show was good, but not the best finals run, sad

[@chymnster4445]

BAC should've won, they completely stepped up their game on EVERYTHING. Not to mention their brass was crown level
