DCI Div I Semifinals

Sara, Heath, Gary and I watched the DCI webcast last night of Semifinals from Pasadena. It was incredible. I love technology. We connected my laptop to the big screen tv and it was like being there, without a sweaty fat guy sitting next to me screaming, GO JOHNNY! in the middle of a ballad. Shhhhh. You are ruining my DVD.

We all agreed that Crown was the most entertaining of the evening. The guard was OUTSTANDING! Very cute show that was marched and played to perfection.

During the Colts performance, Poops had a HUGE closeup!! Way to grab that air time Jennifer!! You looked gorgeous, by the way!

We looked for Jana & Ashley with Bluecoats but were unable to find them. Their show is wonderful but we wished that they had placed alot higher.....today is a new day. GO BLOOOOOOOOOO! Spinning in handcuffs? Yeah, they do.

Regiment's show was elegant and classical as usual. Gorgeous music, great guard work. I hope they can pull into third place today. It was hard to watch their show without Sara being there, but they are still my fav. SUTA!

Blue Devils took 1st place but by a hair. Cadets are coming up in their rearview very quickly. They better watch out. Cadets march at mach speed in their closer, simply amazing.

My cavies were fantastic as always. Not crazy about the boy's costuming but they are clearly the best guard out there right now. Drill? AMAZING. I love Michael Gaines.

SCV had a fabulous show. The guard costuming is beautiful. Great colors, great effect. LOVED the audience screaming EUREKA at one point. Goosebumps.

All of the corps have really beautiful and inventive shows this year. I would hate to be a judge. Good luck to all who are out there marching...we love you and wish you the very best. Safe travels home.
