    This was unquestionably the year that Crown had achieved something exceptionally rare in the activity: a signature brass sound, one where you could listen to a portion of their show and know who was performing based on nothing but the sound of the hornline. Very few corps really achieve it, but they all have one thing in common: they're all championship-caliber ensembles.

    The reason I didn’t know this line was so good is because of the crown stereotype this past decade. “If only they had a drumline they could win more championships.” I did not like that they had that reputation. Luckily, their drumline might be close to their 2009 form soon.

    What I love about it the most (and this may be a reflection of that time period in drum corps overall), is that it's the perfect blend of, in layman's terms, old school and new school. It has the exaggerated theatrics of the modern times, but there's also very little narration and absolutely no props for this. The music comes first, and this is just straight up good drum corps. A stellar performance, definitely one that never fails to disappoint.

That shit was so good you can even see Lee Beddis throw his hands in the air and jump up and down between the podium and the stands. These finals recordings and this venue simply do not do this percussion ensemble justice. Legends
