I decided when I heard the Scouts play Strawberry Soup that there was NO WAY I wouldnn't march drum corps. I was 14. I marched 4 years and taught one.
One tune from the Scouts changed my life in a way I never thought possible.
@MrSCSInc They actually got out of the D&BC business altogether and joined up with Canadian Brass and did "An Evening of brass Theatre," which evolved into Blast! over the years. I wish they would've stayed on the football field.
People seem to forget this is the year the Colts broke into the top 12 and made the largest jump in one year in drum corps history!!!!!!! The year of the Colt 45's true rookies of the year.
@Inspadave I bet your right. Saw Cadets a couple of times in 93.....it was real obvious this corps was in a groove when I saw them in Hershey....2nd week of July. They were like a machine then...
Obviously, I thumbs-upped your video here, because your putting up at all is great. But out of the dozens of "moments" you see as being the single "best" moments from the entire 1993 season, not ONE of them happens to be a drum feature? That's a pretty big percentage of moments to disregard.
I was lucky enough to see all of these corps live that year. I miss these days back when BD still played good, crowd friendly music (they pulled off Don Ellis in a great way!).
@lflagr They were 20 years ahead of their time and so radically different to anyone else that quite frankly, the judges had no idea what to do with them.
I still think there is tons more power in the G horns than the Bb horns...Excellent video, this was also one of my favorite years, lots of great corps with some pretty exciting shows, and rain for the first time on Finals night. WOW!!! Keep up the good work, man!!
I marched in 93 at Southwind and was standing high in the Left end zone for Blue Devils finals show. The clip you had at about 4:30 was one of my favorite memories. The video from DCI doesn't show it well, but the percussion judge gets CREAMED by the contra line and crawls out from under the battery there, it was awesome!
This is my favorite year in DCI. Blue Devils brought a new level of musical difficulty tot he sport, Phantom pulled at the heart stings for the first time in a while (in my opinion), Star totally changed the shape of drum corps (once again, In my opinion), and the Cadets showed us what a flawless visual program looked like. But most importantly, everyone just had really cool shows that year :)
The DCI shows of the 1990s, in my opinion, had a lot more melody and seemed more accessible to the fans whereas the shows of nowadays seem more theatrical and esoteric. The shows of nowadays (at least most of them), aren't as gutsy as they were during the 20th century. Back then, corps probably didn't worry about their shows having to tell a story. They probably only worried about having loud and formidable horns lines (G-Bugles back then) and drum lines. Great stuff!
OMG!! at 4:09 watch the 2nd to last tuba on the right side of the tuba line he puts his hands down and walks with his tuba up and his hands down epic!! HAH
Thank you for that amazing trip down memory lane. That was the summer after I graduated high school and marched my first year in senior drum corp in DCA. We all followed those corps religiously. At the time I remember that season being criticized for a lack of audience appeal, but looking back it was a season of innovation and now in perspective - MANY great unforgettable moments.
And Fire of Eternal Glory ALWAYS gets me choked up. What a great performance by Phantom!
DCI hasn't had any audience appeal since George Hopkins started calling the shots, turning DCI into Bands of America. I look on these shows fondly as what drum corps really was, and what it no longer is.
Dude...what the hell crawled up your vagina and died? DCI simply isn't the same activity it was back in 1993....drum corps has evolved and changed. Stop being a fucking dinosaur.
I just watched this whole DVD like last week... had chills like the entire time. Had chills the entire time watching this too. Damn... and look at DCI today... what has happened?
Well...think about it this way. In some crazy alternate dimension in a twisted morphed version of our universe, Star won in 1993, stayed in DCI, and has the most number of wins at finals with Phantom in a close second. Oh...and DCI still has g-bugles.
AHH 1993. The year I lost my drum corps virginity. The great John DeNovi (marching instructor) told me to watch PBS early Sunday AM to watch their rebroadcast of the 93 finals. Being a drummer/perc. I was sucked in by the Scouts and floored by Phantom. Later years, I was and still floored by Star.
Great Job once again Jeremy! 1993 was a great year for DCI. Star of Indiana's show was very... interesting.. to say the least IMO XD Thanks for making a great video once again x) Keep 'em coming!
WOW! My favorite year of DCI. Every show was top notch! You didn't end it with Phantom, I can see why though. Stars closing statement that year was just WOW!
Oh Jeremy how I have been waiting for this... Best Xmas present ever! And no matter what anyone says, 5:17 leads into the coolest and GE-est move ever. I've yet to see AND hear one that tops it. And oh yeah, SUMMERTIME! Colts Top 12 baby!
I have to say that is my favorite bluecoats closer, gets me everytime. XD

Several note worthy things happened in '93. I think '93 is the last year of DCI of yesteryear and '94 is the beginning of more of what we see today.
