No, you're thinking of the Bluecoats.

You're right, and we saw what happened in Pasadena. BC kinda reached a plateau didn't they?

Anyway, I made some notes last year in my program about Crown. They had some minor control issues in the horn line last year especially during the more lyrical parts of their show. The guard protrayed their role and characters very well, one of the best of the night. Drums were a little thin though. Has that been a problem for them all along or am I just out to lunch?

Thin? Drums were a huge problem for Crown prior to 07' (Lots of 12th place finishes finals night)

But last year and this year are 100% turnarounds. One tenth under BD and 2 tenths above Phantom at the last show in drums. So I would say you are a bit out to lunch. :wink:
