DCI Championships DVD
Quick question for those that have purchased this in the past. First off, is it really almost $100?!?! WOW (Much more then the $35 paid for Top 15 SW Finalists at WGI)
Next, it states on at least the 2008 DVD the full dates of championships (Aug 7-9, 2008).
Do you only get the finals performance of the top 12 or do you also get Quarters and Semis?
Thanks in advance!

Re: DCI Championships DVD
Yes, it's usually $98. I usually buy the DVD/CD combo for $129.
You only get the finals performances of the Top 12, but you get both multi-camera and high camera versions, plus show versions with selected commentary tracks (show designers, judges on the field, etc.)
Pricey, perhaps, but worth a once-a-year purchase, in my book. That's why I own VHS or DVDs of every DCI Finals back to 1987.

Re: DCI Championships DVD
Dunno if it still happens, but the corps get a say as to which performance (quarters/semis/finals) goes on the media.

Mainly SCV. Garfield should not have won that year: one overwhelmingly powerful section does not a drum corps make.Ryan H.

I can't watch 87 VK again until I succeed in scrubbing that Facebook profile pic you used the other day out of my brain.

Well, the CD's arrived today. Time to really see how much LOS had an effect.

Re: DCI Championships DVD
Mah dvd's arrived last night thanks to Mr. UPS dude. I breezed through the Top 7 last night, and woke up to Blue Stars & watching Phantom now.
Love Boston's show.
Maybe it's just me, but I think the high-cam shots are a little on the low side.
