Well, the best one I've ever seen was by the band that I am now in (it's a high school band). It was done when I was in middle school and my band was taken to see it. All of a sudden, I forgot the name, but it was so awesome to see!

Who was it in the DCI last year that did the 007 show? That thing kicked some royal rear.
As for performing, my favorite set was the one I did freshman year... If you guys know Rhythm and Brass, the main percussionist (David Gluck) came in and worked with us on a pilot of his Dark Side of the Moon/Wizard of Oz show. It was a *lot* of fun, not to mention I'm a little partial to it, as it was my first year of marching.

Their 2002 show was awesome as well, though i've only seen that one on tape.

The best I've EVER seen was the Cavaliers, 2002. The best I've ever done, would be last year's show. It was a Spanish show. We choreographed an awesome sword fight between one of our drum majors and a saxophone player. They were fighting over our majorette.
I think this year will be cooler, though. We're gonna have a Midieval show with fights between King Arthur and Morgana, with a disappearing act at the end. ^^ Itll be friggin awesome.

I think that the way my band did Les Mis last year was awesome.
We played the work song, on my own, I dreamed a dream, At the end of the day, do you hear the people sing, and Master of the house. In the middle of master of the house there is a percussion break. Well, 8 people in my band (including me) got together and we did a "hand dance" in the middle of the song. Everyone loved it. It was so awesome.

My favorite show that I have ever seen was done by a high school in the division below us (they're 4A instead of 5A) they did a chinese show three years ago and they had a huge chinese temple like thing in the back which the drumline came through wearing one of those chinese dragons, they burst out of it and started a drumline feature to start one of the movements. I loved it (plus the pit had real tykos)
My favorite one that I have ever preformed was last years when we did The 47 Ronin^^! Though this year we're doing Hidalgo and it is already looking amazing (we just started putting it on the field). We have the same arranger who composed our music last year and it's AMAZING^^! He's a trumpet player I'm told, but he MUST have played melophone sometime because we have two solos (after the flute solo in the first movement and then to start the second movement) and just some amazing parts. I love it.

Oh, I don't remember the band, mount carmel? I dont mean to offend if I got it wrong, but once they did the Music Man... (I love that movie, so I'm biased).. two years ago. Then there's always the big band version of the Nightmare Before Christmas, too (the smaller bands always do crummy jobs)... -shrugs- We only go to four competitions a year, so I haven't seen that many.... sweatdrop
