- If it is true that there was phasing in the show, then posibly they didn't
- deserve to win brass. There are 2 other captions that you neglected to
- mention. What about their drum scores? On the CD, you can't tell what
- the visual show was. I also don't like to say that there is phasing in a
- corps by listening to a recording, because I have thought that there was
- phasing in spots of a corps performance, but when I talked to members who
- would know, there actually wasn't, it was just the phasing of the microphones.
