For the last 3 years I have been in love with DCI (Drum Corps International). Every year I have either watched finals on TV or actually went to finals. Every year there is a band that blows me away, but this year was different. Not only was I blown away, one show practically brought me to tears.

It was Phantom Regiment, their show was, simple put, beautiful. The shows name was Sparticus, and it was the most moving collection of music and visual art that I have ever had the gift of watching and listening to.

The link that I posted is from Phantom Regiment's performance last night. It doesn't matter if you don't know what DCI is, you should watch the link, and make sure it is in high quality so you can really appreciate the sound of it.

Congrats Phantom, you deserved first place!
