Brad Registered: 09/14/04 Loc: St. Louis, MO	Subquestion: Why does everyone always piss and moan when someone's got a question, simply putting it off with "Should've looked it up."? Star of Indiana was a corps that basically started the trend of full-corps coreography with their 1993 production, often regarded as the best DCI show of all time, although they got 2nd (a decision that many people disputed). Looking it up on video.google.com will do some good. Nowadays, the memebers of Star are held in the highest regard. Star has won one World Championship, in 1991. Was that so hard, anyone? _________________________ rllrrl GOCK Legacy Percusion '05 Gateway Percussion '06, '07 Velvet Knights '07

Drummer85 Registered: 09/18/02 Loc: Brunswick, Maryland, USA	For most, no. HOWEVER, because the common theme for this entire forum is "Search First, Ask second" it seemed appropriate, don't take it like we're being butts. Ignorance and Laziness are NOT excuses for not searching on a topic. _________________________ Scott Smith Proud but unofficial endorser of: Vic Firth Sticks and Mallets, Remo Drum Heads Fantasy Corps Director: The Engineers [color:"blue"]Shenandoah Sound 2005-2006 Percussion (Quads)[/color] [color:"red"] New York Skyliners 2007??

I went to Google, entered "star of indiana" and got the info that he needed. Was that so hard? _________________________

Divalish Registered: 04/16/03 Loc: Pittsburgh, PA	Down, boys. Y'all should've used the cute little "Notify Moderator" button instead of jumping on him first. Anyway, more about Star. Why were they legendary? They made Finals every year of their existence. They pushed the creative envelope. Bill Cook ran his corps differently - he was ahead of his time (just like the corps itself), treating it more like a business. Their drumline wasn't just clean - they looked like clones of each other - their interpretations were spot on. Is that more like what you were looking for? _________________________ ~patty Crossmen '02-'03 & a whole bunch of WGI
