- When the Cavaliers tied the Cadets for the 2000 Drum Corps International World Championship, it was the third time in five years and the second year in a row that there was a tie for the number one position.
The 2000 season was the first year DCI corps were allowed to use brass instruments pitched in any key, and it was rather interesting to see the Cavaliers do so well that year, as the corps, playing on the more traditional G bugles, finished alongside the Cadets and in front of the Blue Devils, the first two corps to make a switch to B-flat horns.

I saw this show live on Finals night. Cavies were easily the loudest, most powerful corps of the night. This would be the last time I heard a top corps on G bugles. God, how I miss that sound.
cavalier9915 I wasn't there as it was a little before my time (marched BK soon after they made the switch), but I think this was the best sounding 3 valve G Bugle line ever put together. I think the switch actually hurt their overall effect because their rich tone quality just lost volume on the Bb horns. That combined with the fact that the corps had built up some major momentum from the '99 show (Cavs most underrated show IMO), it would have been interesting to see what Saucedo would have done with the Gs in '01 and so on.
Cavies old drill design never ceases to amaze me
You mean drum corps actually having drill design amazes you. Long gone these days haha
The Cavies were just showing off from 2000 to 2004. It was seriously impressive what they did on a field.
1:27 = best mustache-shaped drill of the year, hands down.
This was the first year that guard scores were included in the overall score for placement, and that was what put the Cavies over the top. Sitting on the 50 that night, the Cadets had a better run in Finals, but both corps victory runs were better than their Finals performances.
I wasn't there for 2000, but saw four corners show the following year I believe. I remember everyone was just shocked at the performance and got chills from it. Can't imagine sitting at finals night seeing Niagara Falls show, wow. Just wow.
I usually don't give much props to the color guard with DCI because I focus on the sound+drill synergy, but... the guard here completely enhances the score and intensity of the show. It's absolute perfection.
Greatest show of all time
I was there all week and both Cavies and Cadets pulled out their best that last night. The crowd wasn’t so hot on a tie but did agree they (and the Blue Devils” left it all out there. Great year and great shows.
Have to credit Drew Shanefield, Brass Caption Head - he was also my soprano tech and later caption head when I marched Cadets. He went on to do great things with Cavies. And I definitely miss that G bugle sound as well.
He rejoined the Cadets this past season!
Go ahead hate me, but they had one of the best drumlines of DCI.
Thank you god for preserving this masterpiece.
The drill!!!! Impeccable, 0 flaws. This was the start to the Cavies dynasty.
Ah yes. The Diamond Cutter. That drill is iconic.
This has NO RIGHT to be this fricking groovy
See kids? This is what a G Bugle drum corps show sounds like. And guess what? We can hear the pit as well without mics.
Kyushu Jet facts
BOOMER
My band director in high school marched in this show. He said multiple people broke their ankles and legs from the run at 1:11.
Me: When I graduate, I'm going to DCI!
Also me: *Can't even remember music past Movement 1*
I don't know why I find 1:12 so entertaining.
That Drumline tho....
Right there with Star 93
0:50
I didn't know that they were playing on g bugles for that show… huh.
Drum corps mustache
Marian Catholic did Niagra Falls in 1999
Maybe a watered down version guaranteed not the same music or matching book as cavies😂
@TDCIO2011 NOT!!!
But they did win >;o?
tied with Cadets for 1st
Can we get back to actual drill please……i miss it so much, its so much dancing going on instead of marching and mesmerizing formations. DCI has lost its flare, I thought this was suppose to be “MARCHING Music’s Major League”
There should never be a tie.
The Cadets had the Cavies beat.
