Madisonscoutsfan Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 I can't wait to see Racine scouts show. I hear it's going to be a big year for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madisonscoutsfan Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I wonder how music city will do this summer. There improvement since 2009 has been a little unpredictable, such as doubling in size from 2010 to 2011, and not improving as much as expected. They have always been my favorite open class corps, and I look forward to what they put on the field this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloppyTheSnarePlayer Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 City Sound has no show title yet, however our show includes New Orleans Themed jazz. Also: anyone looking to march a corps this summer but isnt sure where to go, Come to City Sound. we still have plenty of hornline positions open, and have spots to be filled! We practice every sunday (besides Easter) at Cal State Dominguez Hills, parking lot 4A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleran Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Well, I hadn't previously seen any formal announcement by Raiders, so I didn't want to post this info myself, but since it was published in the May edition of Drum Corps World, I guess it's now public knowledge: October, by Eric Whitacre Month of the Cold Moon (January, 1839), by Roland Barrett Into the Joy of Spring, by James Swearingen Kingfishers Catch Fire, but John Mackay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrumManTx Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Some great shows this year, particularly excited about 7th Regiment. If I had to pick a favorite Open Class corps, would probably be them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.E. Brigand Posted May 10, 2014 Author Share Posted May 10, 2014 I just noticed that Coastal Surge announced their show title more than a month ago: "A Southern Saga: Scenes from Charles Towne Harbor". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
