Skyliners never pulled out of the Long Island show. We were invited when the discussions were going and said no from the beginning. Big difference. -

Every little bit helps! The Skyliners are looking to get a new truck! As you've seen, we've grown rather quickly and need some help getting our equipment around. If you can help, please click on the link and donate what you can. We really appreciate the love and support we've received over the past couple of years. We look forward to entertaining you another season and BEYOND. Every little bit helps! Thank you! Here's the link..... http://www.rockethub.com/projects/65477-the-skyliners-truck-fund

Skyliners use Yamaha for pit and battery. -
Skyliners are Kanstul and Dynasty (DEG) horns in 'G'. I believe we also have one Yamaha convertible Contra to go with our others.

2015 Atlanta CV - "EYEconic" moments
lcarbonell replied to justgin's topic in DCA - All-Age Corps Discussions
Two that came to mind immediately...(or at least in my mind, lol).. The company front step-over. The percussion feature where the battery straddled the 50 and the guard took care of the visuals.... Now I'll have to look for more when the video comes out! Great job, CV! -

We are rehearsing at our normal spot - the corps named Foley Field in Plymouth, PA. Go to the light at 40 W. Main St., Plymouth, PA...turn onto Gaylord. Take your first right and go about 300 yards. Our field is the first clearing on the left. We are there until 2:00PM. You can come enjoy the Kielbasa Festival on Main St. also! Larry -
I believe the Erie Thunderbirds, DCA Class A, are on G Bugles also.

DCA Predictions for 2015
lcarbonell replied to totaleefree's topic in DCA - All-Age Corps Discussions
That was not a DCA parade last year. It was sponsored by a department of the City of Rochester. They only asked DCA corps to participate. That is all. -

The Skyliners are off to a very good start in 2015. Overall, we are very pleased with the corps' progress so far. The horn line has about 4 1/2 minutes learned and are working on a parade tune. Percussion has the opener learned. Just as a reminder - Our show "Whatever Lola Wants" consists of "It Had Better Be Tonight", "Whatever Lola Wants", "Ain't No Sunshine" and the "Tonight Quintet". Our parade tunes are "Fantasy" by Earth, Wind and Fire, "Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You" by Frankie Valli and "Give My Regards to Broadway". The corps is also learning the traditional "Signature". In our February rehearsals, brass will start on the next section of the show with continued work on our parade tunes. Percussion will finish the second number and begin the next section later in the month. Along with the music, the visual staff is hard at work molding our appearance. Basics blocks take up a good portion of each rehearsal. We have lots of people from different programs. It is important that they learn one marching program - THE SKYLINERS marching program. The corps will be marching in the Scranton St. Patrick's Day Parade on March 14th. As far as our current numbers: Brass line is near 40 in number which is larger than last year. Our attendance has been consistent. We are looking to fill all sections. We will not make any decisions on numbers for drill until March. Battery Percussion - Battery is currently at 4 snares, 3 tenors, 4 bass, 2 cymbals. Pit Percussion is growing as we are still looking for players here. Color Guard is currently at 16. Our next rehearsals are at Wyoming Valley West HS, 150 Wadham St., Plymouth, PA: January 31st, 10-6 - Full Corps. February 1st, 9-3 - Full Corps. Thanks! If anyone has any questions or would like to reach me, my email address is director@marchsky.org. Larry Carbonell

From the bottom of my heart, I wish to thank all of you for your support and love throughout this entire year.It has been an incredible first year back and I hope you've enjoyed our performances. We do it for YOU, the fans. Our goal this year was quite simple. All we wanted was to have the Skyliners out again as a drum corps - whether it be a parade corps, mini-corps, competitive, whatever.....we just wanted to be back. The members, staff, support, alumni, DCA and even other corps have all come out in droves to help us and we exceeded all of our expectations. But we aren't done yet.....Since our last appearance in Scranton, the corps had three full day rehearsals where they've taken their performance to another level or three....We can't wait to perform for you on Saturday. Thank you for a great 2014. Planning for 2015 and beyond is already underway. To coin a phrase from a song - "The future's so bright, I gotta wear shades!"...... Best of luck and safe travels for everyone going to Rochester. It's going to be a GREAT weekend! Larry
