  1. "Suck it Up...A Tribute to Hubert Cecil Booth" inventor of the vacuum cleaner A musical journey through the evolution of the device from noisy and bulky to trim and quiet. The judges can serve as debris.
  2. Hi Tony - if you have time, could you lay out a little bit about the steps involved in doing this? I am interested in doing something similar.
  3. Marching members dressed as piano keys, manipulated on field to appear as a single piano, each MM playing a specified note. Chaos!
  4. 5:12 of Taming the Dragon is just berserko. Not a Meldau fan, but if anyone can persuade me, it's Bloo!
  5. Has anyone considered polling the marchers? Do they have a forum to have their say regarding the general direction of DCI?
  6. Just a small irk, but this kind of reminds me of the controversy about saying things like "female scientist" or "female astronaut." It kind of strikes me as this is expected to be a rare and unusual thing. I get that the base rate probability is lower in females of being a drummer, but it sends a little bit of a message that I don't like. I remember getting so angry at my bandmates in college for telling their friends, incredulously, how cool that she's a good drummer and she's a girl? Like, she's just a good drummer. Signed, a female drummer.
  7. I don't know why I feel like the Cavaliers would do it best, but a Rolling Stones show with "Angie" as the ballad would be pretty hot.
  8. The evolution of marching, using all styles across the generations.
  9. A fantastic 2019. Will be expressing my audience appreciation by increasing my $$$ donation. Now how much do I have to donate for them to agree to start taking massive time penalties and play well past the allotted time next year?
  10. Maybe John Lennon shouted "There! Stop it there!" as he purportedly did for the abrupt finish of She's So Heavy.
  11. Ha! If they add a lick from Ringo's "It Don't Come Easy" then I will know they were committed to the concept.
  12. To me, the Bluecoats show could go on for 40 minutes and I could probably stay engaged. So any revisions they add, I hope they maximize the usage of time allowed.
  13. Any idea what it times out at? How much time left to fill?
  14. Stadium Rock or Classical Gas / Taste of Honey / Lonely Bull / Gish by Smashing Pumpkins finale
