  1. Has anyone seen the flofilm featuring BAC and premiering today? I've checked Flo and do not see listed. TIA Go BAC
  2. Got to see my son!!!! Awesome, thank you so much. Quite emotional.
  3. Screaming Sops à la affecting the tasty altissimo ranges many brass fans lose their <blank> over, assuming quality execution, is quite popular with high-ranking corps. Does this help brass caption scoring?
  4. I'm trying to figure out the significance of the concept of 'regionals' and what's at stake for all the corps. Any resources available to help me understand this system? TIA! Go BAC!!
  5. Curious what a Legend MM pays per season. As a BAC parent, I paid about $3,500 this season and last, plus other expenses I.e. Their trips to, as they say, Wally World (Walmart). It is a financial hardship for many corps members. Of course assistance is available. All that to say, would be a shame to end season early for those MM's with that much financial outlay.
  6. From their fundraising site: 35K to replace our equipment trailers, as our old trailer was no longer safe to travel 12K to replace our appliances on our food trailer and additional adjustments 8K in additional rental vehicle expense and repairs for support vehicle breakdown early tour 15K in addiitonal expenses for corps housing needs that has risen through the season 30K in equipment replacements and additions for our growing corps, and additional general operating expectations
  7. This is interesting and just an FYI regarding security at the Alamodome on Saturday: * INCREASED SECURITY MEASURES * Due to the increase in security it is suggested that you arrive earlier at the Alamodome. Amoung the measures that will now be in place are: 1. There will be an increased security presence both inside and outside the Alamodome. 2. Small handbags & purses will be allowed in the Alamodome, but will be inspected at all entrance gates. Inspection tables will be set-up outside the North, South and East gates. 3. Large bags, coolers and backpacks WILL NOT be allowed in the Alamodome. 4. Once fans have exited the Alamodome, they WILL NOT be allowed to re-enter for any reason. 5. Signs will be posted throughout the interior and exterior of the Alamodome, as well as in the parking lots listing the new security procedures. As a parent, I enjoyed stepping out of a stadium to visit with son after performance when they have a few minutes. Sounds like that's not an option.
  8. Pardon my ignorance. What does "Businesslike" mean in this event's context?

  12. BAC may be peaking? Oh the monotony of these posts. GO BAC!!!!
  13. @MikeRapp: I saw them in Orlando, brilliant show. Hope to learn of your reaction after show. GO BAC!
  14. While I'm not a complete DCI noob, I have never been as close to the action until my son started marching (2nd year BAC brass this year). That said, I hear often about 'politics' in the judging of these amazing corps. In no way am I impugning the system's integrity. I welcome your POV and any insight into this topic. If I am off-topic in any way, please delete with extreme prejudice.
  15. I'd say sassssy, would you say sassssy? we may have seen two different shows. I applaud your sheer confidence and moxie sir. Go BAC!
  16. Thank you sir. My full name is Skippy Biff Thaddeus (the 3rd). Hahahahahaha Go BAC!!!
  17. NASA's Juno spacecraft passes closest in history to Jupiter's red spot at 10:06 EDT. Coincidence? Go BAC! I know, that makes no sense...just silly.
