The Nose Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 After doing some researching I found the website with the link the the Holyoke Parade. After jumping through parts of it I believe I found the 3 corps that (I believe) were the only ones there. http://www.wgby.org/parade/index.html Cabs 4:19 - 9:13 Bush 53.33 - 54.52 Hurcs 108 - 110 Might I add myself to those that are quite impressed with Cabs progress so far this season. Bush sounded strong (the commentator over exaggerated their hornline numbers though), and I believe played the same version of Danny Boy as Cabs. Hurcs also sounded nice, right about where I thought they might be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bond624 Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 (edited) Fusion is at like the 101 mark And as for the commentater he hacked my name and had some other funny things to say. Bush has been around since 1972. Hee hee .. Edited March 24, 2010 by Bond624 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phalanx Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Always a treat to see the corps in parades... Especially with the announcers. Bush is from Norwalk, CT (again). Hurcs are in DCI! Hard to judge how the corps are going to be based on parades, but everything seems in order. Cabs sounded okay on some parts and great on others. Bush sounded solid. Fusion (around 101) looked and sounded good for their size Hurcs couldn't really hear the horns (due to where they were placed), but that drumline was huge for a parade!

Just keep watching. yup they did ... you can can continue to listen past 54:52 and hear the drumline playing the street beat and then they pan back to the line at around 56:55 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HurcsGuyGD. Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Just a little advice for brass players for all of the great corps involved in this parade. I can see that a lot of horn players blew off this parade for 2010. Please don't ever do that again. These parades pay the bills that help your chosen corps survive. We are in the beginning stages of an economic deperssion. How do you expect your corps to survive without your 100% commitment? Please make in a point to show up for all the remaining parades for 2010. This is what pays the bills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
