Alumni corps 'Season' about to begin


Recommended Posts

And some people appreciate having the off season. Please lets not get into a pissing contest on who is "the best" out there because every person has their own preferences..

One thing I love about the Alumni activity is that you guys have a show ready for public consumption in April. Gotta hand it to you guys. Cudos.

I like that, too. But it's not just alumni corps that are ready to perform in April. I enjoyed seeing the Kilties performance at the South Milwaukee Civic Center on March 27th, 2011. They performed:

Their 2011 concert piece "Water is Wide"

Their 2011 parade repertoire including:

  • Scotland the Brave
  • Conquest (Yup THAT Conquest)

Their 2011 complete field show repertoire "The Three Faces of Drum Corps" including:

  • Movement 1 "Tradition" (A medley of Brigadoon, McCoys Reel and Auld Lang Syne)
  • Movement II "Evolution" (MacArthur Park)
  • Movement III "Exploration" (Interstellar Suite)

It was awesome!

HEY THERE BUDDY!!

If what I read is true...are you taking a year off? :huh:

Not seeing YOU on the field will be almost as tough as not not seeing Rich Skare at DCA..

Still hoping to see you this summer.. :thumbup:

Pat

BTW - that sounds like a killer show, can't wait to see and hear it. :worthy:

OK Pat... The cat's out of the bag...

I know that this may come as a shock to you, but after 17 years on the field with our beloved Kilties, me and Moon are giving our marching shoes a rest this summer. I'll remain an active member of the board of directors and will continue to run The Great Lakes Brew Fest, and Moon is still doing uniform storage/fitting/inventorying/chasing etc. Don't worry, you'll still see us around this summer. :thumbup:

Edit: That's 17 years for me... 31 years for Moon (including 17 all age, 4 in Kiltie Kadets, 8 in Kiltie Jr. and 2 Kiltie Reunion corps)
