Why did he withdraw?

Mostly financial stuff, having to travel cross country every month.

1. Crown attracts top performers with experience in the marching arts. 

2. The musical duo Klesch and Hartloff have a tried and true chemistry and consistently produce great music/Brass lines. 

3. Guard attracts top talent even without MT so will perform very well. 

4. Jeff Sacktig writes great drills and the current viz team will get them squeaky clean. 

Regardless of show concept unless it's a huge miss, that keeps them in top 4. 

and Thom Hannum and Travis do know a thing or two about percussion. Although I think percussion there has usually had to play back up to the brass book. As a result, Crown doesn't always attract or retain a consistent Sanford trophy winning set of drummers and percussionists. However, those they have usually have a great summer experience and do have great talent. Perhaps a change in overall design team will provide new outlets for percussion as well.

For what it's worth, I've been told by someone on the perc staff that this line has a really good chance of top 3. A good amount of returning vets in addition to some very talented new kids.

Looking forward to seeing this show soon.

From what I've heard they are on the right track! The pit has some great writing as well and jeffs drill has featured the percussion quite well so far.

just recounted - we are officially up to 11 in the top 3. I guess a 9 way tie for 3rd

They are going to set a new trend by no show theme, so no show announcement. Why be like everyone else???
