Now, however, the age and some greater flexibility in time and resources mean I can recharge my interest in drum corps. And I possibly have some professional experiences that matter. But yeah, there is a bit of who am I to volunteer when I can't tell war stories from the 1979 tour. By volunteering, you become that listening ear of opportunity that allows the other volunteers and alums to spout those stories of BITD. You become the bridge builder and conduit for the MMs to bond with those alums who might be distracted from the many chores at hand while they share the experiences for which the MMs are so eager and the alums so well relish. You become the instrument for the corps' history past to come alive to the present corps and to become born again for those who previously lived it. You serve an important role for the corps' future as you also experience phenomenal people, young and old, and help build great memories for MMs and audiences alike. You, sir, have a lot to give. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the nice thoughts, xandandl. I'll think more seriously about jumping in. Madison's camp at Trafalgar is only about 45 minutes away.

Its inconceivable that GH did not know the double entendre of " Stoned ". He knew. It was controversial,( and that's him) and that's why he initially selected the theme name. My guess, he heard the giggles reaction, then decided he did not want his MM's saddled with that all summer long. So in retrospect, upon further reflection with it, he decided to srcap his initial choice for the show name. I'm just guessing that's maybe why he changed the name too, of course.
