Steel City did that gig a time or two after you all did, I think. One of those fun out of norm things to do, and IIRC was somewhat well received by the folks around the 18. Bonus when finished and the tournament staff pointed us in the direction of the closest beer tent and "opened the bar" so to speak...or may be it was the drummers who said 'hey, look what we found'. so hard to remember all the little details!

thread has run its course and is deep in the weeds. closing

sorry all. we have too many open threads talking about the same thing. we are going to start funneling the discussion down.

Posts removed to try to keep the peace and thread open. assistance in both would be greatly appreciated - the converse, not so much thanks

closing

I think the original legitimate intent of this thread has migrated over to one of the other Pioneer threads, so we'll close this one and concentrate the discussions. thanks all for your understanding, and your help in keeping the discussions civil and on point.

good morning all. It appears this thread has run its course and much of the relevant discussion on recent developments is going on in two other threads. we'll close this one thanks

remember that DCA may be a little different, especially back in 'our day' - you had many marching members who probably had medical credentials from their full time jobs: EMS, RN, trainers, even a physician or two...we took care of ourselves, reasonably well, I believe.

cleaned up off topic posts. sorry folks - thou shalt not post any reference to material considered political or religious in nature.... seriously, we have plenty to talk about in a focused, thoughtful and adult manner. let's please not muddy the waters. thanks for your understanding

sorry all - took me a while to get on to the Forum and sweep up some 'stuff' on here, also apologies for not leaving much - a lot of collateral damage as the result of trying to bring the discussion back to some semblance of rational 'discussion'. Please if some of you want to recreate some of the missing thoughts - in a respectful way - please feel free to start here. Danke

personal attacks removed.

since the beginning of DCP. we do our best to try to stay out of the way of meaningful conversation, and regularly allow it to morph as long as it stays meaningful, relevant and respectful. removed the political and personal junk - carry on.
