Naw, it's more the deafening silence for a change! I thought I was hard of hearing - turns out I was just selective... Heh...

And I need a benefit to pay for the Jack I'll need to get through the next few days! Heh... (Just got back from the train station) She was here almost a year and a half (came down in July of '09 to help me move in) - and today's the first day she hasn't been here in my new house with me. It's.. weird.. and more than a little depressing...

Similar story here: I used to practice my trumpet (loudly) out my backyard bedroom window when I was about 15 (summer of '64)... One day, someone in a neighboring backyard started echoing me; it escalated into a "playing the dozens" battle until one of us got tired or called to dinner or whatever. I started looking forward to the "battles", which lasted all summer. That fall I became a high school freshman and made the Band... One day at band practice, a Tuba player came up to me and asked if I was interested in joining a "drum corps". I had no idea what he was talking about, but he told me there was a guy in my neighborhood who knew who I was, had "played the dozens" with me musically the previous summer - and asked this guy to approach me. They both thought I'd really like it. So I figured what the heck, and agreed to go to rehearsal the following Sunday... My first drum corps experience was sitting in a semi-circle in the upper room at a Legion Hall in Oneida, NY; I was the youngest one there! I was handed this strange trumpet-looking contraption with a horizontal piston and a round rotary thingie, had some 2nd soprano sheet music thrust in front of me with Xs and Os on it, and was told to follow along as best I could... Once the corps started playing the MGM Theme followed by "Sunny Side of the Street" - I was hooked! The power of sound that assaulted my ears that late fall Sunday afternoon out-did anything I had ever heard or been a part of before... This was a rehearsal with the Utica Executives Senior Corps - and I sat one or two chairs down from Joe Chisek, Jack Papa and Marty Anguilli - my original "Three Amigos". And the guy echoing me from the backyard - and who asked the Tuba player to invite me into the Wonderful World of Drum Corps? My good friend, Henry "Hank" Brunet. Man, I miss him...

Heh... I can tell you: We're starting off with the 1985 Sky Alumni's tribute to Hy Dreitzer - with Pepe as the MC. (We also have Marksmen, Archie, Matadors, Sac, Royal Airs, Madison et al) It looks like this will be another "theme" that will run for more than one Sunday. We already filled up the initial 3 hours - and have a LOT more great Alumni corps that should get their due... '98 Sky WILL be included next week!

So did Les Metropolitains and Archie(?)...

Starting at 11:00am Eastern Time, Diceman Radio Presents: "The Alumni" We'll be broadcasting all Alumni corps for a couple hours... If you have a favorite Alumni Corps/Year you'd like to hear, post it here! Enjoy,

She's ok, just nursing a bad ankle and a nasty summer cold... (She just told me to tell y'all she'll be on sometime today.)

Great choice! I was there, plus saw/heard 'em a few other times in '71 - my FAV Mellophone ever! They're included... We have more than enough material to do an hour of 50s, an hour of 60s, an hour of 70s, etc. (With a nice mix of junior and senior in all) That's the plan this Sunday... It looks like a "Part Dos" coming up NEXT Sunday! Heh...

Starting at 11:00am EDT, Diceman Radio Presents: "Oh, Canada!" We'll be featuring some great Canadian drum corps (Junior, Senior and Alumni) from the 50s to now, with a little History thrown in here and there... BTW, if you feel a certain corps/year MUST be included, let us know! Enjoy,
