  1. The problem with purchasing a horn (unless you go with a cheap or used one) is you will play on whatever brand the corps you go to uses in the end. You will end up with a horn sitting in your closet most likely, so don't spend a bunch of money on a mellophone is my advice.
  2. What is being left off of this is that at the very end he mentioned that DCI had committed itself to protecting the members and this MM then questioned why DCI allowed the Orlando event to start back at the time it did with lightning still within it's 15 mile boundary. I think that is what really irked DCI more than just reading the GH thing was questioning them about that Orlando situation.
  3. I believe most rehearsals are open to spectators, but be respectful and don't cause distractions. Also, staff may ask you not to take video of what they are doing, so be prepared for that too.
  4. Crazy that they hired the law firm already representing the board to investigate. That would not be an independent investigation - it is no wonder they didn't cooperate.
  5. I liked the '17 version of Genesis over '16, but both were good and very competitive
  6. Which is scary because they are usually sketchy at best.
  7. 1994 Magic - rookie year 1996 Magic - killer show 1997 Magic - Ageout, great music
  8. Remember that traditional retreats have all but gone away at most shows, usually drum major only nowadays.
  9. Music City is moving in this Saturday, can't wait!!!

  10. Haven't they been using mylars during camps and then switching at some point during everydays for the past couple of years?
  11. I have been thinking this for the last couple of pages...... right on!!!
  12. Always wondered why drum corps hasn't been sustained very well in Florida too
  13. Was with them from '94-97 and had the privilege to play some great RWS arrangements and originals as well.
  14. As do I, just wasn't sure if there was a conflict of interest and then possible scheduling issues with camps, etc.
  15. Looking forward to the 2016 season, should be a great one after last year's slate of good shows.

  16. A member of my contra section in '96 marched and he was in the Naval Academy at the time (it was the year after his plebe summer). Not sure how exactly he worked that out, but he did.
  17. How does it work to have 3 brass staff members working for 2 competing world class corps'?
