  1. I'm just gonna leave this right here... https://www.facebook.com/forbiddenregiment?ref=ts&fref=ts Thoughts? Insight? Anyone?
  2. Not sure about 2011, but there was an open class show there in 2010.
  3. Actually... a lot of the areas around the dome aren't... the safest... and are on constant patrol for stadium visitors parking in the area. If something doesn't happen to your car in one of the neighborhoods, it will likely get towed. I wouldn't recommend it.
  4. I've heard something similar to this mentioned before- trying to partner with a local school to have a summer drum corps food truck experience offered as an internship. Can't beat experience.
  5. Tchesnokov. I have a recording that is supposedly The Cadets playing it. I got it off of Napster in the early 2000s so I'm not really sure who it is.
  6. Music from How To Train Your Dragon ... logic would point to Pioneer, but it could be pulled off by many corps.
  7. I was under the impression that you do not need an actual wireless internet connection, just a wireless network connection (like when two laptops connect to each other through a user-created network and are not connected to WiFi). There should be a wireless broadcast system of some sorts on the systems, I believe. I could also be totally wrong.
  8. 2004 Academy (Debut) 2009 Blue Stars (The Factory) 2002 Bluecoats (Urban Dances) 2004 Bluecoats (Mood Swings) 2001 Glassmen (IMAGO) 1994 Cavaliers (Rituals) 2007 Cavaliers (And So It Goes...) 2007 Madison Scouts (Unbound) 1988 Vanguard (Phantom of the Opera) 1998 Blue Devils (One Hand, One Heart) Not sure how many people know Academy's 2004 show... worth checking out, I still catch myself humming the music. I absolutely adore The Factory and loved Houdini even more. I spent months tracking down the piece that was the source for the flugel section of Glassmen 2001 (Concertino for Oboe and Strings by Brenno Blauth) to play at my senior recital I liked it *that* much. The first 2 minutes of Madison's 2007 show are some of my favorite 2 minutes of drum corps ever. A definite visual treat. I feel like And So It Goes... is so overlooked because everyone wrote it off when it got announce as a Billy Joel show. Much of the music wasn't instantly recognizable but was great, and the drill was fantastic. I much prefer Vanguard '88 to '89- not sure if I'm in the minority of people who have actually heard both or if '89 is the "favorite" because it won.
  9. I think he just did some seat-hopping, not sure he realized he could actually do/say anything about it.
  10. Yeah, it was for world class semis (just verified it with him).
  11. Actually, a friend of mine asked for the cheapest ticket they had at the box office. He didn't find out they were like the ones in the picture until he got to them.
  12. Judged? Crown's huge Mahler chord. Not judged? Star. The one(s) that made us scream/laugh/cry/jump up and down. Yeah.... Honorable mention goes to the Blue Stars' mello line for pretty much everything they played/added to a chord.
  13. This. Getting to see/hear Star live was absolutely amazing- so many of us in the junior corps activity either now or recently never got to see Star live- I was only 8 in 1993 and didn't know what drum corps was until 2000. It was an opportunity a lot of the "younger" people in the activity had only dreamed of.
