You're all wrong, It's Turan-Breathe-DAH!

Been touting Murray Gold for a while now... Especially his wrok on Season 2... I have his Season 4 work mixed in with Giacchinos Star Trek Score and its almost seamless.

It appears that they made an announcement regarding this season. http://www.platinumdrumcorps.org/ That's too bad.

Naked All-Girl Corps always gets a "standing ovation" :) They should get their own banner/thread like INT did

Actually, PYWARE (drill design software) makes an accessory that enables you to learn your drill a la Dance Dance Revolution.

I'm in complete shock... I just reconnected with Geoff the other day and was looking forward to catching up. Would someone PM me with specifics please? Wonderful gentleman and loved his corps, always good for a laugh. *says a prayer* Patrick Sloan Founder and Former Director Carolina Gold

Corps that have had influence in my life over the last eleven years. CorpsVets, Carolina Gold, Gulf Coast Sound, and Frontier (and INT). Sadly this is moving weekend and I'm unable to swing north but I wanted to wish my extended Drum Corps family smooth trips, standing ovations, and safe returns. pts

Hey lookie! This thread has enough pages to be in class A!!!

That's Tennant oh moustachioed one. :) Boy I miss hanging out with you at DCA. Uh oh, i just went off topic.

That's really awesome news!!! (I'm *so* getting in trouble for this banner)

No no, that's the beauty of 4'33" It's Opener, Ballad, and Closer and Encore if you play it back to back enough times.

but yet, isn't INT always performing? just INTermittenly INTerspersed with Drum Corps? thanks for everyone's props on the INT banner... glad y'all are INTerested

The "John Cage" of Drum Corps, if you will?

But they never changed their MISSION statement.

Not necessary... INT is INTirely funded by program sales and 50/50 raffles.

Oh so whereas Vanguard can make an entire corps disappear, INT can make an entire corps not appear. I think I'm catching on, BRASSO.

INT is desperately trying to offset the costs of high gas prices and losing their bingo hall. It's so hard on their INTerim director!

this thread is INTense.

Robby Benson was playing for a David Pressley of Mars Hill NC.... Sounds just a *little* familiar.

I feel the need to weigh in on this one. 1. In my junior corps days, I thought I would be cool and go without sunscreen through a 3-day tour of Pennsylvania. My punishment was a third-degree burn on my left arm and permanent scarring and spotting all over my body a decade and a half later. My excess use of sun block during that time resulted in some fairly colorful nicknames that i can't repeat. 2. Sunburn and UV exposure have very VERY little to do with the temperature outside. The worst sunburn I ever got was when I was in CorpsVets and thought I could go without sunblock on an overcast, 70-degree day. 3. Melanoma runs in my family and I fear I have paid a price much greater than my dues in some ways. Bullfrog Brand Gel is an excellent brand of sunblock that allowed me to continue participation in the activity as a marcher for many more years than i reasonably should have. It dries on contact and stays applied with minimal need for reapplication.

If you can generate funding for your non-profit organization by touting the educational merits of your program and your value to youth and community. then that's clearly the way to go. As a not-for-profit, your corps is going to be fairly scrutinized by potential givers and if the "carpet don't match the drapes" then you're very likely to lose out on certain alliances. Perhaps that was a poor phrase to use, but you get my drift.

oh those are WICKED cool. are the trousers tucked into the spats at mid calf? or is that just the trouser hems riding up? either way that will be very interesting. it doesnt look like a "costume trying to be old-school" it looks literally like they walked out of a time machine. - p
