people should think twice before they use broad terms to describe all the Div II/III corps.
Amen.
-
Venues for II/III are poorly advertised and often poorly attended. These corps provide the oportunity to many kids to get their first taste of drum corps and allow the opportunity for those to march who cannot make the financial or time commitment. The work ethic requirements for Div II/III is no different from Div I, while individual exposure is much greater.
The closest corps for us is at least 450 miles away. We checked out fees for the closest Div I corps vs. the closest Div II/III corps. The difference in fees was only $100! Current corps had camps/rehearsals every month Jan-season starts and gone all summer (sounds like a lot of time committment to me!) Div II/III parents/members also make serious (for us) financial committments and sacrifices. We could not afford corps in 2006. This year my son ended up choosing the corps he marched previously due to the comraderie, the friendships, the atmosphere and the committment to excellence (Memphis Sound!) and we're both more than satisfied with the decision he made!
GO MEMPHO!!!!!!!!!

Do they announce the scores as they go along in the semi's or do they wait for the end?
I'm hoping Memphis is on the way to the stadium, now.
My son just called...the bus got to the hotel about 12:25pm Pacific Time
Whew!
And he said and I quote "It's all good"

I just got a text from a Memphis snare player, 11:56 Pacific time.. "Gate is at 1:20 and we're still at the hotel and we have a 20 minute drive to Pasadena"
I just got a phone call...bus has not arrived yet!

And I had to promise the moon to my employer to get today off, just to watch the webcast!
Only chance I had this summer to see my son and the corps he is in perform
The only other webcast he was in had problems and DCI had to issue me a refund then also.

I just wanted to see an overall "THANKS" to everyone who takes the time and energy to write reviews/thoughts of the shows they see... we may not always remember to thank each of you individually, but I know I speak for everyone reading these forums when I say we really do appreciate it.
definite ditto.
I'm sure I'm not the only parent who cannot make the shows.
It's great to hear from people who are able to go!

im going to have to agree. there is no way surf onyl improved 1 point over the course of a weeks rehersal. i marched DII and scoring is erradic at the DII level.
My son is in a Div III corps, and one night this season, he was concerned about their standing because another corps had a high score jump, and they had dropped a couple points. I pointed out to him that the other corps performed in a different venue with different judges and he replied, in a tone of surprised awareness, "oh yeah!" (the light bulb came on!)
Bottom line....the telling time will be at semifinals/finals when everyone performs at the same venue.
my 2 cents. :)
