"Consider Blue Stars situation. Massive staff turnover? Nope. Just an upgrade in an area that was a weakness last year - Visual." I think this was actually their strongest area. The corps marched very well. Didn't they place very well in visual performance?

"Sorry kids, I hate to see the great legacy that was The Cadets ruined by one very unstable person." The Cadets won their first championship in 1983...George Hopkins first year as director. The Cadets were DCI champions last year with the highest score in DCI history. How is he ruining The Cadets and their great legacy? George is trying to make this activity better by pushing the envelope! Unfortunately for The Cadets, this was a very competitive year for drum corps. I can't even begin to imagine how much time it took to put together such a well coordinated show. Many people are comparing the Cadets to a "BOA band." Did anyone see BOA finals this past year. It was incredible. I would be honored to be compared to a BOA band. The Bands of America organization is one of the elite in this activity. The Cadets are doing many great things for this activity. I am thankful for someone like George Hopkins for his vision for drum corps and its future. Kudos to the Cadets and all of the other corps who competed this weekend.

This young woman is a performer, a great one at that, who has feelings just like you and I. Drum corps is an educational opportunity and should continue to be so. As a person who claims to support drum corps, this is not the best way to represent yourself as a person or as a fan of the activity. Size 2 or 20, she is still a beautiful girl doing a great job fulfilling her role as a performer and a Cadet. Shame on you.
