    I've been out of the DCI game for over a decade and today's DCI is unrecognizable. I'm sure a lot of people will disagree with me on that but it's just the way I feel. But don't get me wrong, I'm not the old guy that says no to innovation and progress because that's the way it's always been. If today's DCI participants are happy with the product then good for them. I want DCI to succeed and give people memories and experiences that I had when I was that age. Having said that, I'm not sure I'd have much interest in it if today's product was what I had offered to me at that age.

    Good to see Dan Potter is still around the scene. He announced my high school band when we competed in BOA competitions. Still confused as to why he left WBAP for Tulsa but that's a whole different topic.

    It's all been about show design. They were THE innovators in the 2000s but once they pointed to the open trail they began getting passed pretty quickly. Last 10 years of the program has broken my heart.

    As in they are recognized by the IRS as a non profit?

    No, the metal hardware on the snare. I see a tint of purple...or I'm going blind.

    I miss the old school blue with white helmet.

    Ah, my favorite thread of the year. Purple hardware on those Cavies drums?! Interesting.

    Drum is the gun metal gray Yamaha 14 inch snare used by the 2004 and 2005 Cavaliers. Anybody interested?

    Good god the Cavies suck this year.

    The cavaliers show is horrible, what makes you guys think they are a top 10 corps? MADNESS
  11. azwethinkweizm
    Drum corps is dead. You cannot change the current model without changing EVERYTHING THAT DEFINES DCI.
  12. azwethinkweizm
    Cavies will drop out of the top 5 and will be carried by their percussion who will win their caption this year.

    It's always about us.

    A previous poster put it best: high school marching bands are replacing drum corps. That's why I never marched with a corps because my high school was extremely dedicated to our fall shows that it didn't make sense for me to go with another corps. I already have fraternity, I already have brotherhood and bonding, and I already have fantastic music. It's a shame but for those of us in band intense areas, drum corps doesn't offer us anything that our high schools do not.

    Is that a pic of the incident?
