  1. One the strangest experiences I’ve ever had in drum corps was Allentown in the early 80s back when they morning prelims and evening finals.  The night before it rained very much like tonight if not more so.  In the morning when arrived at the field, it was still extremely wet.  Someone knew someone and before we knew it, a large helicopter from a local military base showed up and started running back and forth across the field for about 30 minutes.  Shorty after that the field was dry enough to start prelims.  Never happen today.

  2. In regards finding another dome, many people I know prefer seeing all the all corps at a outdoor setting rather than an indoor facility.  Some go to Allentown instead of Indy. Something about hearing the corps in a more natural setting near the peak of their season.  Allentown has had many many more years without rain than with rain.

  3. Anybody know what's up there? Many people contributed to a Kick-Starter campaign to fund the beginning of a new effort to bring the Glassmen back. The first goal was to start a WGI guard. I do not see them anywhere. I checked the WGI web site for any mention of them and found nothing.

  4. Cleaning out my attic and have decided to get rid of a large number of old copies of Drum Corps News and Drum Corps World. From 1969 - 1990s, not sure if it's every addition but there are well over 200 copies. Not really looking to sell, but would be glad to send them to someone or something that would want them, providing they would pay for shipping, Not interested in shipping individual copies. Giving this a few weeks, than putting them in the garbage. Leave message here if any interest.
