    I love to travel, listen to music, eat good food, drink Dr Pepper, support my Houston Rockets, and eat religiously at Marble Slab when I can. Sorry, I'm not a huge Coldstone fan. At the moment, I'm pursuing a degree in music education. My goal is to either be a music educator or to become involved with a non-profit music or fine arts organization. Music has always been an integral part of my life and I want to share my passion for music to others around me.

  1. For those that do not know... It is Lady Gaga's record hit "Paparazzi." Lady Gaga's real name is Stefani Germanotta.
  2. 2000 was the first year that Blue Devils used Dynasty percussion equipment after the switch from Yamaha. Methods of Madness was an EXCELLENT show. But, the sounds that the drumline was producing was horrendous and I'm not talking about the performers. Really happy to hear over the years that Dynasty has improved the quality of sound on their equipment. Just listen to the drumline closely during the entire show and compare it to the Cavaliers and The Cadets. Clear different in the sound of the equipment.
  3. Glad it is gone for DCI Championships. Cleaner field is a plus for all involved. Judges, fans, and instructors. Makes the visual and drill on the field pop out better.
  4. Santa Clara Vanguard 2006 "Moto Perpetuo" was an all original by Key Poulan.
  5. SCV 1999 - The Canyon (Philip Glass) Incredible.
  6. Great add to the PR team. His colorguard program at Winston Churchill HS was outstanding.
  7. Santa Clara Vanguard 2000 Pure emotion.
  8. Winston Churchill's music included: Meditation - Samuel Barber "Gallop" from Fancy Free - Leonard Bernstein Symphony No. 1 - Samuel Barber Medea's Dance of Vengeance - Samuel Barber
  9. Which shows have you seen from Plymouth Canton? Don Hill was PCEP's music arranger from 1994-2005. I highly recommend watching any of Plymouth Canton's shows from 1998-2001, L.D. Bell 2005-2007, and The Woodlands 2006. All masterpieces.
  10. Matt, Please go! It's shaping up to be another strong year at Grand Nationals. L.D. Bell (TX) is coming for a third straight year and is back to defend their national title. Broken Arrow (OK), Tarpon Springs (FL) and Kennesaw Mountain (GA) are back again. And, strong showings so far from the Indiana bands at the BOA Sound Check at Lucas Oil where first-third place was seperated by .65---Lawrence Central (78.95), Avon (78.85) and Carmel (78.30). Lawrence Central won no captions. Does 2001 Grand Nationals ring a bell?! Can't wait.
  11. Just to clarify.... Ronald Reagan HS has won numerous BOA Regional Championships and placed second at the Grand National Championships in 2003 & 2005. But yeah, Reagan's staff used to consist of Mark Chambers (Head Director), Kevin Nix (Assistant Director/Visual Director) and Aaron Guidry (Music Design). This year's staff includes J.D. Shaw as their music arranger and Mike Sloan as their visual designer.
  12. I can't wait until MalletKats hit the field for drum corps. I've heard and seen them over on the field for marching band over the past few years at the Regional and Grand National level at BOA and I love them...especially by the upper echelon bands--moat notably Ronald Reagan HS, TX during their 2001-2005 years. GREAT instrument.
  13. Go to YouTube and search "DCI - ties" When the search results come up, go to the video that says "1996 DCI Finals Scores Announcement"
  14. http://www.yea.org/site/News2?page=NewsArt...ws_iv_ctrl=1002 The Cadets percussion position has been filled.
