Why would they be lower?

No, something's wrong with you.

It's not that big of a secret. I won't post it on here though.

Jeff wrote Bluecoats 1999 right?

You only get to do this once. March where you want to march. Learn as much as you can and doing that with many different styles and staff can be great. Yes, loyal is great, but is someone moves on and does it the right way, then I have nothing against that.

I don't think Vanguard, Glassmen, or Bluecoats do it. Maybe Spirit too? I like the uniform look myself for consistency.

NO

from dci.org... "Dean Westman marched with the Cavaliers in 1991 and 1992, taught the corps in ’93, ’94 and ’95, was the Santa Clara Vanguard brass caption head from 1996-1999 and that corps’ arranger 2000-2002. He served as brass caption head for the Cadets in 2003 and 2004."

works for me

Because most of those bands are not staying at schools, practicing 8 hours a day on a field and sleeping in the gym. They're, for the most part, staying in hotels and performing their shows at the dome. It's much different then the DCI situation.

Exactly, I can't speak for every corps, but I've been involved in the past in auditions for a drum corps where hundreds are cut. When cutting these kids, they're encouraged to march somewhere else. I would say no more than 5% of those kids would even entertain the notion of going to a open class or lower tier world class corps. Everyone has their goals on where they want to be. Not marching in that dream corps and staying home to make money is the usual decision. These extra 15 spots won't hurt the smaller corps. If your drum corps isn't good enough to attract enough people, then the solution is to get better, market yourself better, so that people will actually want to march there.

I know for a fact, a corps in the top 12 last year got their uniforms for absolutely nothing. Deals like that do exist. I've been involved in drum deals that have worked the same way...free. I'm not saying that Southwind got anything for free, but those deals do exist. Just not for every corps out there.

There's no age limit for WGI Independent World Colorguard. There's still an age-limit for Independent World Percussion. You can march as long as you're not 23 before April 1st. So you can age-out at 23 if you turn 23 on or after April 1st. I wouldn't mind DCI matching the percussion age rule, but I think there should still be a limit.

Does he design for any high schools?

I've loved many of Key's arrangements. As much as I wanted to like 2007, it bored me. The visual design was at a much higher level than the music design.

There's already a thread on this here.

He's on the list above.

Yeah, I'm curious about Mitch as well. I wonder if they keep Tim Fairbanks as their visual coordinator? Didn't seem like that helped much compared to where they were in 2006.

I'm confused too. You're basically saying: 1. They had visual design issues keeping them from the next level 2. They marched very well 3. They hired Ron who is there to fix the marching, not design. Wouldn't that mean they would still have design issues? (unless they're making changes there as well)
