  1. With the increase to 150 members, does anybody know what the Contra err Tuba (cringe) numbers are going to look like for any of the corps this year?

    Since the switch to Bb, I've always felt more Contras were needed. I would love to see drum corps pouring as many "extra" members into the low brass as possible.

    I wonder if Phantom is thinking about 20 this year :)

    This rule will be applied in 2008. Corps numbers are still at 135 for 2007... either way, 20 contras would be :laugh: ^0^ :blink: ^0^ :doh:

  5. I think, as long as it works, its fine with me. I personally teach the Cavaliers marching style to my percussion ensembles. Its very fluid, relaxed, and you have a better sense of balance with it... yes even with drums. Of course, I try to maintain the style even on high speed drill that associated with most indoor drumlines. I've experimented and found this style to be the best looking for my groups.

  6. As a percussion judge for a local circuit here, execution and musicality is something we definitely look at. Personally, I would rather see a snareline execute a simple to intermediate musical phrase with high clarity and technique, than to see a snareline play beef with difficulty and lots of clarity issues. Yes, musicality is also a factor as well as effect when it comes to play certain musical passages. A long triplet roll at 205bpm played perfectly and executed with maturity can be just as a effective as semi-clean beef or stick tricks.
