DCA is also welcome. Or? Greatings to Canada :-)

I own a G Willson Euphonium. It's a beast. Heavy as ####, but a sound wowww. You need a european shank mouthpiece. I use a Shilke 51C4. I bought it from a german drum corps who switched to Bb for a really fair price.

Wow, what news? You guys are great! Europe will be fun for you. The DC Fans will be amazing. There are more fans than you expect. Germany will contact the officials asap. Shure you will get all the support. And don't worry about the beer. There is more than enough here. The corps are smaller, but they know how to party. Lesson in teach german: Absolut kein Problem. Here is lession Nr. 1 One beer please. = Ein Bier bitte! I'm hungry. Ich habe Hunger. Where is the next bar. = Wo ist die nächste Kneipe. more later ... Yippiaeyyyy

Wish Empire would do a Trip to Europe again, to show the folks here what All-Age Drum Corps is. Come on Europe is worth a trip again.

Well, usually it took me 4 hours drive from my hometown to Berlin Airport. Take a flight to New York or Montreal 10 to 12 hours. Drive from somewhere to Syracuse. Basically I had 24 hours travel time. This I have done in 2001 with Sky and 2005 with Brigs and hope to march again in 2007.

Harrold, it will be fun having Juliana on the field this year. Starriders will have a smaller hornline, too. But we improve and try to compete against our friends from Holland. It will be fun and I still remember back the "fighting years" where we battle on the field in competition. Oh man. That was fun. Keep up the good work. Drum Corps in Europe is becomming bigger and better year by year.

I "marched" with a german ocal brass band starting with 12 years till the age of 20. Then go to University. With 25 I join a local Parade Drum Corps for one year and was totally infected by Drum Corps in 1996 watching DCI in Orlando. 2 months later I join the Starriders Drum & Bugle Corps after asking my girlfriend and now wife to march 1 single season. OK I marched 1997 till 2000. 2001 I had the honor to become the very first german particapant of the DCA Finals marching with the New York Skyliners. 2002 and 2003 again with the Starriders. 2004 off and 2005 I marched with the Syracuse Brigadiers. 2006 I'm on Visual Staff with the Starriders Drum & Bugle Corps.

A third page bump. Hope everything is fine in Brigs-Land. Show sounds amazing. Sorrowly I will not be able to come to the banquett. We have camp that weekend here.

My DVD set arrived one week ago !!!! And I live in Germany :-)

This tune is amazing!!!!!!!!!

Damon, we should increase the European Factor this season. Moulin Rouge is a pure European thing.

Starriders is the only place to be. Nowhere else you find more DCI and DCA buddies. For more infos, visit our website: www.starriders.de It's like marching at home. Don't waste a year.

This show is amazing. This vehicle seems to be a real champion vehicle. Good for Brigs. Can't wait to hear the first snips of music. Are the tunes Wayne will use already choosen? Please bring "El Tango del Roxanne". It's an amazing tune for this power house hornline Brigs will definitly field in 2006.

Daniel, for shure we are not marching 130 members (18 Bass Drums :-) ), but we will fill all instruments witch are available. Everybody is hyped for next season. Something very special is at the fence and we will be a real force in 2006. Watch out for further reports. There will be a lot of news comming the next weeks.

Where can I get a CD with the unplugged version. I love the show, but I dislike the speaking. So I really wanna have this version for my archiv.
