  1. Thanks Brasso! Drum corps keeps getting better (in my head, if not everywhere else). The more I pick up about marching music, the more impressive drum corps shows become. And I haven't even seen one in the flesh!

    I'm going to put this question out there again though: How does world class compare with open class?

    The main difference between Open and World classes is Open Class corps operate on usually a smaller scale than World Class corps. Open Class corps usually have less shows, a shorter tour, lower tour fees, and are more likely to stay in their region until Finals. Open Class corps tend to be smaller in membership too, any where from the maximum of 150 to 30 members.

  2. Care to explain these 2 before the close?

    Boston was a very tough corps back in the day. You did NOT want to mess with them. As such, they had rivalries with most corps.

    I've always seen Phantom have a restrained or Spartan-like demeanor, but a bad attitude? I don't follow...

    Back on topic, I understand and appreciate that the Blue Devil organizations work very hard and they deserve their titles. That being said, I can't stand their approach and programming choices.

  3. Did the Spartans or did the Spartans not fold into Citations last year??? It's basically the same thing only flip flopped.

    The majority of the instructional staff moved from the Spartans in 2007 to Citations in 2008. The only real difference is that the Spartans were able to get another staff together to be active for one more season and faced bankruptcy after the 2008 season.
