Nah Northwest is definitely Oregon, Washington, Idaho. California has enough corps...Northwest has 3...

Thats an unfair statement. Its not an individuals responsibility to come back for the sake of their corps, if they want to be there they will, if they dont, its their choice. Paying out two grand for tuition (then not to mention travel costs which are horrendous) I will march where I want to. Its a personal decision, not one that should be forced on by vets of the corps past. I was given the opporunity to march with Crossmen when Cascades folded and its one of the best things that could have happened to me drum corps wise. If I had the option I would have marched with Crossmen every year, but that would be my decision. You also have to see the perspective of knowledge. If you have the opportunity to march for different corps and get instruction from many of the top instructors in the country its only going to make you a better more rounded musician, which i think learning how to play your instrument better is also something this activity is about. Its all personal opinion, not something anybody should have a say in except the person making the choice. That being said, GO BONES!

Cascades Equipment Truck Crash
ScadesB5 replied to kaplac's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
Would rather have it be the equipment trailer than any of the buses. I know they put a lot of money getting that trailer to look world class, hoping everything works out. Keep Movin 'Scades! -
Go Crossmen!!

What's going on with Crossmen?

I agree with the semi finals hope, it was tough in 07' getting beat by PC in quarters to take 17th. but then of course it was harder the next year when Madison beat us (crossmen) in quarters to get 12th..... what a frustrating dci career I had lol I would love to see Scades in semis. It's been too long and the corps has been through a lot the last several years

Drums Along the Columbia Review
ScadesB5 replied to Lance's topic in DCI (All) Corps Show & Event Reviews
Technically they did drop "Seattle". (though the website is still seattlecascades.org lol) the corps has changed locations so many times the last several years, Vancouver, Yakima, Woodinville...they might as well just say they are from Washington State. Nobody would care IMO. It's just odd that corps wouldnt want to "go all the way to seattle". Im just thinking about the size of the city + free day potential! seems silly. -

Are you planning to go to Championships this year? -
The Pasco, Wash. Rinse and Spin
ScadesB5 replied to wesleyrp's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
The cascades definitely have come a long way from last year. Their show is much stronger and as alum of the corps I was proud to see the product they have-I know that this is a show they can compete and grow with. -
The Pasco, Wash. Rinse and Spin
ScadesB5 replied to wesleyrp's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
Yeah the sound was great, and was very apparent at the top of the show that they meant business. im pretty sure i said "Wow.." which doesnt happen often. also the percussion "break" towards the beginning was meh...but the actual feature towards the end was very good for the most part. It's still too early in the season to look to much into scores. We'll know more after Denver -

ScadesB5 replied to wesleyrp's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
So after seeing BK last night- I definitely like the show more this year than last years. Im glad to see they haven't put the huge emphasis on body movement early on (I'm sure it will get added throughout the season) but right now it feels like they are focused on getting a storng, clean show built first. definitely has legs! -
Drums Along the Columbia Review
ScadesB5 replied to Lance's topic in DCI (All) Corps Show & Event Reviews
Could be because this show seems to get smaller every year. Not as many "Big Name" corps are coming (I guess we call them G7 corps now? pfff) We used to see corps like BD and SCV, then we got just SCV...now the top group there is BK. The crowd has also gotten smaller-I remember marching in the show in 2006 and the stands were packed full...last night it was closer to 60-75% Still a good show though, I just hope we can bring in bigger corps. (Hey wasnt it nice when we had championships on the west coast in 07' and ALL the corps had to end up out here?) -
The Pasco, Wash. Rinse and Spin
ScadesB5 replied to wesleyrp's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I fear this show is going to get smaller and smaller every year. No BD, no SCV...oh well I will be there, but I'm not going inside. Better stuff happens outside anyway -
Cascades getting a 13+ at their first show was nice... 2006 we got a 10.8........ ....yeah.

All i know is that marching that parade in Bristol with Crossmen on Bass 5 in those all black unis was NOT FUN. Though we did get a chance to goof around with it.

They have some staff members that were former Cavaliers staff. (Cavaliers are not allowed to have cell phones on tour). Thats why.
