Yes and no. Most corps (and bands...including mine) have a UPS running for the express purpose of keeping the wifi network and mixer up and running, along with the sound engineer's iPad or computer. While you could theoretically run an entire sound system off of a UPS for a very limited time, it's not that simple. It really depends on the amperage draw of your amplifiers. You would probably be ok in a pinch with a small system, but not with a system like most corps use, an certainly not on a regular basis. Would it work in a pinch in an emergency? Maybe.

Tarpon's show is really cool. I dig how they integrate the screens into the program. It's great design.

Chuck's resume in drum corps is bulletproof. Hiring him at Madison is a *great* call, and you have no idea what the heck you're talking about.

Confirmed. It was part of his "thank you" speech, where he did offhandedly acknowledge there were issues, but really took a shot at "internet trolls". For those of us on the back side of the field in the corps staff area behind the corps at retreat, it was a real "WTF, did he really just say that?" moment.

The "they" in my post wasn't the individual potential member...it was the corps.

The irony being, of course, that "jazz" is far more diverse than "classical" is.

They were first on Thursday as well. The bad night was last night's judge.

It's not bragging when it's true.

2009 was far worse.

Sorry, man, I missed the sarcasm of the gif...got 'em turned off.

It is when you're accusing a drum corps judge of bias. The numbers don't tell a story without the commentary and critique feedback.
