Jee, since when does dinner and coffee with Hop equate to tea with the Queen or an audience with the Pope. Remeber, it's the little people like us who put them in the position they are in. Hop willing to say hi should be the least to expect!!

Just think of all the money you will be saving on tickets!!

I think that if a trip to the finals is probably unlikely, then you really have no choice..do you???

Oops, my bad...A DCI CORPS giving YOU money. What a concept!!

DCI giving you money??!! What a concept!!

By all means. After all, his autograph and 35 cents will buy you a cup of coffee. Well, you might have to add another 35 cents for that coffee!

Not to mention being able to cough up the tour fees!

Carmen?? There are no rumps in Carmen...are there??!!

I'm hoping for that Red Ryder BB gun from Santa Claus. And BTW, I wonder what ever happened to that $5 the tooth fairy owes me!!

Can you say "Photoshop"!!

Who cares? The only number that matters is the number of folks you hit the field with in June!!

Cru buried the hachette IN Phoenix and then ripped off their book!

You got a salute from Frank Ponzo?! THE Frank Ponzo??!!

You can say what you want about 'dem snazzy show tunes and intricate bouncing jazz riffs..but there ain't nothin' like stomping yer feet and snappin' your fingers to a stirring rendition of "Claire de Lune"!!!!

Interesting fact: Since the organization of DCI, the grassroots drum corps activity has died! But alas, someday soon IT (DCI) will die too. You can't cut of the head and expect the body to live!

You forgot one thing.."We will serve no wine before it's time!"

I'm sure!

However, if those judges don't get to see a corps at least 3-4 times during the year they do not trust themselves to give the mark.

The Inspires can bring their "M" show or any other show. The rest of the DCA's eastern corps could march in block formation up and down the field to rim taps and the best the Inspires will do is second place!

Sunrisers!! Remember, you heard it here first!

Yeah, kind of makes you wonder how drum corps managed to survive (read: thrive) without DCI!

Wow, it's not even the end of November and you dudes ONLY have six remaining horn slots in a 72 member line!! Almost sounds too good to be true. Something tells me that if 10 more sopranos show up at your next practice, 9 will not be shown the door! After all, some of them can be switched to mellophone. Gotta watch that balance!!
