Hey Dynasty:
Just for next year, you should probably know that Rochester Crusaders have used Dynasty horns for the last 3 years. Just in case you want to take some more pictures :)
I see Kilts getting 10th personally... Then again I also see Gades not making finals, and Cru up in 8th, maybe even 7th if they work the few tricks up their sleeves. Politics or not, I've seen Cru's show, and they look ready.
When I think of drum corps, I dont think of the shows I see on the field, but rather the countless hours of the individual in rehersals, and whatnot. Drum corps is not just what the audience sees, but is also the experience that a person has while on tour, and I believe that thats the concept that the cadets are getting at.
its some pretty awesome music arranged by a pretty awesome arranger, and will be performed by a very awesome corps this summer. (i'm sure you'll see more once there is a release by bh)
ahhh, i had an excellent time last weekend. This weekend should be even better. lol "So I guess this is one big follow the leader, and no one told me i was the leader!!!" -poots. hahaha, just wow.
I don't care who you are, but its biased and downright rude to talk down another corps. Especially since you affiliated yourself with the corps that initially got an opinion told that they did not agree with. What the review did was took a third party view on the performance, and what you said is just wrong to do in drum corps. I really hope someone in your organization talks to you/ the rest of your corps about this kind of attitude that you portrayed, because you just showed the drum corps world the type of attitude that I'm sure your corps does not want to be associated with.
I think its absolutely hilarious that everyone is going to complain who made the top 8. I mean drum corps fans voted for them, so obviously, the ones that most people wanted, were the ones they showed. I personally enjoyed the whole show.
Its pretty safe to say that the 8 corps in the countdown will be Blue Devils, Bridgemen, Cadets, Cavaliers, Madison Scouts, Phantom Regiment, Santa Clara Vanguard, and Star of Indiana. I mean common, they specifically name all of these corps in the letter.
I think I might just show up, again, lol (i love the family feeling they have there. its very unique to dca) should be fun, and who knows who ill bring with me. B)
