Best 10 corps to never win DCI
Bucbari replied to Bob984's topic in Historical Junior Corps Discussions
I would also go with Velvet Knights, Sky Ryders and Freelancers. Outstanding corps with iconic shows and Sky Ryders possibly the best 12 th place corps ever. -
Yeah Mike right at the end before the final hit to end the show

Come on Mike and Northern Thunder, you didn't hear that? Sorry guys find that hard to believe, its pretty clear! For the OP I've heard the story that it was a staff member who shouted that and I will state that PR should have won that night!!

They're trashing our trophies
Bucbari replied to Pete Leland's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I think it has alot to do with the disconnect between music programs and marching bands in particular in communities who see marching band as nothing more than adjunct of a bunch of kids playing a silly game, and their main job is to provide entertainment at half time. How many times were you were called a nerd because you were actively involved in the high school music program? Its just not that important and not cool in high school and things haven't really changed. When was the last time you saw cuts in the football program to keep music programs alive in HIgh Schools? From these programs come the MMs who march Dci and compete at levels that your typical high school football player will never understand or achieve! Teach a kid to play football and he is finished at 18 years of age for 99% of the kids. Put a horn in a kids hand at 12 and he's a musician for life! -

So does anyone have an idea when these news stories will be published? -
I'm going to go with 71 because i saw a big chunk of prelims, why? BECAUSE I'M THE GUY WHO GOT LEFT BEHIND!!!! I wanted to kill my seat mate, a drummer named Jack, remember him Fran?...his father was a cop in Manville....lol. The drum line was a little ###### at him for some reason and if I remember correctly they practiced part of the show....on his stomach!!! when we were crossing the bridge into Wildwood at the AL States. I remember I somehow got his wallet and threw it out the window into the sound.😆 Years afterward , long after I stopped marching a friend of mine who marched Blue Rock told me I was a legend....lol
