Gas prices and it's affect on corps
ToferVis replied to KeithHall's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
hopkins talks about this in his blog somewhere, i remember reading through it and don't remember the details, but something like they had a budget for 4.00 a gallon, then again for 4.50 and it was an crazy amount then. i think like an extra 8000 a vehicle or something, which is crazy. -
i wouldn't call it new unis...it's the same unis....with some alterations....but they'll be cool, i saw them making them, haha.
-
short answer is no....we all know it's probably going to be the cavaliers most likely..and if it looks like that after the first week or 2 of tour, it'll be true at finals.
-
good question, i'd like to know where corps will be staying for both of the Carolina Crown Host Competitions. (living directly inbetween both, i'm sure i'll be near someone)

Bloomington, we have a problem
ToferVis replied to mingusmonk's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
man, i can see hopkins now holding up finals as he stares at the sinkhole and demands it get fixed... let's try not to boo this time =P -
Go give it a watch on the FNet. I'm really digging some of the music they're playing this year also you can download the full show....if you want to pay...which i don't really see the point because we all know it'll change, lol.
-
yea that was some good stuff...gotta love sticking your hands in other hornline member's arm pits during everydays =) Oh, watch crownminute 12.....i'm loving that drum feature and the stuff going on during it.

Which Version is better?
ToferVis replied to jjeffeory's topic in Historical Junior Corps Discussions
haha that's some cool info i didn't know =) oh yea *89 for me* -
i can see your point to be very skeptic...but there's a difference between being skeptic and just negative. *ps i know it's hard in text, but i'm really not trying to be a smartass or anything mean*
-
again, you're still not paying attention. lol. They've spent years working on this. And besides we all know different makes within brands do make a difference. All manufactures make *beginner, intermediate, and professional level horns, while each is from the same company, they can be COMPLETELY different in quality. (and price...)
-
yes that's true, this is not the usual set of jupiter horns. Jupiter really sat down and wanted to become a contender in the drum corps area, and they're getting there. The mellos (as according to the MelloCast) are a really good horn, and it's only a matter of time before that starts happening.
-
I absolutely LOVE the matrix music...been wanting to see it on the field for a while. I feel like i'm really not hearing alot of the inner stuff that's going on, but i'm sure it's going to be AMAZING

Priveleges for marching members only
ToferVis replied to madscout96's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
lmao have to say i've never heard that one, i dunno. -
Priveleges for marching members only
ToferVis replied to madscout96's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
SPLOOOOIEEEEE? lmao opps...i never marched there. -
I'll make a comment, because....i just got back from spring training from the crossmen. Why am I back? money to be honest. although it's a weak point...I didn't have a choice, because it wasn't going to figure itself out on it's own, and i need to go to college and be able to come home to a house. Things didn't go the way they were supposed to. Either way, I think there's usually a said deadline in march (march 15 comes to mind for some reason) That you must have written permission form the corps director to move to another corps. On the other hand, leaving later in the season usually results in a loss of money. In my case, I got tuition back, but not the spring training fee.

What would you change about DCI Fan Network?
ToferVis replied to NeutralNovice's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
wow...105 in a 65 ^^^ lol. anyway. yes i'm a member. Maybe i'm out of the loop and don't know something..but it'd like to see corps that have folded or are inactive too....unless there's a reason they can't do that. -
I heard Phantom was doing that this year with Spartacus....
-
I didn't think anyone liked BD 2005....lol. When I think about it...2005 was a bad year in DCI to me...*just saying, i'll run to my corner now*
-
I could see that very much so. But also in my opinion, the kids who march cadets know it's coming, or at least i would hope so. ALSO while i'm thinking whoever said why would someone who's providing an educational setting put those kids in that position...last timed i check..everything you LEARN educational doesn't happen at a show.
-
lol well...those are no where near the same shows or effect of narration? i mean cadets did a show centered around it. Coats and Crown used it for effect....see the difference? BTW, I'd never boo. lol
-
jesus why is everyone whining lately? How would you access the penalty? That's the problem. If they don't play the minimum time (is there one?) then yes give them a penalty. But at the same time how can you can someone standing still and playing as 'incomplete' (keep in mind i'm getting technical here, and that years ago, it was quiet frequent to see such.) Maybe you can see my argument? It's rather hard to explain how i see it, lol
-
it's not bad...i've never liked the DM uniform though to be honest. I like the corps jacket.but hte DM jacket has just always struck me as weird.
-
funny thing is i've seen highschools who march like the middle school band, it's sad.
-
i wonder if cavies might try the same type of drum? it would at least make more sense with their show? lol.

Fan Network missing some shows
ToferVis replied to jblamb1401's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
