    Hearing someone complain about scores is about as interesting as hearing a stoned teenager describe the plot of "Donnie Darko"

      Less interesting. Even teenagers usually have less of an "I know everything" attitude than drum corps fans.

    Are I&E results being posted anywhere

      DCI posted them to their website yesterday afternoon. http://www.dci.org/news/view.cfm?news_id=4652af7d-1571-4418-803e-94f62848ec02

      Good parody. You've got the rhythm and the feel. I've always thought we could use this software on DCP, too... http://xkcd.com/481/

    DCP turns 10 on 2/14/12. Where have the years gone?

    1. hostrauser

      hostrauser

      Ten? That will make DCP more mature than half of its users! *ba-dup-ching!*

    Under SOPA, you could get 5 years in prison for uploading a Michael Jackson song, or one year more than the doctor who killed him received.

      Erm, yes, every country has their own laws.

      While the concept of punishing copyright violations is sound, the SOPA and PIPA bills are SO extreme, SO broadly-worded, and SO over-reaching it would basically remove everyone's right to do anything online. Basically, under SOPA, small misdemeanor acts are turned into felonies, and the government can act against you WITHOUT due process.

    I used to be a productive member of society like you, then I took a Skyrim to the brain.

    1. hostrauser

      hostrauser

      Heh. I've spent the past several years immersed in Oblivion. Skyrim's a whole new ballgame. Quite a few changes to the game-play. Love them both, though.

    Getting better at writing music one day at a time!

    1. hostrauser

      hostrauser

      For me, composition is definitely one of those fields where "the more you know, the more you know you don't know." The music I write now is leagues better than what I was writing ten years ago... but the gap between where I am and where I want to be regarding composition seems to only have grown larger.

    Been watching DCI Stanford videos on YouTube and I just have to say it: this is the most visually boring Blue Devils' show in 20 years.

    1. hostrauser

      hostrauser

      I mean, they can play like WHOA and this should be an APD star of the summer... but that drill sucks. It just straight sucks. Modest tempi, tons of follow-the-leader and block movement, absolutely nothing attempted by the brass while playing. Just... wow.

    Kardashians on QVC tonight. Why don't they just work a souvie booth?

      You've been watching news coverage of Michele Bachmann again, haven't you?

      No? Just me? Well, I am a mental patient...

    So far, I think Phantom is winning for best new uniform. Strangely enough, Academy's quasi-mariachi look is a 2nd in my book.

    1. hostrauser

      hostrauser

      All I've got to go on in a drawing, but I think the Cascades will win that contest with me. Though I do like Phantom's new look, too.

  16. MikeN

    I thought the Cadets weren't changing their uniforms. Now they're revealing the new unis on 5/19? What did I miss in between?

    1. hostrauser

      hostrauser

      George Hopkins.

    If I could be granted one drum corps wish, it's that the Blue Devils would lose the white stripes on the unis.

    1. hostrauser

      hostrauser

      Not a fan of the stripes. Love the drop-cape/sash/skirt.

    Not corps related - UEFA sticks a microphone under Jose Mourhino's nose after losing a heated game and then gets mad when he pops off. Unreal.

    1. hostrauser

      hostrauser

      Mourhino had a right to be livid. Barcelona's played a cheap, slimy game. Dani Alves deserves to be kicked right in the crotch.

    The more I think about it, the more I like Madison with the white ties rather than the neckerchiefs.

    1. hostrauser

      hostrauser

      The more I think about it, the more the 1990s Madison uniforms (green tops, red sash, white pants) seem like the only ones they should ever wear.

    I don't follow WGI percussion all that closely - who are the World heavy hitters this year?

    1. hostrauser

      The usual suspects, in other words.
