Didn't hire me eh?? Did you read page 9 of my resume Randy??? ok enough said....saturday!!! Be There!!

:tongue:a little humour amidst some serious chaos..noted and appreciated...not making light of the thread just recognizing your attemp to take an eighth note rest

We have assembled a good group of people who care about what we do and how we do it. That is really important here. I love that line. It should and probably is the Drum Corps mantra for most groups. Sounds like exciting times ahead for the "Grennies "Don !! As usual go to www.kingstongrenadiers.com...I think that is the right webaddy???

Thanks I appreciafy that!

If my sources are correct "Kingston Grenadiers" 1'st week-end Camp/rehearsal will be November1'& 2' 2008! Anyone from that corps going to post on this site a preview or a hint of this years' show??? Also maybe if you could enlighten the drum corps world on your picks for Designers , caption heads the whole "9" yards??/I know I never received a response to my application for Visual??/Just wondering?? Secret Sam Randy keeps his options open eh?

Yes..." Happy Thanksgiving" It was glorious weather this past week-end.....turkey cooking and beer drinking in the backyard!! I am thankful for the resurgence of the" Kingston Grenadiers"......did you forget that they have been a very important part of Canadian Drum corps??????? Ah the GTA ATTITUDE!!! ANYWAY go vote!!! However before I end this post..I loved Commanders...... when I was a Kid.. but I am 54 .. now..so wow time fly bye eh??

I know this has probably been said before..but..This is what drum corps is about..friends .new and old and just good people!! Nice story..and good for you guys !!! Awesome stuff!! Family for sure.

That is so cool!!!! Good Luck Folks..Hoping to meet you sometime in 09!! Just great to see corps growing!

Those traits of yours...Pride, Heritage, Tradition and Passion..will never be condemned...at least not in our Drum Corps Community /Family.....NEVER!!!

Now there you go..I knew there were good people out there! Oui. ...Vive La Drum Corps eh??? Tambours et clarions ..just an Anglais that tried to march with..............but got cut...

Now that I have finally seen the pic of the Honour guard..looks to me that the Guy carrying the USA Flag was just shorter than the guy with the Canadian Flag..or for conspiracy theorists..the Quebec Flag seems higher than the Canadian Flag...soooooooooooo,,.....that spells separatist conspiracy.....French vs. English...English vs French.... could spin anything from that picture...but it simply is not true..and that is fact...mistakes are only mistakes......and I do agree that Honour and Tradition are important...no disagreemant Diceman.....sometimes things get interpreted wrong on sites like dcp and emotion takes over before ..well..you know.....clear thinking...lol...anyway Flag ettiquete will have been learned by many after this thread!!! God Bless this world!!! PEACE!!

and I believe you are right!! constructive criticism again.... I did not mean any disrespect..I am just so sick of the disrespect for North America..hey guys we are all in this together...and I know this is a place to do our opinions...I love Canada and the United States of America..just sometimes I feel we get sidetracked on who we are as a people and continent and dare I say planet earth enuff said from me...continue with the debate it is good..and it is always a good thing to learn something ..God bless and hey..be careful out there!!! I meant absolutely no slight to anyone!! Okay I disrespect some people like HMMMM...the geek from Iran oh well ..Oil see yah later Ayah tollyou so

You keep saying that you love Dips...and you say don't mean to Tic Les Dips and although you say they were direspectful you honestly don't think they meant it???? Then ...exactly what do you want??Just curious...and I mean no disrespect as well......have read and seen all kinds of cases of disrespect for flags...our own countrymen burning the flag.....my God how low can you go with that...but simple ettiquette mistakes if they were?? leave it alone .. save it for the Iranians!!! Or the madman from North Korea... or Putin or The real enemies..not drum corps !! Sorry!!

Yah if memory serves me correctly..back in the 70's we travelled to Maryland ..actuallly Cumberland....great stadium and great people...just wonderful time....but no "Blue"..actualy no beer at all what the hell..hope the rules have gotten more liberal...LOL LOL .. in reality I have nothing but great memories of Cumberland.....and a man in RCA ... I Think his name was Bill Fazenbaker who made us young canadians feel like we were important and welcome in your city and state..Great times!!

Mine too!! depending on the formula you could be 16'th or 22n'd..or 1'st and 5'th or 7th' and 12'th....hava a "Blue" and make it all go away !!!

Adam, just to make things clear..okay?? Randy had the "Cold" hamburger helper..I on the other hand...sipped on Napa Valley's finest wine well supping on a t-bone steak the size of Robbo!!! Being old has some perks and privileges.............lol lol...and hey??? there you go......but salad still works...and again..I will work for salad eh ?? With a side of "Canadian"

love to see a dozen corps from Canada!!!! Man way back when...if anyone remembers......Ambassadors, Commanders, Royalaires, Kavaliers,Grenadiers,Imperial Knights, and that was just the Seniors...and I kow I have left lots out but my memory is... well....junior corps was even more awesome...and corps from the gta and then quebec omg junior a junior b even junior c...jeez what we had where did everyone go...lol guess we grew up, had children and went on.....drum corps.....such a great activity.......a lifetime of memories........come on let's do it again..just one more time eh??? life is too short......do it now!!! love and peace :worthy:

could be worse....could be 3.00 a.m. and cold hamburger helper!!!! Right???? lol lol

Rumour has it that some people are on the move...that's cool..but if you need something other than the great program offered by Shackleton and company ..give me a brief e-mail with your thoughts ideas and goals... If Brenda's "wraps, and special meals as well as goodie desserts are not the bonus then enjoy..but remember.......you are always always welcome!!! Snare70@yahoo.com.......give me a reason to bake you some cookies!!!! and of course always a cold "canadian" Have fun!!!

Okay, Randy...I understand!!!!!!! I have pared down my resume to 24 pages..could you at least convince Don to do a quick scan with you??? Will work for salad!!!!

Mr. Dean I certainly do know what we do really well. The covetted award that went to melligene again this year???

Work those chops biggie..from what I read on this site...you and Gordo and the Josh man are going to be awesome!!!!

Grenadiers like many corps' have always done the long bus ride thing..goes with the territory.......when my good buddy Don decided we had to go DCA ..little did I know that meant leaving Kingston at Midnight on Friday night and arriving to most of our destinations..at 7.00 a.m. the next morning!!! and then setting up.., practicing , most of the day,shower, show...back on the bus and home sometime Sunday...work on Monday!!! Holy Crapp...what a life....yet we are all in it together....from up here in canada to down there in georgia ,texas florida and way way way out west.....Minnesota Wisconsin..etc..etc..
