COME on up to Rochester this weekend and have some fun with Empire..... this year is going to be fuuuuun.

LOL!!!

Same thread as the DCI version, but so all you DCA people can see it too. Tony Odello 12/1/1919-3/17/09 Tony Odello and his wife were the founders of the Blue Devils in 1957. ...

...

I agree with you, even if Empire wont ever wear hats, I still think that hats make a huge difference visually.

A black shako would look sweet!

Hey Al.....can't wait for you to come up and help us out at Empire again....####....####!!! LOL!

Wow, it looks awesome!

This is great, thank you!

I'm not sure if I said this detailed enough(sorry, lol) but I meant like do they have an internet source on where the camps are held, Times, Fees, FAQ's, etc.

I'm not auditioning for Cadets, but I was wondering where all the audition info is? I looked on the website and their isn't anything. I'm looking at corps because im going to DCI next year, and I want to find some things out about the Cadets. I just cant find any info on auditioning.

I'd buy Empire new uniforms, horns, Up the staff payment, and give a lot to Dave Bruni for his and his fathers hard work for Empire and many other corps.

The same thing was happening at my school district. The band teacher that was horrible finally retired and we got James Peer, who marched with Star of Indiana in 1991, their winning year and he marches with Blast and toured with them in Japan, so this guy is VERY serious about band and he has been doing a fantastic job. Wish I could stay in middleschool just for him.

Yes it is, I forgot to put that in there...my bad

Empire Statesmen is recruiting people in all sections...Come on down and check us out, its a blast! Next camp is at the Bingo Palace in Rochester, NY from: March 28th + 29th Saturday 4 P.M-8 P.M Sunday 9 A.M-3 P.M You wont regret coming! For more info go to www.statesmen.org

Empire Statesmen 97 had bicycle like. Cadets nowaday dont have knees at all, they walk as if they have long peg legs

joey pero could play that whole thing by himself, then 100 times over again

Yes, I actually enjoy not being able to hang out with friends over summer, instead, I hang out with my drum corps friends at ES and it is FUN!

If I couldnt march with Empire, I'd probably march either Brigs, Renegades or Bush. BUT, since I have my own choice, Empire it is!

Bucs have been doing a very good job for the past 4 years. I enjoy the competition they give us, and they set the standard that we need to be to finally beat them. They ARE good and you cant say they arent. This year will be interesting, No one can know that anyone will beat the bucs until we see the shows.

The show was a blast! I love the Dundee crowd. Our first standing ovation of the year.

Hey Sara....I'm going to DCI next year too. Where are you planning to try out? I'm considering Bluecoats, Troopers, Spirit, Jersey Surf. Thats some of the corps that arent that far from us=P Maybe we will end up going to the same corps?

heh, so do the brigs.

Did Empire win horns in 06? If they didnt, Im shocked, I thought it was a great hornline. I love that show. One of our better guard years too.

I cant imagine Phantom playing Jazz, they have such a nice Symphonic sound. It doesnt fit.
