Sabers did beat Bush in brass, just saying...

I'm writing some arrangements for a few corps members to play this year at I and E's and was wondering what exactly the guidelines for piece selections/arrangements are. I can't seem to find any information on it. Does anyone know, or can someone link me to a place where I can find this information? Thanks!

Any reviews of the CNS show??

Whoopsie, I just read that you missed us. We heard that someone in the audience passed out during our show. Hope they are okay. Did anyone else happen to see us perform?

What about White Sabers??

the weather was indeed nasty, but well worth waiting for it to let up. polyester uniform + rain = smelly garment bag

I was only able to catch the last 3 groups, so I apologize for not being to review the others. Please do not come after me with torches and pitchforks either. I am not out to get anyone, just stating my OPINIONS. opinions, of which are neither right nor wrong. I have to start out by saying that I feel as though when it came to scoring, all of the Class A groups that were there got the shaft. the scores all seemed very low... Cru: I have seen them perform several times this season, and I felt that their brass line sounded very good in Reading. I must add that it is unfortunate that their colorguard is not at the same level as the rest of the group. While executed quite well, I found myself a bit confused by their book. I enjoy Holst, but was unable to see any cohesiveness between the different selections, other than that they were all Holst. I also feel that "Jupiter" has kind of been done to death in terms of drum corps...Like I said though, nice execution. Cabs: Last time I saw them perform was at the Kingston show, and I must admit that I felt they had a better performance there than in Reading. Don't get me wrong, they were amazing in Reading. It just seemed as if they kind of ran out of steam towards the end of their show. Also, where do I inquire to get me a pair of those swishy pants? Bucs: They were amazing, and their scores showed it. I had a hard time deciding what to watch because there was so much going on (this is a compliment). There were a few drops in the guard, but the recoveries were amazing, and that's what matters. I also enjoyed how the guard had a costume change. again, these are just my opinions. I am hoping that my review will inspire others to do the same, as reviews this season have been few and far between...

Thank you for the wonderful review! It's nice to have at least one this week, since NO ONE reviewed the Waterloo show last week. On a side note, does anyone know where we can view the professional pics that were being taken on the field this weekend during the show? Thanks!

WS drum major in Auburn was Ben Chaffee.

Seize the Day: That's my arrangement!!! So excited that you are playing it!!
