I can see one picture that a certain drum major will want to have & frame for his family. :D
Definitely a great shot of the CorpVets' DM!

Do you guys know who I might talk to to get a copy of a picture someone took of our crew (Chris or Greg, I think) back then [2004]? It was cycling in your picts *three years ago* post parade, but I can't find it in your site archives now.
Shame on me for not asking sooner. :) If you can help, I'll give you more details about the pict I remember!
Sooooo ... no one can help me track down a copy of the picture? Don't mean to be a pest ... my bad for not asking a few years ago.
... just curious if someone can help. B)
Thx.

Hey..........Is that Stoli in the pic with ya?
Say hi to him for me!`
Yes ... and will do!
In fact, the pict I'm looking for is Stoli, me, the Govies-DM - John Mayer and his beautiful wife, Tamara.

Excellent ... thinking back to our trek out a few years back to march with you. What a blast! I can't believe it will be three years already.

I really enjoyed the post that called some of our members "large". We prefer the term phat-ast in the Govies. The thing that is related to that reply is the problems the large mammered woman in the picture had strapping on that monstrosity. Thanks, JS. b**bs
I have to admit, what you wrote here is exactly what crossed my mind when I read the post about our "large" performers. Chesticles aside, I think the horn makes me look thin. I know this is looking ahead, but I might just wear one of those to banquet next year.

Smoothy, I just have to search you out at Patricks during the St. Peter show next year and buy you a beer.
C'mon folks.
Heya, Curt ... I'd be happy to introduce you two. I keep thinking you and Roark have to meet, as well, as your stories are similar ... coming back to drum corps and marching after an extensive hiatus. B)
And to the rest of you getting worked up over the great picture S1 posted?
I know a great oboe player I'd love to have march with us too.

Tentative forecast for St. Paul, Minnesota on Saturday, February 3, 2007:
*High ~ 4F
*Low ~ -1F
These temps are excluding any potential windchill. This is going to be interesting. B)

OK Mr BS.
If you are camping with all of us Blasters, there is some ground rules that you must agree to.
6) fire wood, don't care who you are with, NEED WOOD!
Norwegian Wood?

(The Original El Guapo @ Sep 11 2006, 02:51 PM)
so I take it we are going camping?
ummm......
yes
That's Tremendous!

... and maybe some cymbals if anyone is interested

Cant wait for next year...it might just be Tremendous
That's a TREMENDOUS idea!! :)
Pictures will be posted very very soon.. . . . . still waiting! I would use caution though. I mean, look what a buzz kill the other B.S. pictures were when they were posted ... on the TREMENDOUS Thread! b**bs
Sorry I didn't get around to giving you a call after we caught up at the grill. When I got back to where the rest of the Tremendous gang had been hanging out, most folks had dispersed to bars around town or back to the camp ground. Burt and I headed back to the camp ground as well for more Schell's, a few toasted marshmallows and s'mores, some fire juggling (however .. not naked, like last year), A LOT of good laughs . . . . . and a few more Schell's!!

Hey Jenn, is that me just to the left of your head?
Why YES! I believe it is you. b**bs
Nice jorb.
I'm leaving the office now ... see you in San Pedro for the Tremendous Departure!

Well, our first priority is getting tents set up in the dark. Some people will likely try to hit the bars after getting settled into the campsite. We usually plan on hitting the South Festgrounds on Saturday night for our Annual Corps Banquet! . . . . that follows our Annual Corps Meeting at the camp ground, which follows the Annual OktoberFest Parade. You get the idea. :)
What I am trying to say is that it may be hard for all of us to make plans with all of you tonight, unless you want to take the shuttle across the river to Pettibone! :P
Saturday day or night is a much better bet for hanging out and helping us celebrate our victory over you!
b**bs

May I kindly remind you all . . . . this is a TREMENDOUS BLAST! thread. j/k
TREMENDOUS BLAST is camping! And what a gorgeous weekend for camping it will be!!!
Perhaps there will be space at Pettibone if you're interested in joining US!!
WOOT WOOT! b**bs
-
Why yes, yes I am.....lol
I take it I will see you this weekend??
######. And it took me THIS long to figure it out. :mmm:
(I meant DARNIT!)
AND YES . . . . ^OO^
Don't forget, OKTOBERFEST is a BLAST!
-
El Guapo .. gotta ask this one.
Are you, by chance, the Sopie Kilt who I stood next to a few times this season during DCM retreats .... when others couldn't remember that we needed to distribute evenly across the field instead of only to one side??
-
Check out the forecast for LaCrosse!

Look.
And a close look at the new uniform we have all heard rumors of.
Sadly, this pictures makes me think of a plaid corps we all know, wearing their kilts incorrectly.
*shrugs*
Plaid is not a Tremendous color. :P
-
-
John M! Better hurry up, the drumlines that are leading
retreat are proceeding without you in front of them!
Oh what shall they do without their Tremendous DM
always leading them?
As much as John is a ... well ... spokesperson, if you will, for Tremendous Blast, he is not the Drum Major. You may be reflecting back upon John's days leading another amazing Midwest drum and bugle corps.
The Tremendous Corps Director is no other than the funny, the witty, the charismatic ... the infamous Burt Madsen!!

b**bs
That picture is MUCH less scarey. Thank you. :-)
Wow, we were pretty #### cool when we did the face-paint-thing, weren't we?!?!!
B)
-
That picture scares me.
-
I'll dance with ya John . . . as long as we don't end up in some weird bunny hop / congo line again this year.
And I'll try not to be hungover before our banquet starts. <**>
You might be surprise, WannaBeTubaMan, John might even be able to sweep you off your feet with his extreme polka talent.
*phew*

What's the scoop on housing and stuff?
And is anyone coming from anywhere in the Southeast that might have room for a rider?
I am sure we can throw in a few extra tents for ANY and ALL of you coming from out of state or out of territory!
DO NOT MISS THIS TREMENDOUS OPPORTUNITY!
OKTOBERFEST 2005
