  1. That's where I thought I saw them but didn't notice them on the field.
  2. Like them or not, you won't fall asleep during their show.
  3. Mandarins; Complete show; Nice uniforms; Great run!; Thank you!!!
  4. all these first on music groups are exhibition? It doesn't say that in the scheduling details.
  5. good - let them play as an exhibition before the show starts.
  6. why do they deserve that right? Maybe we should start having a social services band show and these groups can play at that.
  7. feels more like an amateur variety music show. How do they decide who enters this show?
  8. these small corps and bands that play only a couple minutes really extend intermission.
  9. May not be the best venue to play. Good idea to attend and watch and learn. I learned so much by watching when I was young and or not good yet.
  10. Does anyone mind corps not having a full show. It seems they spend the first two weeks learning the end of shows, and then the next 4 weeks changing it. I don't think it's very professional. The corps don't care because they all do it. What about the paying customer. Don't they count for something?
  11. I love the fact that Phantom allows its Drum Majors to be conductors and not merely metronomes out there.
  12. Just wanted to say Congratulations on retiring from the Navy. Did my 4 as a Navy Musician. I commend you for staying in.
  13. Davis, both grandparents will be at Peace. They are totally in awe of your leadership of The Cavaliers. I know because I'm a grandfather, and when my grandsons do something they enjoy my heart is filled with joy. Now, that they are in heaven, when you conduct, they will be filled with Rapture!. God Bless your grandparents, parents for letting you participate in drum corps, and you for choosing such a great thing to do. It's such a wonderful pastime. Mitch
  14. I understand that we are trying to differentiate between female and male; so maybe Drum Major that is female or Drum Major that is Male takes away the gender bias for some.
  15. I'm tired of the Cadets pushing the women issue at every turn. I don't know of a corps that has opened their ranks to anyone; women, men, gay, straight more than The Cadets. So have other corps. I don't think equality comes and stays when you push one segment over the rest. The women have made The Cadets the corps it is and so has every other member that has put on the uniform and marched with The Cadet Pride. It didn't work as this years theme and it won't work for the corps in the future if you don't get off the guilt trip.
  16. Ghost, this reply is child like. Does it always have to be who's better or stronger.
  17. If both props and judges cause injuries to MM, but only judges were quarantined to the sidelines, then it is not about safety.
  18. any special reason why all the Beatle people visually introducing each song are dressed in black/white?
  19. I think corps have generally cut the size of the presentation field down already whether or not the Pit is on the field or not.
