Hook'emCavies

I am pleased lol! He just needs to tell the pit to lower the amps and we are good.

Correct. Putting aside my extreme Cavies self, I think it's fair. There was a tie for first which makes, in a sense, 3rd place the kinda sort of 2nd place corps.

I know I'm not the only person watching the heck out of Cavies shows. I just watched 1989 and 1990... gosh, I wish I was there in person to see these shows.

Rumor has it that everyone is actually marching with contras this season.

Tuba!!!!!! Lol! Thank you for the awesome update!

oh hey! I wonder who was playing the bass clarinet during this performance. Lol!!! This piece was fun to play, but we were tired of playing it. We debuted it at CBDNA the previous year and debuted it at TMEA. But there is some DCI show potential. Edit* I feel like a jerk for saying this but please forgive the clarinet section (not the bass clarinets, we rocked it). It sadly wasn't their best performance.

Cavies 92, 95, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2008. Yeah, I didn't get a chance to see The Cavaliers in 2008. I really wish I did....

I believe The Cavaliers will someday... again lol But I'm also very biased lol!!!

I hope they do announce where soon as well... I want to get some tickets for some family that live in that area.

It was scheduled to be used in 2020... but it wasn't due to the Rona

I really considered starting a thread. It's not just the Houston show, but there are others. If I had to guess, Tomball probably pulled out at thr last second. Not sure as to why, but I really hope they announce something soon. I am getting a little impatient lol!! I got to do my budget for the show.... and I need my dose of Cavies lol!!! Edit* They could move in up here to Huntsville. I would still pick Bowers Stadium over the new Huntsville high school stadium (I drive past it almost everyday and it does look good). Better parking, and possibly more seats. Plus, more and more college students are staying in town to work and pay their apartment bills. So, there is an opportunity for my fellow music majors to see a show.

Bump..... Is it bad that I have a timer set up for the Houston show? Lol!!

Seeing Mackey working with Crown gives me some interest. I haven't been able to get into a Crown show since 2016 (they should have kept the original ending), but this is fantastic news for drum corps. Fun fact! When I performed with the Texas Junior College All-State band in 2011, John Mackey worked with us. It was an extremely fun experience and I had NO idea he was going to work with us. Another fun fact... every time I go to TMEA since 2011, we also bump into each other, like, a million times. It's become a "oh, it's this guy again. How's it going man!" Lol!!!! He is a great guy!

Funny enough, a buddy of mine sent this to me a couple of days ago. Go Texan Day is on Friday btw lol

It counts lol

5. Very Cavalier like

Oooooh yeah. Returning staff and percussionists.... they are going to be crazy good.

There is a great possibility that could happen. If you look at the corps history percussion has been stronger than the hornline. But any other given season Cavies 2019 could have took home 1st that category. I think it sparked a lot of interest for those kiddos to audition for this incredible corps. Percussion, Brass, and color guard. I honestly haven't heard anything in terms of direction for this season or what the talent is like... but my gut is telling me to go into it completely blind and enjoy the ride.

Is there anyone else watching any Cavies shows during the Superbowl halftime?

.

Yeah, but they said they were going to announce the venue yesterday.

I just double checked myself to make sure I wasn't going crazy... but DCI did post on Instagram that five DCI tickets in Texas would be on sale today. Something must have fallen through. Does anyone have any details?

I hope so... I partially hope they have the show in Huntsville. VERY doubtful, but I drive past our new stadium just about every other day and it looks nice.

DCI needs to hurry up and announce where The Cavaliers will be performing in the Houston area.

Btw, I'm happy that you're posting again!
