  1. Hey BariDad. SCOTUS declared Stolen Valor Act limits Free Speach - So, I guess that means I can tell the world I'm the first Navy Musician to be awarded 3 Congressional Medals' of Honor. How many do you want???

    Oh, a Navy Cross and maybe an Air Medal. (Just kidding!!!!)

    We'll just have to root out the fibbers and expose them, kinda like here on DCP. LOL

  2. Did Spirit have some re-writes or changes that they put in for this show? Or was it not the best run for them? Just trying to figure out why their score was off tonight?

    The word on the FB page is it was just an off night--it just "didn't click". Nothing that can't be addressed and fixed.

  3. Some photos from the show via Spirit's FB page.

    Spirit's Drum Major's podium is setup only a yard or 2 in front of the grandstand (which, as has been said in this thread, goes straight up. See 2nd photo).

    Good job to Spirit and all the Corps for dealing with what appears to be an unusual setup.

    And--good job to the front row spectators for being able to collect your faces after the show. The clean-up crew appreciates your efforts. :tongue:

  4. Assuming those scores are right, everyone went up except Spirit. Off night, off judges, either way it's June and another exciting drum corps season!

    I heard it was an off night for Spirit. But hey, it's still only June! Better to get them "off nights" over with instead of saving them up for August.

    Congrats to ALL the Corps! Kudos to Bluecoats!

  5. Nothing would make me happier than to have Crown and Cadets battle all season long, up until finals night. I just think the competitiveness pushes the kids harder, and the final product will be that much better!

    I hear you and agree such a battle is great for Drum Corps.

    But...I don't think the old ticker can take a repeat of 2009! :blink:

  6. Great - Mu-2 me also!! It was a nice gig. and you got to retire from the military - nice going. Thank you for serving!

    Mitch

    Yeah--I couldn't make MU1--all the promotion spots went to the US Navy Band and Annapolis. But was messing around with synths (which is why you won't hear me bad mouthing synths here on DCP) and got into computers.

    And thank you for your service!!!
