Doesn't SoundSport give ratings only? Uncertain.
yep, Soundsport scoring is like 'Who's Line Is It Anyway' where the points are made up and don't matter anyway. Ratings only, and they have no bearing on the rating you may have gotten at another Soundsport show earlier in the year. Completely arbitrary to the day of the show!

Missing in action so far: DCA. It's a much smaller organization than DCI, with, I believe, just one full-time staffperson (office manager?), but you'd think by now they'd have said something about the "all age" corps (whose membership has been largely under 21) that won their circuit just two years ago (and was third last year and second three years ago).
Erie Thunderbirds have posted a response on their pages regarding policies and youth protection.

My buddy called me the night before and said he was picking me up at 7 for camp.... I didn't believe him until the knocking started on my door. It was worth it though!

The procedures that were given to you for the BOA show at the dome are EXACTLY what we went through as performing corps this last summer. For spectators entering, they did not have staff enough to handle the crowd in a timely matter, and for performers and staff it was even more in depth than for spectators (I entered the stadium both ways at different times for the show)
Communication between groups of security staff was also #### poor and I got very short with a supervisor at one point. Had several security staff persons telling me conflicting instructions and not relenting, despite having an all access pass. Very frustrating!
Hope ya have a good show and definitely have all your ducks lined up heading to performance. If you don't need it, don't take it.

Did anyone find out what happened to the site or Glen Weber? I've been trying to track down the site for an old recording.
Thank you,

Whatcha lookin' for?

Bump for 2016. Only alumni and mini corps at this point (no one competing) correct?
Incorrect. Kilts, Tradition, and Erie are all competing on the field with G Bugles still.

Cincinnati Tradition is also listed for the Dublin Show
-
Yes but will they play the RUMPS this year?!?!
-
Alright, this is going to be fun. Can't wait to see the new Ignition in action!
-
Tradition is mixed - mostly Kanstul but still some Dynasty. All 3v, all in G.
-
BTW - Did they announce what was the faction that won the Best Showmanship from MBI? Just curious.
The tight rope walker
-
Lots of whoa and wow!
-
Pit and drums start this show. We hear glimpses of Kiltie favorites like My Favorite Things and Auld Lang Syne.Horns come in and, after the intro, begin playing the Holst suite, one of my favorite band compositions.
Don't know about live, but they sound muddy compared to normal bass drum on the stream
-
Brass was scary for a half second in that acapella section, but the rest has been pretty solid. The intensity and drive of this show is a big step up
-
That was a fun show! I did get a kick outta the bass prop and the use of the space. Hurcs played well!
-
That might be a DCA first, soloist on a Dizzy bell Trumpet!
-
Last G corps we'll see today
-
Ya think we'll see any movement? I wouldn't be surprised
-
Thank you Govenaires!
-
This looks like it may be the biggest Govies corps I've ever seen! Alright!
-
Govies with some masks covering their mouths?
-
Alliance is definitely going to get attention. Sounding good!
-
Stream has been awesome. What's the crowd size
As soon as I read this, the stream froze. Restarted it and we're good again... but don't do that again :p
-
Snow flakes coming onto the field. Not sure they are going to last.
I see what you did there...
WTT - Kanstul 'Commandant's Own Contra Bugle
in DCP Marketplace
Posted
Hey there DCP friends!
I have one of the Commandant's Own contra bugles (2v with the 1/2 step rotor) and I am looking to trade it for a Bb marching tuba. Preference for silver Yamaha/King/Kanstul/Dynasty/System Blue. I don't need a beauty queen but a solid playable horn will be great!
Contra is in great playing shape, all valve and slides move perfectly, recently had it cleaned out. Shows some signs of wear and minor dents as should be expected with a well loved contra but it is a great playing horn still. Kanstul did a great job designing these to retain a fantastic tuba sound still in a G bugle!
Let me know what you'd like to trade, best way to reach me is by email mdwilliamsmusic@gmail.com Pictures are available on request.
