Thanks for posting that, Sam. It was a sad day in American history when the SCOTUS made that ruling.

Yes. BDB and OC are in. If SCVC beat Pioneer they are in. Spartans are the next OC corps that could make it. It's too early to tell.

No. You will see the full shows for the top 15 and maybe snippets from the earlier ones.

Don't you feel the love?

too funny!

Waitting here in Boston, too.

Hi Ray. Nice to see you here.

HYPE!!!.... it's a Bridgemen thing.

Yep, from '78.

Kevin Gamon said about Crusaders Sr: "I kid you not, there's a member of the horn line leaving the field using a walker. He's fine, just finished what he was doing and is getting off the field. He is most definitely hard corps." That's Jim Lutz Sr. aka Papa Lutz. He's 80 and been doing drum corps as a marching member or instructor in the Boston area since he was 9. An original member of Lt Norman Princemen. Marched in the first Mission Drums. Actually Boston has four members that marched that show in the 50's. The guy on the stool travels the farthest to do Boston. He comes from the north of Maine.

QUOTE(Lancerlady @ Aug 5 2006, 11:28 PM) So what did Bridgemen score. OOps wrong thread... Just trying to lighten things up y'all are getting intense about these scores.. Nope, not a wrong thread at all. The Bridgemen actually received a two point penalty for playing complete musical presentations last night (w/verse, chorus, coda, and ending). Then they got another 2 pt penalty for actually laying down a GROOVE in percussion (time plus licks!). Finally, they got a 1 point penaly for actually making the (almost) the entire audience smile, and laugh, and genuinely enjoy THEMSELVES as they enjoyed the Bridgemen! End Quote------- One of our show design staff told us that if we were competing we would receive a 5 point penalty for being entertaining.

You are very very welcome. I'm still trying to figure out who enjoyed themselves more. The fans or the corps.

Here we go again with the PC crowd f###ing something up. If they don't like it, they can stay home. :P

This thread reminded me that I haven't looked at ebay's drum corps stuff recently. So I go over to check it out and what comes up? 77 items found for drum corps (Just a coincidence I tell myself) ^0^
