I have an almost new Dynasty M354 Soprano. No dents, dings, bends, scratches or wear. The horn was used a single season of Mini Corps with The Rocketeers. That equates to approximately 15 rehearsals and 4 performances plus some practice time. This horn has never been marched with or loaded in a pile of horns on a bus or tour truck! It has the double case and a mouthpiece as shipped from Dynasty. All of our sops are now on Kanstul horns. I have a few pics from my cell phone but it hasn't even been cleaned up and looks awesome. Dynasty retails these around $1350. I have seen some dealers in the $900 range new.
Asking $750 + shipping.

Way to go Ron. I am sure you will get some takers.

This just proves DCA is alive and well in the South. Good luck this year and thanks to all the MCL folks that helped kickstart The Rocketeers last year.

Vic Kulinski sent me the date and asked if we were interested. I think Glory is hosting the show.

Sound will be there. Looking forward to see you guys again. Our DCA South show is in Manassas, VA on 7 Jul. What is happening in the Bourbon Capital of Bardstown, KY?
-
While it may not have the name "Division" that is probably what it needs. If there is enough interest it would be great to be able to break it into two divisions. Rookies and Legends! While we are only in our second year, this will be our first year in mini corps. Just the honor to be in the same competition as Star United, Minni Brass, Ghost Riders and all of those who have made it what it is will make it worth the hard work and effort!

Can someone post the historical mini-corps standings for every year since the beginning? All I can find on the DCA website is the last two years.
Thanks

Price reduction on the Bari $100 + shipping. Need it gone as I have bought two more Kanstuls from Carolina Gold.
The soprano is gone. Will consider offers on the bari.

Y'all should perform at some of the DCA South shows!
If it works out we will. It was neat having our first ever performance at the CV show last year. Let us know when your show is and we will see what we can do.

Hey Chris,
Can't make the weekend but will pass the word to other Rocketeers. You might get some of our guys down to jam. If you have anyone show from North Alabama that is looking for a corps home this year tell them to give me a call.

The Rocketeers will perform tonight at the University of Alabama Huntsville hockey game. We are excited about this great opportunity to close out our inaugural year and help ring in the new year! This very well could be our largest local venue yet.
If you are in the North Alabama / Southern Tennessee area please come out and support The Rocketeers and The UAH Chargers!
