    Hi everybody,

    I am a Music Education major at the University of North Texas and will be a senior in the fall. My goal upon graduation is to become a high school band director in Texas. Many of the top band directors have performed with a Drum and Bugle Corps which enhances their teaching skill set and marketability immensely.

    I began working very hard this past January 2013 learning to play the tuba. I have been a woodwind (saxophone) player since the 6th grade. At the March camp, I was offered a position with the Crossmen. This has been one of the hardest things I have worked for and I'm extremely happy to be spending a rook-out season with the Crossmen.

    I am a self-supporting college student and am now raising my $3000 tour fees. The costs include instruction, uniforms, food, housing, equipment, and transportation. It would mean so much to me if you could donate to help out with my tour fees. I would be very appreciative of any amount. Thank you so much for your help and I hope to see some of you at a show this summer!

    General 2013 Audition Thread

    in DCI World Class Corps Discussions

    Posted

    I'm a 3rd year music ed major at University of North Texas sax player. For months I have been deciding if I should march next summer, which would be my last, or not. In May, I started learning mello and after 3 weeks, I just stopped because I decided not to do it. Then 5 days ago, I really got the fire going and I fully intent to audition for Crossmen, Madison Scouts and Phantom Regiment. So far, I feel like I have been improving every day with 45 min of practice. In 3 months, I have no idea where I will be, but I hope to be proficent enough to play. From a visual satndpoint, I feel I am very good and able to take instruction and make progress immediately. As this is my last chance to audition, I really want this to happen. Thoughts? Thanks, any comments are appreciated!

    it's because the drill looks like it's 15 years old!!!!! it's way past time PR reinvents their style. stagnation kills!!!!

    For much of the show I agree that the drill design looks like it's from the mid-90s. But there are a couple of really sweet moments in there.

    What's wrong with 90's drill? We all loved it back in the day...just because everybody else is going in a new direction doesn't mean PR should...

    there are great acoutstics. i think the sound of the baritones and tubas you will be impressed with. :)

    the alamodome is a wee bit confusing with the entrances and exits and parking could be a problem. but there are neighborhoods close by so if parking is a problem, you could always park there and walk.

    the food is expensive and just not so good. if there was a dinner break, the riverwalk is only a 5-10 minute walk as it is right there. if you have a chance friday or saturday lunch or even sunday, i would check it out.

    Atlanta Questions

    if you are going to atlanta, i would reccommend going to see the show with good seats. Atlanta contest is a time of year where the corps are at their best, and that is a real treat to see. If it were a smaller contest like Saginaw, then I would walk the lots, but for Atlanta, get good seats. :)
