Walked up at about 5:45 and was in my seat in 440 at 6:05. Wanted to see the Marines. Walked right past the ridiculous lines toward the corps truck lot where there were short lines. Not sure why all had grouped up at the other end? Just have to not mindlessly get in line- go check it out for yourselves first!
I mean he quite literally was the organizations leadership. He wasn’t going to fire himself. And there wasn’t a functional board. NOW there is a new director and a functional board (and they are still adding to that board) and this is the very quick result. I see this as a very positive move for the corps.
Point of reference- he hasn’t been the executive director since last August. Was a sitting BOD member. Now is not that either. (His wife, who used to be on the board, was not currently)
They now have a new director and a new board and they seem to be on top of things. Very clear response to the posts last night and then this tonight. Good signs from the new administration.
Agreed. I wish it were the case that judges judged the show in front of them, but that never happens. It’s all about last year’s placement for a while. Hopefully it won’t take them too long to figure out. It was certainly pretty obvious to me.
Yep and therein lies a big problem for all involved. I’m continually amazed that this story has remained under wraps- sort of. One of those worst kept secrets type of thing.
Worst response ever. Victim blaming. Tone deaf. Is there no one there with a clue?? After this horrid response the only choice is for the whole BOD to go. My goodness I didn’t realize there could be a whole group of people so incredibly stupid. Come on YEA do better.
So, what does a drummer say to people at his job?
How can you tell if a drummer is knocking at the front door?
"Do you want fries with that?"
He rushes.
