2010 BD is a good example but the naysayers don’t mean “that kind of jazz”. I love that they totally threw down and rubbed it in everyone’s face. Yeah, I’m petty that way. Lol

I’m so glad you discovered this film. The film The Summer of ‘42 also has a good soundtrack by Legrand. 27th Lancers did a Legrand tune from the movie Yentl in 1984 that I really liked. It’s on the tube if you want to take trip in the way back machine. Hope you’re doing well. It’s been a while.

Ouch! What miserable human beings to do that sort of thing to hard working kids. <looks over glasses snootily> That would never fly at Lambeau! The fans literally line up to help shovel out the stadium seating. Lol

There was a year in Madison for finals that was unseasonably cold. I can’t remember which year. My high school band did a halftime show on the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field Thanksgiving weekend one year. It was bitter cold but we didn’t care. It was too darn exciting to be playing a Packer game. Go Pack and **** the Bears! (It was actually Detroit, but still...)

‘03 Crown - Carol of the Bells

I guess if the events are exhibition only, anything goes.

I just watched Garfield ‘82 on Thursday because I wanted to see how it set the tone for ‘83 and the subsequent threepete.

Let’s have some fun. What gutsy moves by corps can you come up with? Do you think they paid off? Here’s a couple of my examples: SCV introducing asymmetrical drill in 1981. It hurt them at the time but pushed the activity forward. Blue Knights playing First Circle in 2013. Blue Devils and Crossmen had already given us great renditions and although BK didn’t break any new ground with the piece I feel they put their unique imprint on it. Mandarins, Blue Star and Academy Musicale doing incredibly ambitious shows when they were DIII corps and showing us size doesn’t matter.

Point out in either of my posts where I mentioned someone being a troll.

It’s just a matter of time before your multiple accounts start arguing with each other.

I got a similar vibe from their posting history. They just sort of showed up and jumped right in. I’m questioning whether they are indeed a female of marching age. Another red flag for me is their lack of critical thinking skills that drum corps teaches and/or looks for in potential members.

No, it hasn’t.

I’m from WI also. It doesn’t bother me so much that they can’t be counted until election day but rather that people expect instant results. Democracy is messy!

I think the tabulators are doing just fine considering the unprecedented amount of mail-in ballots. We just need to be patient.

I don’t think hazing has been an issue since the Florida A&M hazing death in 2011. There might be some rare cases perpetrated by knuckleheads but administrators and directors no longer turn a blind eye to it.
