Just looking at the pictures... I REALLY like the DM uniform. I'm just going to reserve judgement on the rest of it until I actually see it in person.

Well. Either way, it's the chest strip thingy.

It's just the little metal strip thing they've had on their chest for the past however many years Is there an actual word for that thing?

High school - the particular poster doesn't like it Everything else is a real drum corps uniform though

I'm pretty sure most people wear both/add to their current necklace... I don't think that it's looked down on like wearing another corps apparel would be.

The ones who march euph

Crossmen - I had friends who marched there, I enjoy almost all of their shows, and I just like the attitude/appearance that they always have. They just seem to have this aura of ###### that to me defines drum corps Music City - They had open spots, show music, enjoyable shows in general, and the staff and members are all really cool/friendly people

So much effort put into making a video... this organization is really going downhill

Academy actually switched to Jupiter a few years back. They used to use TAMA. I use a Yamaha baritone at school, a Dynasty euph when I don't have that, and I'll be playing a Jupiter euph this Summer with Music City

Well Genesis has used Tama percussion for a while, and they just recently signed a deal with them to get a whole new line of Tama horns, and Spirit is getting outfitted with new Kanstul horns for next season. I think that's it. But no matter where you go, they will give you a corps horn when you get contracted, even if you have the same make/model of horn. That way if something happens to the horn, it's their instrument, and they can deal with it easily. Plus, you don't really want to subject your personal instrument to a full season of corps... this will be my first season, but I've seen/heard some things... it's just not a good idea lol

They're part of Soundsport I believe? So the kids that make it will march Soundsport this summer.

Back when we didn't have fancy electronic surveys

Cavies are using Yamaha brass and percussion So they would give you a YMP-204M

Welcome to DCP :P Where everything you say will either be over-analyzed or taken the wrong way

You can audition on it. It doesn't matter what brand you use, if it's an F mello, you can use it for auditions. If you get contracted, they will give you a corps horn, and you will march with that from then until the end of the season. That's how pretty much every corps that I know of works.
