  1. Cool story bro. Maybe if you had paid attention at University, you'd know how making and running a YouTube channel worked. I'd say you're more special than a specialist.
  2. Am I the only one that realizes nothing about what she does in authentic?
  3. I've served on panels with a gentleman from Florida that was forced to retire as a principal after students he hypnotized committed suicide. List like this do not always work. He was warned multiple times to stop doing it by upper administration and was not licensed at all(however that works). He was still allowed to retire with benefits and has been allowed to continue judging winter guard and marching band. This isn't "directly" related but with enough "fame" or money, it's easy to avoid lists like this.
  4. BDPA and USBands Establish Nationwide Pageantry Arts Network Investment in 2020 sets the foundation for year-round participation in the pageantry arts During these uncertain times, the continuation and relevance of scholastic music is more important than ever. BD Performing Arts (BDPA) and USBands have announced a significant investment in the future of the marching arts, through the end of 2020 and beyond, to provide rewarding and fulfilling experiences for talented young people in the activity. The creation of this new nationwide music network is the first step toward serving educators and students year-round while preserving the educational community’s standards, traditions and culture in each region. Through this ground-breaking arrangement, BDPA now adds the management and operation of USBands to its existing roster of scholastic marching arts groups, national educational events, and the Western Band Association. “We’re investing in the pageantry arts today by providing world class services for 2020 and looking ahead to an exciting future of growth and expansion for the activity,” said Shaun Gallant, CEO of BDPA. “We understand the importance of music education in the development of young people, and now more than ever are committed to providing top quality experiences and education for student performers across the country.” USBands will remain under the leadership of Executive Director, Sean King, with Eric Kitchenman and Virginia Kraft serving in the areas of adjudicator and ensemble relations. Members of the BDPA team will provide vital administrative assistance with events and innovative technology solutions, and USBands operations will rely upon an active Advisory Board led by volunteers with decades of experience including Matt Chamberlin, Jon Swengler and Kevin White. Additional members of the USBands Advisory Board will be announced shortly, and will represent educators, academia, adjudicators, parents, and students. Separate Task Forces and Steering Committees for each of the USBands stakeholder groups will be established this fall. "Our vision has been to develop a network for the pageantry arts that creates an environment of excellence and inclusiveness,” said Sean King, Executive Director of USBands. “Building upon three decades of commitment to our participating schools and students, this investment is the realization of that vision having found a like-minded partner in BDPA that also shares in that goal.” USBands will continue to be sponsored by their trusted and loyal partners including the Yamaha Corporation of America, DeMoulin Bros. & Co., Zildjian & Vic Firth, Remo Inc., the BAND Mobile App, FloMarching and PepWear.

  5. Especially caption manager/caption head/caption designer. Some places have ridiculous amounts of staff.
  6. I'm not even thinking about the risk of danger associated with cheerleading. I'm talking about being required to use certain hotels, only being able to compete at their shows(they'll DQ for going to other competitions) being required to wear their uniforms, bows, warm ups etc. This is only the tip of the iceberg. Varsity will not allow corps to host their own shows, produce their own merchandise, etc. Not to mention "scholastic sound sport" is a direct attack on WGI. WGI already offers "winter marching band".
  7. I guess the majority of the people that have been forced to work with varsity are wrong. You can't possibly have read all the terrible things about them and still think it's a good idea.
  8. Accusations were made against two active members of the DCI world, one a percussionist/one a composer(they have many roles, just naming the most familiar). A few comments were made in support of the poster. Neither accuser has responded publicly, of that I am aware.
  9. Is the bright side Drum Corps may still not be back by then?..
  10. Bruh you know how to google. I'm not wasting time in a pointless debate. Keep believing what you want to believe. Hopefully you and any elderly you know aren't affected by it. If they are I'm sure your "it's not a big deal" mentality will help them recover fully.
  11. Well he was essential wrong. Obviously.
  12. This question has been answered numerous times and can simply be found by googling. You're still going to get the same answers.
  13. Innocent people take deals all the time. But again, he isn't innocent.
  14. He has hinted at trying to get back in once he has been "acquitted".
  15. Links won't work unless you are in the group. You can always request to join the group.
