  1. I am not sure how to address your incredulity that corps fees are $2000. But I am curious, how many WC corps have fees less than $3000? How many have fees more than $4000? $5000? Now you can be incredulous.
  2. I totally get it, too. Like I said, camel noses and tents.
  3. V/R was weird. Pressure against my embrasure kept changing.
  4. Yes, Bloo was in favor of adding woodwinds. Now it is no secret I am opposed to WWs, but to be fair, Bloo only wanted WWs as soloists or small ensembles, and they wanted to pull them from the brass section—not as stand alone WW players and Bloo really didn’t want to add another bus to accommodate another 50 members. Now, I know ... camel noses and tents and all that, but what Bloo was even more interested in, was the live sampling proposal that did indeed pass... so all in all, a win as far as Bloo is concerned. And that’s the tea, as far as I know.
  5. I I popped open a bottle of Pino Grigio to celebrate! 🍷
  6. Just musing here: Given the construction and nature of flutes ... what’s the point of them popping to the press box?
  7. It’s really happening. Good thing I know how to make a proper Old Fashioned.
  8. Well, they live streamed maybe 13 shows in 2019 and Rocket Mortgage ads 6. 😂
  9. I didn’t know that either, but I remember there were a couple of late season shows that Bloo brought the tenors close together, but that experiment didn’t last long.
  10. I muddle an orange slice, a Luxardo cherry, Fee’s Barrel Aged Bitters, and simple syrup. I do like a nice Canadian Club Old Fashioned, but I usually make mine with Maker’s Mark.
  11. Does anyone else find it ironic that A&E has become a justification to allow more acoustic Instruments? (“Since we can make the woodwind sound with a synth, why not have the real thing on the field? ... so we can amplify it!”)
  12. I think there are quite a few of us wondering if towel tossing time is upon us.
  13. To be fair, they had in-ear monitors to hear each other.
  14. Actually, I would go with Mambo, but that’s me.
  15. Time to load up some 1974 Kilties! Right Jim Schehr? 🥳
  16. I thought the reference to history was valid. As I recall, BAC’s legal issue with using the moniker “Boston Crusaders” had to do with bankruptcy ... but I may be wrong. But yeah, BAC was quite small back then and they have bounced back with a vengeance despite great odds.
