  1. I think you might need to check that stats as to whether DCA is growing. Aren't several corps inactive? You cannot count them. DCA and DCI are both holding there own. That is the only true fact that can be stated here.

    Amps/ electronics will come to DCA because all of the instructors and arrangers like amps/ electronics for what they can add to the production. Listen to the miked pit. It is a hundred times better and truly adds to the sound. You can say that the DCA instructors would not agree to amps/ electronics, but the old guard won't be there forever and as the younger guys/gals replace them they will want to use them. It may be several years, but DCA will have amps and synthesizers. It is inevitable.

    "LIKE" ala Facebook

    Amps will make it to DCA.

  2. i love your pashion. look i will explain this one more time. this is my opinion. i have a right to my opinion. i'm not bashing and am not jeolous. i hung with the cabs back in the day. i knew micky petrone, jim costello, george tuthill and jack pratt. i loved those guys. i just personally am tired of latin music. i've heard it for44 years. actually it's not the music it's the same tunes i keep hearing . that's all it is. try and understand this. it's my opinion and i have a right to that. this is a free country and it allows me that right. john and i have discussions about things on dcp and we don't get personal. he has his opinion and i have mine. i see that we both respect each others views. now why is it that you can't?? just agree to dis agree and leave it at that. and good luck with your season.

    Thank you, you have a very nice drum corps.

    Hawthorne Forever. Go get em Cabs. You know who you are and you know what you need to do. You have our support. Just do me a favor and blow the house down. Bring the brass trophy back to Hawthorne.

  3. The Cabs have won DCA's playing Maleguena 3 times in the past if I am not mistaken - 84 85 and 95.

    Spanish Fantasy was used in 2 of the most talked about years in Caballero history- 95 and 96.

    Spain was used in another one of Hawthorne's most talented hornlines and fan favorite corps- 2006.

    My Spanish Heart was a beautiful song used in 3rd place finish year - 97.

    Great choices. Your gonna have a lot of fun. Enjoy it! Can't wait to see you in Clifton.

  4. Quite a few people once told me between 10 and 12 years ago when I was with another team, that I would never regret my decision to be a Caballero.

    I dismissed it, as I was loyal to that other team at the time.

    I have thanked those people again, and again. And want to thank them again.

    The people that came into my life more than 10 years ago:

    Timmy Campbell, Frank Ponzo, Sean Glennon, Fran Alise (MacIntyre), Rose Cataneo, and Chris Mignemi.

    The people that made me feel welcome and helped me make the decision to stay with the corps March 15-16, 2003:

    Josh Katz (my Partner of Peeling Paint), Matt Dodd, Mike Durburow, Chris Fontanelle, Mark Spinney and Sean Glennon (Pain and Panic -- I love you like brothers and want to beat you like red headed step children! You are both amazing and great friends), Mike Longdo, Gary Gill, Louie Stork (thanks for the drink Louie!), John and Rob Gerdes, (for helping me truly understand what it means to don kickpleats and proving to you both that I wasn't "trouble"), Bobby Delaney, Brian Grilk.

    God, the list goes on. But these people made it EASY to become a Caballero for my first year.

    To really "get it", spend more than 3 years with my beloved Caballeros, and you will NEVER want to leave.

    CABALLERO PRIDE!

    Aw Laura that was so sweet (and mean at the same time, lol). You ARE Hawthorne! Have a great season!
