I checked and yes, they are there again...Perry Park. No, there is no ice currently lol.

7th usually sleeps in a ice rink. I'll have to ask my wife if they are there again this year.

Yeah, when my son started he never marched before, and others that year never played a brass instrument. Do WC organizations teach marching fundamentals, and how to play a brass instrument, even at the lower end of the spectrum?

Nashua, NH

Maybe someone can answer my question about rebroadcasts on Flo... So, do they just start the rebroadcast at a certain time and run it straight through? You can't go back and watch it when you want can you? I'm looking at Finals rebroadcast right now, I guess I can't repeat it again later?

Spartans are the oldest, or at least one of the oldest OC organizations aren't they? I could be wrong, but I had the gut feeling that OC is where they want their program to reside. That being said, I think they are incredibly strong as regards to their financial and institutional health, and have been well established in that state for a long time. I think they actually would be the most ready to make that jump, but I didn't really think it was what they wanted to do. Just my gut feel from their Corps announcements, no inside track.

I’ll share my LOS pretzel story again from 2019. I was waiting for the age-out ceremony to start and was starving. So I went to the nearby kiosk just to get a hot pretzel. After a few minutes the lady handed me one and said it’s free. I asked her “Really?”. She said “Yes, because it’s not very good. It’s been around.” It was cold and I swear the thing was like food that got left under the couch, and found a month later. I went back to her and I said, “I appreciate that it’s free, but I don’t really want to eat this. Could I just have a fresh hot pretzel? I’ll pay for it.” She rolled her eyes at me like (try to do someone a favor).

Speaking of LOS, you will really enjoy your food at the kiosks this week. They have upped the ante, and gained some serious prestige in the gourmet world. I expect they are on track to win 5 Michelin Stars.

I think they have 26 then...26 corps that is.

They used to use Brass horns specifically to match their name.

Kinda bummed. I heard 7th won't be at full retreat due to some covid stuff. Just the DM.

I know, I was teasing. 😉 No, that was one of the design team. I don't think my wife said an actual word, just whooping lol.

Cook... lol 😆

We're very mari-timey in New London.

I get to hear my wife hollering on the TV again.

I think a translation was something like "Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelt of elderberry"

I know at least one Les Stentors Color Guard alumnus in BAC this year.

Thankfully it was an away football game halftime and not a competition. 🤣

Woah, I just had a high school flashback lol. I was in a saxophone quintet feature up front during a show. But I missed practice due to sickness, and they forgot to tell me it was cut. So I ran up to the 50 yard line, realized I was alone, faked a solo, then went back to my hole. It was one of my most embarrassing moments. 😳 Afterwards when the director stopped laughing, he apologized that no one said anything. 🤣

I'm thinking the truck with the horns might be gone before they got over their surprise and could chase it down. They might have to use kazoos. 😄

Marion Accuweather indicates the evening is going to be just fine for everything. Best of luck to Gold for a medal. However it pans out, they set a new record and have a fantastic show.

Aha! I was right all along! 😲 Everyone making fun of me because I thought it was a real person's name. Now who's the smart one? 😄

This should be interesting, medal contention is pretty tight. Hope the weather cooperates.

They are affiliated with the Calgary Stampede Rodeo.

Wow those last four shows! What a treat.
