Interested!

[40th Annivesary of the 1977 Oakland Crusaders Winning DCI Top Drums ( Sort Of )]

That was one hell of a line you had. I can tell you that “we” we’re pretty confident “we” were the best line in DCI in ‘76-‘77. 😉

I'll never forget the shocked look on long time Devils' Drum instructor Scott Johnson's face who was on then marching on the Devils Snare Line -- I think they thought we were going to jump them lol

Yeah, the “shock” was due to the on-field congratulations you gave us. For sure a classy move. 👍 I can guarantee you there wasn’t any thought that you may have “jumped us”.

It would have been interesting to see how it would have played out, but we’ll never know.

We had proven time and time again, when the lights came on, night time was our time. 😂

Congrats on a fantastic season!

[Your Corps best staff]

Been awhile since I’ve been here, but no question from the technical to the mental side, our staff from ‘75-‘80 was top notch.

Brass Arranger/Instructor....Wayne Downey, Jim Ott, Jack Meehan, Frank Dorritie

Percussion Arranger/Instructors............Rick Odello, Ron Menke

Marching/Drill Design..........Mel Stratton, Mike Moxley, Steve Beard

Guard................................. Shirley Stratton (Dorritie), Paula Beard

Has it really been 12 years since I wrote this?

Where has the time went?

[1975 Blue Devils]

Coming off the '74 corps successful season, there was an 'aura' that surrounded the entire organization during the winter that something special was going to happen in '75, and it did.

The corps finally defeated SCV early on, which included our drum line which ended SCV'S 58 show WINNING streak.

Personally, the '75 corps will always hold a special place in my heart.

[Most championship rings by a member]

I have 4 as well:

'76, '77, '79, and '80.

Rings were not given out until '79. However, rings are offered for purchase for members for the '76, and '77 seasons.

[Did Neil Peart ever march]

He, Geddy, Alex and untold numbers of fans should march on the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and demand an explanation about why Rush is not yet in the Hall of Fame! I mean, it's great that Blondie, Parliament-Funkadelic, Run-D.M.C. and The Clash, among others, are recognized there for their contributions to rock and roll....but why this trio continues to be excluded is beyond me.

Rant off!

Will be off to Vegas in August to see 'em live.

Moved to proper forum.

[So - LiveWire! Forum....]

George,

Sorry for the late response...........there's been no discussion of dropping 'Livewire' from DCP's lineup. If that changes, then sure, we'll remove the forum.

Thanks,

Rich

Thanks for the suggestion, we'll certainly 'throw it around'.

Well I have to agree with Kushy on this one. To me bored is for people who don't want to live beyond the level of mediocrity.

You're "toeing the line" here, so perhaps you'll want to re-think your stance.

[Current Events Forum Closure Discussion]

Imagine this, a CE thread going off-topic... :)

I would like to ask Rich if there is any chance of this decision being revisited and possibly overturned with new rules/guidleines in place?

I think this thread is good and thought provoking. It's gets to the meat of why so many of us come here. We've all been togehter a long time and for the most part get along like siblings. (that could be the problem)

Is there a chance, Rich?

I'll address that privately......as soon as I have time tonight, or tomorrow.

Thanks.

(interesting that my off-topic response to you was deleted but yours is still here),

Clarification, please.

[Current Events Forum Closure Discussion]

DCP does not run off of the money give by donors. It helps pay, but I'm nearly positive that Rich bought, and pays for this site.

and besides, no one makes you donate.

~>conner

Connor,

John Donovan bought Drum Corps Planet, not me.

Secondly, since John bought ownership, donations from members have not part of the financial equation.

Hope that helps.
