And what would that do to touring schedules? The corps drive up from Winston-Salem to Allentown, and then right back to Nashville? Folks in Pittsburgh and Ohio lose their shows?

Can’t wait!

When i lost my home to a tornado in 2020, it was uninhabitable for 364 days. A couple of Other homes in the area were damaged, not to the same extent as mine, and they were out between 3 and 6 months. I can only imagine how long it will take to rebuild whole towns down where you are! At least you are safe and should be home soon.

So very sorry to hear this, Jim. Holding you, your sister, and your family in my thoughts.

Blue Devils B Returns to Roots in '23! 2022-09-29 BD Performing Arts announces today that in 2023, Blue Devils B will be returning to their roots as a community-based program, with an eye on the future. “Looking at our history, Blue Devils B began as a community ensemble with members primarily living in close proximity to Concord,” says John Meehan, Director of Community Arts Programs for BDPA. “Over time, the program has grown immensely, in so many positive ways, drawing members from all over California and many states across the country. In 2023, we look to affirm our mission, growing BDB as a prominent program within our local community. Look for amazing things in 2023, and beyond!” Stay tuned for staff, show, and season schedule information to be released on October 18! Any questions? Please send an e-mail to bdbadmin@bluedevils.org.

A completely out there idea? Color paper has been #### near impossible to source for over a year now, due to supply issues. MAYBE color dye was hard to source for textiles as well?

Just an appreciation post. While the rest of DCP discusses staff changes and necessary improvements, it is always nice that BD just keeps rolling along!

FWIW, i commented on the post regarding behaviors of misogynists, but never thought you were directing the comment at a poster. Wasn’t exactly sure WHY you posted it, but this explanation makes sense!

I think those under 50 are still impressed by the cleanliness and unison of the movements. They maybe just don’t appreciate the difficulty.

Sorry, but many (most?) true misogynists knowingly treat women differently and knowingly try to make women feel miserable. That is all part of the misogynist’s playbook. Anything that makes them feel superior to women, or a particular woman, is fair play for them.

I believe you ate correct. Along with Wills and Kate being Prince and Prince if Wales, they also took titles as the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall, as well as titles in Scotland.

It was only months before Charlotte was born. Queens, before then, were the heirs to a throne with no male children. And Elizabeth only became Queen because her uncle abdicated his crown, and it passed to Elizabeth’s father. She was never expected to rule when she was born.

Funeral is monday the 19th. Not this monday.

primogeniture was done away with shortly before the birth of Charlotte, who is now 3rd in line, behind George, but ahead of Louis.

I believe it is because Harry’s kids have now been elevated from great-grandchildren of the last monarch to grandchildren of the new monarch. Williams’ children were greats, also, but also children of the future king, so they are treated differently.

I hadn’t heard that about Mr. Boo. Maybe that’s why drum corps hooked me! 💙👿

I know that. I was answering the poster who couldn’t remember what they were called. You are also correct that when they went away, there became required elements, but compulsories were actually replaced by the short programs. sorry about the diversion to figure skating…

Compulsaries

By this, do you mean that being too might mean the drill is too easy?

They absolutely could be dreams. I thought that at times, too. And I didn’t mean anything snarky by quoting the line, except sometimes a cigar is just a cigar?

“The blue and the dim and the dark cloths of night”? they made more sense to me than the pillowcase people in Metamorph, during Flight of the Bumblebee!

BAC has long been my second favorite corps. I think BD/BAC is going to be a lot like Federer/Nadal for many years!

We are all pulling for him!
