What do you mean "ghost" of Carmine?

This is the only clip I could find of Carmine Appice on that broadcast.

Steve Rondinaro looked so uncomfortable during that broadcast.

For reference, SCV did Fiddler in '92. In addition, IIRC didn't the judges have issues with their show for some of the retro stuff (they had the guard come out in their traditional uniforms/boots during the Bottle Dance)? I think they spent a good part of the season with rewrites including inserting a new ballad. Chava Ballet replaced Sunrise Sunset. Here's '92 Vanguard early season. https://youtu.be/sVamazJ_KnM

Do you have a stand up comedy routine one can attend? It must be even funnier than some of the stuff you post here.

He has a lot of experience managing businesses. I would think that would be quite an asset when running a not-for-profit where every penny counts. After all, Phantom's had financial issues it's long history. We wouldn't want to return to those dark days would we.

Speaking of Yamaha......don't try to hide in their instrument cases anymore. https://www.autoblog.com/2020/01/14/yamaha-warns-against-climbing-instrument-cases/

LOL!

....I'm so naive.

Saw a story on the news where the discussion focused on some hip restaurants trying to discourage the elderly and people with grey hair from returning because it was not good for the image.

I played the recorder in grade 6 but never got the volume this guy gets. Maybe it was because I never had electronics to help me.

Blue Devils present "Constantly Risking Absurdity - Part Dos"

Please excuse the very human reactions of an activity that has for years contributed to people's emotions - almost always in a positive way.

The patient is already brain dead.

To be honest, I feel like I'm watching a funeral.

What is similar between the groups? Talent.

International?

Here's what I thought about Sousaphones in DCI. Check out his other videos to see how I feel about woodwinds in DCI. The bassoon in the wood chipper is a good example.

Sounds phinicky.

uh......nope.

I don't remember Cadets props being the subject of a lot of controversy here last year. I think other things were criticized but the props, not so much.

10 Tesla Cybertrucks spread around the field for the horn/drum line to stand on. I think they would make amazing props - all those angles. Kind of like Bluecoats 2014 except there are truck parts in the middle - and very large wheels to help with getting them on/off the field. By the way, did Tesla copy Bluecoats props from 2014?

Rocketman I apologize for the assumption. When you speak of "funding to support the current trend of the activity" are you specifically referring to the cost of props as a requirement to remain competitive and advance in the rankings?

I am looking at this from the perspective that for the last few years the possibility of being outside of the top 12 was real. I am hopeful that this year the season can progress without thinking about that. That makes me excited. I want the corps to be on a stable footing from a staff perspective first - stop the revolving door. One thing Hall mentions in the interview is that many of the staff have worked together before. The staff breaking in period will be shorter as a result.
