I think Crown and Coats got ripped off
greg_orangecounty replied to George Dixon's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I asked the mod to nuke it and, thankfully, he or she did. It was embarrassing. -

greg_orangecounty replied to George Dixon's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I think the judges got it right from what I saw. But its soooooo subjective now and I see how people can disagree. greg_orangecounty -
Although it may be hard to tell today Drum Corps emanated from the military, not Broadway. As such, our attitudes and manners reflected it. If someone tried to break our rank we told them not to and the vast majority respected. Those that didn’t regretted their choice especially if they did it to our rifle line. It didn’t make us “tough”, “bad-azz”, or anything like that. It’s just who we were. If it’s no longer a “thing” in 2019, I get it. No judgment from me as I admire and respect the current marching members and their talent. greg_orangecounty

Alumni Corps "How To" Questions
greg_orangecounty replied to jonnyboy's topic in Alumni Corps Discussions
The Anaheim Kingsmen Alumni Corps (2007) accepted non-alumni. We had several BD, SCV, and Freelancer alumni. We all paid for our own uniforms, instruments, and probably some membership fee but I don't remember. It was a LOT of work, but an unforgettable experience I'll remember the rest of my life. The only thing I would advise is to have a few key members set the ground rules and see if enough people want to participate to make it worth it. You're never going to please everyone. -
Blue Devils 2020

If the BD’s take requests I’d love to see a reboot of their 1976 show incorporating all of the current/modern elements of drum corps. -
Should my 14 year-old march
greg_orangecounty replied to cage's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
i think 14 is a bit too young. 16 would be much better in my humble opinion. -

2019 Madison Scouts!
greg_orangecounty replied to Prsmpower4's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I joined this website this week and haven't followed Drum Corps very closely in decades. Not sure how I'm supposed to know what's up with a corps I never marched in, but admired. -
2019 Madison Scouts!
greg_orangecounty replied to Prsmpower4's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I started on the last page (174) hoping to get an update, or insider information, on how Madison is doing this year. Always liked and respected their organization. How many pages back do I need to go to actually find out? -
New Members

I’m new here. Anaheim Kingsmen (DCI’s first winner) alumni. Although the activity looks different than what I’m used to, I’m happy to see Drum Corps is still going strong. -
