  1. It'd be really interesting to see the rate of inflation. For comparision, this year to march I am paying about $1500 for dues and food, $40 dollars a camp for 7 months ($280), uniform parts for $85, and find 20 sponsors for a car wash or donate $170. So assuming I find 20 sponsors for a car wash so I don't have to donate the extra 170, that's $1865. Start adding driving costs and summer spending money and it's easy to look around the $2500 mark for the season. Anyways, I don't know how to figure out inflation, anyone able to help?
  2. Diddo. I heard there is going to be one or two next year though.
  3. Schlike Helleberg A Helleberg required, but I guess it can be any kind. Personally, I like the Schlike.
  4. I'm marching Contra with Colts this year and so far I can say Contra is easier to hold then Euph or Bari. Only two things are roughin the beginning: Keeping your left hand on the higher tubing instead of letting it slip down to the lower stuff and standing at attention.
  5. Yamaha YAS052 Alto Sax Yamaha YTS062 Custom Tenor Sax Yamaha YSS052 Soprano Sax Yamaha Euphonium Yamaha Trombone
  6. Yes, this feature is great to have. A lot of corps close-up shots line up nicely, but if they don't the high cam is great!
  7. Nothing wrong with trying out for different corps, every corps is unique!
  8. Pioneer has recently been buying new G bugles section by section in the past 3 years, so I'll bet they'll be G for a very long time.
  9. I totally agree. I saw that show live many times in 2000. I cried atleast half a dozen times during the ballad. We played in in MBI this year and once again it brought back tons of emotions.
  10. Anyone else notice a delay between the sound and the picture on the DVD? I just have been watching the individual performance DVD of MBI and noticed there is a significant delay. Just curious if anyone else noticed this.
  11. Hey, GREAT review. I agree with mostly everything you said.
  12. I wish there was a way for us Americans to see/hear some of the European corps; I'm really curious to see how Europe does drum corps.
