Also...several of the corps have off today and stay down in Wildwood to enjoy their last free day till September! (oh and BTW it's Fathers Day so some are probably doing that)

Here is my issue with the 35 minimum rule.... And I am speaking as myself not for my corps... DCA wants to evaluate corps before April 1st. During that time in certain parts of the country (Especially the South) tons of people are involved in WGI. That means that numbers are lacking in Guard and Drumline until...... May(being that WGI Percussion is so late this year) So a Corps could have a hornline of 26 people and still fail their evaluation due to missing the number. Do I personally think someone should field a corps of less than 35 people ... Probably not...But I think someone needs to take a look at the evaluation rules and dates for for the future! Again Not speaking for my corps... but I'm sure you can all read between the lines a little!!

Solaris is not being evaluated... Yet we will continue this summer and perform at a few shows.

Yes , Much of the Staff, Admin and Members of Solaris were former members of Sun Devils. Before you all ask why... The short story has to do with a rift between Admin/Staff and the former board of directors. That's all I'll say on that. We have our next Brass camp on Feb 18th. We are hoping to compete in class A this year as long as we can get approval from DCA.

If I were starting a corps in NOrthern VA... I would totally call it... NOVA or SuperNOVA or some play on that.....

One of the main reasons is that NY schools are in session until the end of June. Thats already 2 weeks into the season. So, no high school kids and no schools to rehearse at till almost July.

http://www.solarisdrumcorps.org/ (please pardon our dust we are still in the launching stage of our website.) Founders are some very familiar names in the Florida drum corps scene over the last few years. Most notably John "JJ'Johnson. Have a Look.... http://www.solarisdrumcorps.org/meet-the-staff.html

That Riley Guy!!!! Bet you are glad to have him back!

Cough... Cough... this is the DCA group... DCI Can't hear you in here!!!

Can't wait for TBT to get a real head to head score this weekend!

Would Love to see them Raise the number to 26 and have the last 4 spots required to be guard. so 22 musicians and 4 guard.

The Rocketeers Seem Like the shortest commute for you... But with that being said. I'm not 100% sure. But for the right person with the right chops there might be a tenor spot at Tampa Bay Thunder.. Contact efox@tampabaythunder.org if you are interested.

The Drums are Beautiful!!!!! Can't wait to see them on the field!!!
