Who do you think was the Greatest Corps Director and WHY?

Why don't drum corps play jazz anymore?
KeithHall replied to jeterbeater's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I had a t-shirt Blue Devils sold in the 80's Jazz....Music of the 80's! So Jazz was only good in the 1980's says BD LOL -
Favorite 1970's - 1980's NON DCI Top 12 Corps!
KeithHall replied to KeithHall's topic in Historical Junior Corps Discussions
Like to add..... Charioteers...although small, they held their own back in the early DCI days. Precisionaires.... OSAGE!!! Geneseo Knights Pembroke Imperials St. Francis Sancians Beverly Cardinals Polish Falcon Cadets Blue Rock Toronto Optimists....Yes Seneca made top 12 but I'm talking the original Marquis Argonauts Greece Cadets -
Saves on travel but the excitement of a live competition is gone.

MAYBE (and I'm not sure it was an ego thing. DCI starts up and we lose how many corps? I know St. Joe's of Batavia folded and probably because most of the members aged out (my guess). What about others?

So V !ERY true!!!! I do 2 jobs at once now. When I was home teaching from March to May, I taught theory and history because we didn't have the technology to do Virtual Choir which takes a lot more time to put together besides class time

I am 60, been teaching for 21 years. I am not depressed but seem to be stressed! I can't do a concert so I have to video a concert. The kids are not learning as quickly, we can't do a live Music Performance Assessment. So we just learn sight reading, some theory and sing as much as possible. It's not going to school anymore....it's going to work! Teaching face to face and also distance learning. It sucks! I hate it!!! Nothing I can do but my best!!!

This post is going nowhere LOL

Bridgemen 1976 was a gutsy move to go from traditional uni's to their hip banana coats and wide brim hats. Also the style of show was so very different than any one ever saw. Add Velvet Knights with their "Cool" look and shows.

Rochester Patriots did 6 sets one year in the 1980's. I think during St. Louis Blues March

St. Joe's wasn't involved in DCI as the folded after the 1971 season. -
How will All-Age Drum Corps recover from COVID?
KeithHall replied to downtown's topic in DCA - All-Age Corps Discussions
In an effort to not jab, here's my thought..... Drum corps as a whole is in a "not so good" place! With some not so nice news stories the past few years and the canceling of 2020 (and probably 2021) I don't think that many corps can sustain. Kids today find other avenues and if drum corps isn't available to them, they will find other things. Maybe finding a job (if possible). The whole concept of drum corps is to rehearse and learn a show in the winter months to take on tour to compete against other corps and end up at DCI Championships (run on sentence but you get it rig -

KeithHall replied to downtown's topic in DCA - All-Age Corps Discussions
Can corps continue to fundraise when there is no marching season again? If a corps was using Bingo that is done. How can any corps sustain?
