  1. i do need em again, and i did see thet dvd...but i have no idea where the hell it is
  2. I remember HIDA/KIDA starting up in 78 with guards, and drumlines in 1980. drill was minimal and ex judges were on the floor
  3. um Mike mentioned it. and that means, given my schedule and the DCA schedule, it'll be in the back of my car til late July
  4. hey guys...i'm running the corps myspace page now. if you have pix from your days....not party pics, but from shows, warmups etc, send em on over to me and i'll get em up. we have a ton of late 80's/90's stuff as well as recent alumni, but we need 70's/early 80's stuff too
  5. yeah he's usually leading the charge like in 92 when he and Terry Martin pulled the fire alarm the night before finals.....when they came in for the night....at 5 am
  6. not Ream, but he probably came from Reamstown like we did.
  7. even with boosters help, some programs pay out close to a grand per kid to do regionals and finals when you factor in hotel, bus and reg fees.
  8. it is good music for a hornline. 1992 Bushwackers showed that
  9. I think Iron Cross had an 11 one year at DCI East prelims.
  10. indoor percussion here in Central PA started in 1980. I'm surprised it took WGI so long to get going with it. as for DCI, They have enough with the summer...let WGI handle the winter. Plus for corps, doing WGI takes a lot of extra time, cash and resources to do an indoor and outdoor line from the same group.
  11. I'd take heat as opposed to still hearing what three corps ago played rattling around in the rafters
  12. Gochenour. Her hubby Brian...err Gut...was also in Bucs, but knowing him, I can understand why you didn't mention her lousy choice in husbands
  13. I thought it was Latin for "so mothers hide your daughters, and hide your sisters too"
  14. as for snares, there is an indoor snare many units use in the winter. Actually, for indoor percussion, the bigger the venue, the better the sound...it's small gyms where the sound sucks. Agreed about the tenor voice, but with deeper drums being the new trend that can help. I suggest stop going to Domes. In general the sound sucks.
  15. RAmd's battleground reminds me of the Junior forum here whenever there is a rule change or the season is in full swing
  16. I do see your points, and agree with a lot of your logic having taught grounded ensembles where the kids bounced from instrument to instrument. However, honestly, as a former batter player, half of the appeal was being able to be out there as part of line. It takes serious skill to clean a 7-10 person snare line, especially with todays drill. same with a 4-6 person tenor line. sometimes change for the sake of change is not a good thing. and, IMO, percussively, the domed stuff I have seen makes electronics an even bigger mess balance wise
