    ... "conceptual aural vision"... ?

    ... hard to make me speechless...

    ... I've got nothin'...

    A year later, it's still stuck in my head... "electronics, new sonics, keytar in hand..."

    After 20 years, finally found my personal holy grail of obscure sheet music today.

    After browsing YouTube, Crown's 2010 drumline may be the most chronicled DCI line ever, in sheer number of videos.

      I am not a kiddie.

    Already seeing the effect of DCI's missing archives on eBay prices...

  9. MikeN

    An episode of the Tudors featured Terpsichore, which Crown played in '97. It's not often you get reminded of drum corps by 16th century English politics.

    As a public service announcement, DCI is now sold out of 1994 DVDs too, joining 1998, 1996 and 1990

    Aw, man, I got minused on a post. ... Medic!...

      Well if you'd just quit cussing everybody else out :-P

    Been buying the Carolina Crown studio recording, one song at a time. 3/5 of the way done now. I wish they hadn't pulled their older ones; I'd like those too.

    Been tapping out the Frameworks/Rhythm valve-tapping melody on my computer keyboard (1-&-4-&-3-4) all day...

      Love that show.

      I found myself humming/tapping that rhythm all day yesterday, too.

    Beginning to believe the statistic that most musicians have a mental illness.

      I read an article recently that suggested all forms of creativity is a form of mental illness.

    Being an Arsenal (soccer) fan is like being a Cadets fan. They both have unconventional strategies that many folks don't agree with, and they keep getting reminded they haven't won anything since 2005...

      I can definitely see the Wenger/Hopkins comparison.

  16. MikeN

    Blue Stars completely blew me away - the last thing I expected to ever say about them.

  17. MikeN

    Can now play the Cavaliers 2002 closer on snare. Kind of a specialized party trick, as party tricks go, I know...

  18. MikeN

    Can't wait for San Antonio tomorrow! Look for me - I'll be the one cheering.

  19. MikeN

    Chase fatigue, indeed.

  20. MikeN

    Crown surprised me in a good way - 2nd is awesome! Blue Stars surprised me too - what happened?

  21. MikeN

    Crown's 2014 standstill recording is now available for sale! It's a good day. www.thecrownstore.com

      Did Crown have to pull the recording? It's no longer available on the store... :(

    DCI Fan Network is 3 years older than the iPhone. And still doesn't have a working mobile-friendly site, much less an app.

    1. Jeff Ream

      and I'm sure it won't given the costs DCI would have to put out and the issues within the BOD about money

  23. MikeN

    DCI Fan Network's "hard" expiration dates are dumb. Let's just penalize customers for not subscribing in June? I would think they would want money all year, not just one month.

      Maybe, but what's worse? If you had a rolling monthly cost, people would sign up and out 3 months out of 12. If you had a 365 sub, you'd have mass chaos on Finals night every year. It seems like a dumb decision, but with a seasonal activity, it's the least-dumb choice.

    DCP turns 10 on 2/14/12. Where have the years gone?

    1. hostrauser

      hostrauser

      Ten? That will make DCP more mature than half of its users! *ba-dup-ching!*

      DId you hear the one about the drum kit that fell off a cliff.... ba dum tish!

      Only ten? For some reason (I have no idea), I thought it had been around longer than that. Anyway, Happy Birthday, DCP!!!
