to me it seems that the only difference is people are calling them by ans instument name instead of by voice part. Its the same thing as calling a mellophone mello rather than alto. Its all stupid semantics get over it.

G = better because drumcorps fans generally have preconcived notions they refuse to let go and be introduced to something new. I noticed thi when i went to see blast II with some corps freinds. I was the only person to have ever played a woodwind and the only one who could get over the woodwind in blastII. woodwinds = bad, but harmonica citar and piano are acceptable alternative instrumentation. they just refused to get over theri preconcived notions of what corps is and blast arising from star, they insited it should be corps, could not accept that it wasnt. Just get over all your hangups on what corps is supposed to be and have an open mind. Its not that G or Bb is superior but just gettin over your unwavering definition of what corps is supposed to be. cavie and BD and SCV are still corps and they play Bb! Don't Tradition and define Drum corps into extinction.

whoops how did i end up posting this here. MY BAD!

They may not be my favorite but i think cadets could do a good show with Annie Get Your Gun. "Any Thing You Can Do, I Can Do Better" would be a great chart for one of their relaxed "party" scenes. And some how they make teh Hokey thing work for them.

my bet is the existing ii/iii corps who already have g bugle wont switch anytime soon, because they dont have the funds larger corps do. New dii corps will prolly be Bb from the start but to but an entire new hornline may take a few yaers of saving for some of the existing ones.

heck thats what eyes are for! look at the drum major for time, wow it actually works. i dunno maybe drummers are blind or something but DUT sux! STOP IT!
