Excelsior PR Manager Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 DRUM CORPS DEAD IN ALBANY....NOT EVEN CLOSE! Anyone who attented the Clifton, NJ DCA show Saturday evening will attest that Excelsior drum and bugle corps from the capital region of New York (to incorporate Albany), as well as Pittsfield, MA...is doing well. the corps put on an exhibition at the show and the response was great! Lots of happy folks! Lots of great and exciting things happening with this group. New equipment, Brand new uniforms from FJM designed by Michael Cesario!, great staff and a fun group of folks! Check it out! www.excelsiordrumcorps.org And yes, co-sponsors of the "keeping the memories" Alumni drum corps show in Glens Falls, NY August 4th! We support all drum corps activities in the area...but drum corps is far from dead in Albany! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't want to have to account for another two years of my life, Art! :) Congrats on a successful Clifton show, X! Best of luck in the rest of the 2007 season!

27thAvantCadets Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 (edited) Yeah, Greg...things are going well. So well we had to purchase two additional sets of quints! That gave us four, and as soon as they arrived, another quint player showed up! He was quickly convinced to play snare! He luckily has a great traditional grip too! unfortunately with late season arrivals, it takes so long to get them up to speed. I hope these drummers are ready for the Aug 4th show in Glens Falls. The line at rehearsals is pretty big and they are mostly young players. Thats good for next year though! What did Bill Murray say in "What about Bob?" Baby steps! Wahoo!

The minute Fusion Core walked in the Aquatic Center of George Mason University (our lodging for Saturday night's VA show) we were welcomed by not only the entire Crusader organization, but Joe, himself. He invited the snares to a sauna sectional (everyone was clothed!). We took him up on it and had a blast! Great group of young people and very talented!! Look for great things from Cru with this bunch! Peace out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
