Caballeros Drum Line to Perform with Keith Urban

The Drum Line of the Hawthorne Caballeros Drum and Bugle Corps from Hawthorne, New Jersey has been selected to perform on stage with Keith Urban.

Keith Urban’s Love, Pain & the whole crazy World Tour is currently traveling around the world and invites local drum lines to perform as part of the show. The Caballeros Drum line will appear with the tour in Wilkes Barre, PA on Tuesday, August 14th, 2007 at the Wachovia Arena and on Wednesday, August 15th, 2007 at the Continental Arena in East Rutherford, NJ.

Gary Gill, Percussion Caption Head for the Caballeros, is very excited to work with Keith Urban and his world class organization. “It is an honor to be chosen to perform with Keith Urban and it is a once in a lifetime experience for our drum line” said Gary. “A chance to be on stage in front of thousands of fans and introduce them to the Caballeros. What an opportunity!”

Mark Arnold, Drum Tech for Keith Urban, stated that "it's a real honor and pleasure to have the Caballero's drum line be a part of our show. Being a drum corps alumni myself, I can certainly appreciate the professionalism and history that they will display in their part. Plus, they will be rock stars for a night!"

Keith Urban's "Love, Pain & the whole World Tour" will feature the songs that have made Keith one of the industry's most respected musicians. The music is sure to be what will highlight another in a line of critically acclaimed Urban concert experiences. In what has been a relatively short period of time Urban has amassed 7 #1 singles, 12 Top 5's and has firmly established himself as an electrifying and prolific talent. He's received accolades and recognition from The Grammy Awards, The American Music Awards (AMAs), The Billboard Music Awards and is the 2005 Country Music Association (CMA) Entertainer of the Year, as well as the CMA and Academy of Country Music (ACM) Male Vocalist of the Year. For more information on specific concert dates and on pre-sale offers go to www.keithurban.net.

The Hawthorne Caballeros, sponsored by American Legion Post #199 in Hawthorne, are in their 61st season of competition and have amassed a remarkable host of records. They have won the DCA World Championship 9 times, the American Legion National Title 16 times, the National Dream Contest 17 times, and the New Jersey State American Legion Title 43 times. They have completed 5 undefeated seasons, consecutively in 1984 and 1985. They have placed in the top 3 placements at the DCA World Championship 30 times in 41 appearances, a clear indicator of the Caballeros consistency for excellence on the drum corps field.

Thanks Mike! So, we have a weekend off. Enough time for us to get the music to two lucky individuals to fill those last two brass spots. And we come back to a full camp weekend - time to get those two lucky individuals into the drill too. We are looking forward to some much needed R&R this weekend... maybe goin fishin, or to the beach, or checking out a local drum corps show. Whatever we are doing, we are looking forward to getting back to Hawthorne on August 4th and 5th for a camp weekend. Roses love hot weather... watch how Carmen - 2007! blooms in the next few weeks.

Carmen - 2007! Drum line with Keith Urban, 61 years of Caballero history, a wonderful membership and staff... This is a great time to find out what the Caballeros are all about. For more info, www.cabs.org.

CABALLERO PRIDE!!

Is it August 3rd yet?

Oh, we have a mid-season break (which I'm not complaining about), but ironically I have a busier schedule on an off weekend away from the corps than I would on a show weekend. Must cram all BBQ's, birthday parties, and 'normal people' stuff in as much as possible. :P :P

I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE AUGUST PUSH!!!
