idlethreats Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 A guy in 2007 Bluecoats snare line had a stress fracture in, I think, the right foot the last week or so of tour and could only do run throughs and shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantomws Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 1983-Pnuemonia 1986-broke the big nerve on the outside of my left thigh, didn't hurt cause I couldn't feel anything, but the corps nurse said she heard it snap at the front of the field (I was on the back hash). 24 years later it feels like my leg is asleep all the time.

BigSnareline Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Got my left pinky broken during the drum feature. You know - the snareline's up front - playing on each other's drums - the guy on my left came across at the wrong time and caught my finger between the rim and the head and "snap".. Hurt like an SOB... Played the rest of the season that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluecoats88 Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 I marched a show once with a fever over 100 degrees while with the Bushwackers. Didn't rehearse all day, but marched the show and managed not to collapse at the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecoats88 Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 (edited) A guy in 2007 Bluecoats snare line had a stress fracture in, I think, the right foot the last week or so of tour and could only do run throughs and shows. I don't remember anyone in the 87 line not practicing the last couple weeks of the season. My bad - ignore for my stupidity and lack of comprehensive reading ability.

jbjb85 Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 The only thing I ever missed a drum corps rehearsal (never missed a show, luckily) was for pink-eye. Worst reason ever, right? But at a WGI regional, I marched the finals show on a very very sprained foot. I had sprained it in the prelims show. My foot was a very interesting color right around the arch. Lots of shades of blue, black, and purple. It hurt a lot. And when i was much younger, I once stepped on a nail as my marching band was exiting the field. That didn't feel great either. I didn't break though! I was probably 14 at the time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
