Florida Brass


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I was just killing some time at work so I decided to look at some of the other DCP forums.WOW! I am quite impressed with the passion expressed about the new rules changes. The thing is, the world is all about change.Some good,some bad. The only thing we can do is-----deal with it.

This brings me to my point.Yesterday I attended my 2nd Florida Brass rehearsal and had a ball.My chops are still pretty bad, my reading is rusty and I think I forgot how to mark time.Oh well.I met some more great folks. Even met some folks from some of the CT corps I .competed against back in JR. and SR. days. I really want to thank the Florida Brass organization for this outlet to "re-live" the good old days of Drum Corps and the fellowship it provides. I am looking forward to the upcoming performances.I just hope that my memory starts to improve so I can actually play and not fake it(I've done that before too).

To all drum corps folks out there. Your memories are important, so remember the way things were, but accept change, it is inevitable.

I'm with this guy!

Sure, we'll continue to have these "discussions" about what was and what ought to be. And some of us will continue to disagree. No harm in it.

But, let's all try and remember to HAVE SOME FUN!!!!!

The growth of DCA Mini-Corps, Brass Ensembles, Alumni Corps, and MCA is the real success story in this activity.

DCI is what it is: The highest level of marching music education. Let them do what they want.

But Brass playing is alive and well in this country.
