phoenix_aurora Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I'm really starting to get pumped about the alumni performance at the Rochester show! Saturday's rehearsal with the alumni was really a special, special thing, and to think it was only a rehearsal! Seeing old friends I've marched with and meeting alumni from pre2000s was really amazing. Hearing the stories, and reflecting on Statesmen past, and seeing some great people/players poping back from no where was inspiring. I saw ALOT of people that I really miss this weekend, and getting to perform with them again should be a BLAST! My section recently did a neat thing: After rehearsal we all met at one of our player's houses and watched the tapes of each of our "rookie" years, and some of the championship years too. It was in our hopes to show the new members what a huge and amaizng expirience this activity can be. It got our section talking alot about the corps' history, too!

LakeShoremen Brass Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 The Empire Statesmen are planning a big blow out over the 4th of July Weekend in Rochester. 1st we will start with the 4th of July Parade and enjoy the company of many many of our Alumni. All are welcome to jump back in line for the big parade. Then we are planning a special Alumni evening (more info will be announced privately) and then the big day will come!!SATURDAY, JULY 5, 2008 / THE VINCE BRUNI PREVIEW OF CHAMPIONS Growney Stadium / St. John Fisher College, Rochester, NY Gates open at 6pm / SHOW TIME 7PM $18.00 Reserved Seating $15.00 General Seating Call the Statesmen office at 585-266-2232 for tickets. More info is also available on our web site at http://www.statesmen.org The show will open with our very own Empire Cadets and then after 25 years in the making we will end with the 25th Anniversary Empire Statesmen All-Star Alumni Corps! This is something you don't want to miss. Just wanted to say that I thought the Alumni did a great job at rehearsal. There wasn't much time for current members to chat with Alumni but I had a chance to at least say hello to a few. Can't wait to see how many Alumni will be able to make it the 4th of July weekend! Even if you don't want to pick up an instrument you should attend and come down to the field and stand with us. It is going to be great!
