masterfitter Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 My personal pet peeve about early season drum corps is those corps that, for whatever reason, don't have their show flags ready. I mean, honestly, do they also show up with practice horns and practice percussion? I know it takes time and $$ (and lots of decisions by design staff) to get flags into production, either by volunteers or a paid company, but still...are we really supposed to go nuts when 'show flags' show up and actually give these groups more points for FINALLY not performing with their practice flags? Seems it should be the opposite, lower scores for not being 'ready'. Just my 2 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoothy Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 (edited) Thanks for the review. Not sure what this "soprano" thing is. Is that an opera singer or a gangster? Just kidding, traditionalists. Drum corps is still fun! Edited June 24, 2008 by Smoothy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdCadet07 Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 Well, they're dumb. It's art! It's just like that crazy ##### Rosie refusing to have Blast on her show because of the use of rifles and sabers. Dumb, dumb, dumb. I remember this.. but I didn't know it was about Blast... hmm interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gellio Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I remember this.. but I didn't know it was about Blast... hmm interesting Yes, Rosie is a big fan of Broadway and always had shows come on her show to perform - in order to help promote Broadway. She refused Blast because of the use of rifles and sabres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scout Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Yes, Rosie is a big fan of Broadway and always had shows come on her show to perform - in order to help promote Broadway. She refused Blast because of the use of rifles and sabres. I thought it was because of the union thing. I have friends involved with Broadway shows that were ###### at Blast because of that. I thought that was the reason she didn't have it on her show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mayer Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Yep. We were told the $15 tickets were sold out so we sat on the backside bleachers for $5. It kind of sucked, but hey, any night watching drum corps is awesome. I wish I could have heard the PR Buicks full blast! (By the way, in the picture of the Governaires, I could see me and my son in the stands!) You can change that to "on the field" instead of "in the stands" Govies 09 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
