PennsylvaniaDCHOF Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Just got back from Erie a couple of minutes ago. Very nice beginning. 20 something horns, and only about 5-7 members from T'birds, most college age. Full battery with plenty of snares to spare. Same with the pit. It seems the intentions are to use 5 bass, 5 snare and 3 tenors for a total of 13. there were 16 in the battery today. Intentions seem to be to use 9 in the pit, they had about 15 there today. Good to see Gary & Tom Matczak, Joe Salorino, Ed Coleman, Andyroo, Nick, Cheri & Howie, Jim VanTassel, Mike SHUBE, Cheez (hope your leg and hand mend soon so you can show those kids what drumming is all about ). Did I miss anyone? Nice to meet Ken Berlin who did a superb job with the hornline today. I'm sure there with be additions to that really talented hornline as the season approaches. Good luck in the future guys, you're really helping to make Pa. one of the Drum Corps meccas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck in the future guys, you're really helping to make Pa. one of the Drum Corps meccas. I'll certainly agree with Mike on this one; they're off to a terrific start. I had to leave early because my route home was rapidly getting snowed in (that cursed lake effect), and didn't hear any of their ensemble work, but the numbers are there; the talent level is there; and I saw the enthusiasm there.

melligene Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Certainly glad things went so well. Sorry I couldn't be there. The pilot even knocked off 35 minutes of flight time for me (Miami to Picksburg 2 hours 10 minutes vs. 2 hours 45 minutes) but weather in the Steel City not so good. Took extra hour to drive home. I'll make the next one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
