SoloSop420 Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 This bus better have the built in taps for the kegs!!! Gotta remember Spam, we're an All-Age Corps now. The idea is to have the lower lever for members under the age of 21. (we'll call that the "Kiddie-Bus.") The upper-level, however, will be afforded to all members of legal age. (we'll call that the "Animal-Bus.").............just like the old days. The Animal-Bus will have all the accoutrements that all members 21 & over need to get ready for our performance and the after-show party. Have Kegs will travel......Spa....bar....practice room, an area for Basic-Block, ect...ect... However, there will be NO URINATING OUT THE WINDOW WHEN THE BUS IS IN MOTION!!!!!..............(Spam!) How's that? Gonna go practice now. Nick I play Soprano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Matczak Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 Lake Erie Thunder Drum & Bugle Corps hires Roy Mitchell as Brass Arranger. Chartmeiaster Music Publishing For over 25 years Roy has been working hand in hand with music educators to conceive compositions and arrangements that are not only fresh and exciting, but also a challenge for students. He believes that the unneeded “watering down” of the music only undermines the music education process. The arrangements and compositions of W. Roy Mitchell are played regularly by The Baltimore Ravens, University of New Mexico, Idaho State University, Messiah College, The University of North Texas, Oklahoma State University, as well as dozens of other colleges, high schools, and professional groups across the United States. His arrangements for beginning jazz ensemble have been featured in master classes and music conferences in Nova Scotia and Australia, as well as the U.S., as a primary tool in developing an early understanding of jazz and improvisation. Roy attended Duquesne University as a Jazz Performance major. There he studied arranging and jazz piano with John Wilson and Bobby Cardillo, respectively. Continuing his musical education, he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Jazz Studies from Indiana University of Pennsylvania. As an undergraduate, Roy arranged for most university ensembles and composed original works for fellow students’ recitals. During his stay at IUP his work caught the attention of high school and college band directors. Thus began his arranging career. Today Roy’s arrangements can be heard worldwide.
