Once and for all...

[BRASSO]

I love drumcorp.

Especially the Blue Coats and Crossman.

Hey, what does BAC stand for?

Glassman is another.

Glassman is another.

As an alumnus, I cringe every time I see on these boards all of the variations on

Blue Raiders

Bleu Raiders

Blue Readers

Etc.

For the record: Bleu Raeders

You know, I wish everyone would spell "corps" right (and I think I dislike " corps' " for plural even more than "corp" for singular), but I respect that that vast, vast majority of posters on this board use proper English rather than text speak, use grammar, etc. And that even though there are disagreements, and biases, and homerism, things generally don't get too out of hand. Thanks to the mods for keeping this a fun place to waste time.

I have a spelling chequer

It came with my pee see

It plane lee marks four my revue

Miss steaks aye can knot sea.

Eye ran this poem threw it,

Your sure reel glad two no.

Its vary polished in it's weigh.

My checker tolled me sew.

A checker is a bless sing,

It freeze yew lodes of thyme.

It helps me right awl stiles two reed,

And aides me when eye rime.

Each frays come posed up on my screen

Eye trussed too bee a joule.

The checker pours o'er every word

To cheque sum spelling rule.

Bee fore a veiling checker's

Hour spelling mite decline,

And if we're lacks oar have a laps,

We wood bee maid too wine.

Butt now bee cause my spelling

Is checked with such grate flare,

Their are know fault's with in my cite,

Of nun eye am a wear.

Now spelling does knot phase me,

It does knot bring a tier.

My pay purrs awl due glad den

With wrapped word's fare as hear.

To rite with care is quite a feet

Of witch won should bee proud,

And wee mussed dew the best wee can,

Sew flaw's are knot aloud.

Sow ewe can sea why aye dew prays

Such soft wear four pea seas,

And why eye brake in two averse

Buy righting want too pleas.

Now THAT'S funny!!

Because of the omission of that "s" on an info sheet once, my group was actually announced at a parade as "The New Orleans Drum Corporation".

I once heard a parade announcer ID us as a drum corpse...

....the illiterate/ignorant don't know how to handle the S either...

Yea, I couldn't tell what was worng untell you said something. The 'b' on the shirt does look like the 'v' in the corps logo/name in the upper left.

ROFLMAO That reminds me of an article that I read on dci.org a couple years back. You know, one of those segments where they interview the kids. Anyway they interviewed one young gal who just got back from a show where the Caballeros put on an exibition. Maybe she was a bit confused or it was just a typo, but she thought it was really cool to see the "Cavalieros". Man, that kept me laughing for days.

I wonder if that's really a "b" or just a fancy v in whatever font that is. I copied the pic and blew it up as best I could with my cheap free image editing software, and the proposed "b" isn't really completely closed in the top of the loop part of the letter. It would be nice to see what font that is, and compare the b to a v in that font. I can't imagine the Cavies selling the shirt without some sort of disclaimer to a spelling misprint.
