CubanM11 Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 no big deal to some is a big deal to others...one man's holy cow is another's quarter pounder with cheese. fwiw, if I was the Cadet with that moron at my feet, I would've stepped on him, or kicked him in the face. Luckily that Cadet had more composure than I would have. On the other hand, everyone on DCP wants old school drum corps, right? exactly and how most people here dont appreciate the change in drum corps sounds. all people want is MORE MORE MORE and no quality. you should be trying to sound like you would sitting down correct because I think we can all agree that is how you make the BEST sounds. then why is it we accept anything worse than that just because we are marching. the same corps that take retreat so seriously every year dont always treat musicality with that same respect. my two cents.

CubanM11 Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 Bruno responded to complaints about last year's retreat by saying that the corps was acting "in character" and that people needed to take things less seriously. perfect response.

JayM Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 I can only guess that someone who would do such a thing probably wasn't very well-liked by the other corps members anyway. Sucks to be him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thePerfectbuzz Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 the same corps that take retreat so seriously every year dont always treat musicality with that same respect. my two cents. like 'last year's champion' seriously?? or like the '9 time DCI Champs' seriously?? enlighten me... because both are two of a handful of corps that bring the 'serious' approach to retreat, and sound pretty good from where i'm sitting.

jpaul Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 (edited) Not one to spread rumors but it has happened again this year! Last year the Cavies (not sure which venue) did their annual "streaking" of BD. Didn't end so well as it was rumored that as they rounded the corner after streaking past the buses, they ran smack into staff and some BD alumni - ouch! This year, not to be outdone, while in Denver (post performance) one of the Cavies decided to steal a BD uniform out of the uniform truck (possibly a rite of passage for a rookie). It was discovered, the Director graciously apologized (as did the dubious thief) and it is rumored that one young Cavie is no more! Ah...youth and it's extraordinary insanity. Apparently, you are one to spread rumors. Edited July 19, 2009 by jpaul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScribeToo Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Completely agree, the entire corps should have been sent home after retreat. Not for anything (and maybe I missed your sarcasm) but.. it was finals retreat.. the entire corps WAS sent home after retreat. Wasn't everybody?
